BIO
Gavin Struempler (pronounced Strump-ler) is an Alaskan-born and raised actor, educator, and voice-over artist operating out of Chicago. He attended Interlochen Arts Academy '13, spent a handful of years studying at PACE University in NY, and finally settled academically in DeKalb, IL. He proceeded to graduate from Northern Illinois University with a B.F.A. in Acting. He is now the founder and artistic director of the Anchorage-based Summit Theatre Project.
During his time in NYC, he performed with Convergence Theater Collective and is a founding member of NYC’s movement theater group Babel. He has performed recently with GreatWorks Touring Theatre, Outerloop Theatre, Jones Classical, and Goodly Creatures Shakespeare in the Park.
If he isn't outside, you can find him hanging out with his dogs or at the piano playing music with his parents. Growing up with a choir conductor dad, he developed a bug for teaching and took every opportunity available to run workshops/develop theatre with middle/high school students in the Anchorage School District. With the Alaska-based choral group Da Capo, he was lucky enough to travel and perform at several international choral venues such as St. Peter's Basilica, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Sydney Opera House.
