BIOGRAPHY

Born and raised in Texas, I have called Kansas City home since 2001. I routinely work on stages throughout the Midwest, in drama, comedy and musicals. In commercial work, I’ve played a goofy swamp monster, a goofy dad and a goofy homeowner. Typecasting is real. I’m an insanely quick study, able to learn pages of complex copy quickly. My background in improvisation means I’m able to give a multitude of varied takes to help clients realize their creative vision. Learn more at tjlancaster.com
