Tate serves as the Springer’s Director of Development and oversees all fundraising initiatives at the theatre. When he isn’t writing grants, he enjoys being on stage or in rehearsals. Recent credits include: Shrek the Musical (Director), Evil Dead (Jake), The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (Ensemble, Assistant Director), and Sister Act (Joey, Assistant Director). He has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Performance from Columbus State University where he was on the Dean’s List and in the National Honors Fraternity Alpha Psi Omega. He loves theatre, his Nintendo Switch, and a good binge watch. If you would like to make a donation to the Springer–in any form–Tate is your guy!
