Robert was artistic director for two professional theaters, Theater NOW, Minneapolis, MN and Dreamland theater, NYC, both small professional theater and film production organizations devoted to new work, classic and contemporary progressive themes spanning multiple generations.

With the idea of Tiny Theater in Vermont, Robert is establishing free and community based resources, professional acting workshops, improvisation, storytelling, playwriting and sketch comedy workshops to build a working ensemble theater for local community performances
