Jamie Bullins
Associate Professor, Production Manager, and Faculty Advisor Kennesaw Student Improv Society
Jamie Bullins, a native of North Carolina, received his MFA in Theatrical Design from the University of North Carolina-Greensboro and his BA in Studio Art from Campbell University. Following the completion of his formal education, he designed professionally and ventured onto academic campuses around the country, including Auburn University and the University of Florida.
Designing costumes and scenery for theatre, opera and musicals produced at such companies as the Ohio Light Opera, Riverside Theatre, and Weathervane Playhouse led him here to Kennesaw State University, where he is a resident designer, production manager, and Assistant Professor. Past productions here at Kennesaw include The Oresteia, The Triumph of Love, Macbeth, Antony and Cleopatra, Arcadia, Sweeney Todd, and the infamous Grapes of Wrath.
Six times honored by the American College Theatre Festival, he also received a Lois Garren Award in costume design by the Alabama State College Theatre Festival. During the 1994 Cultural Olympiad, sponsored by the American Committee for the Olympic Games, he received an "Abby" nomination in Arts Education by the Arts and Business Council of Atlanta for his design of The Daughter of the Sun.
He was a consultant on Rosemary Ingham's newest book, from page to stage: How Theatre Designers Make Connections Between Scripts and Images.
He holds firm to the belief that professional development in the field adds invaluably to your worth as a teacher, and he designs around town and the country with companies that include Center for Puppetry Arts, Actor's Express, Dad's Garage, 7 Stages, Horizon Theatre Company, Theatre in the Square, Swamp Gravy, Conneticut Theatre Festival and The Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble.
