Our theatre thrives because of the passion and heart of our volunteer leaders.

Kevin Clemons Jr. | President

Although he primarily constructs the sets for the shows, Kevin has graced the stage on several occasions. Throughout his past 26 years with Stage Crafters, Kevin has dedicatedly built every single set on our Stage.

"I love Stage Crafters for finding me and allowing me to express myself with my hands."

Melissa Raulerson | Vice President

Melissa is a Veteran and now spouse of a retired Green Beret who holds her degree in theater. Melissa comes to the board with experience being on the Executive Board for Yuma Community Theatre in Yuma, AZ. Melissa and her family have been helping Stage Crafters both on and off stage for the past year and look forward to many more years with the theatre!

"I love Stage Crafters because the volunteers have full time jobs/lives and still dedicate hundreds of hours to each production because they love theatre."

Chuck Harrison | Secretary

Chuck has been with Stage Crafters on and off stage for 3 years. Chuck retired from the Air Force in 2021 and works at Keller Williams Emerald Coast. His passion is musicals but has come to enjoy the technical side of theater.

"Stage Crafters is a powerful organization for promoting the arts in our community and I am grateful to be involved."

Darsi has been ‘with’ StageCrafters for over 25 years, on the board for 6 years, with the current run of 4 years. She can be found supporting behind the scenes, working the front of house, and has had the titles of Producer and Treasurer.

"I love that Stage Crafters opens it’s heart to everyone who comes thru the doors … of the Rehearsal Hall and the Auditorium."

Craig “retired” in 2022 from a 35-year career with the USAF as a senior research scientist and now works for a defense contractor in weapons simulation. He has been with us since 1987 and our business manager for more than 25 years.
