Erica Andracchio

Executive Director

I like to think of myself as "a woman with many hats". I am always busy, and if I'm not I'm bored. I'm not only an actress but a stage manager as well with Left Coast Theatre Company in San Francisco. I've also started a journey as a playwright with Left Coast and hoping to broaden those horizons.

Neil Higgins

Neil is a California native who graduated from San Francisco State University with B.A.’s in Theatre and English Literature. He has also undergone various theatre training at The University of Hull, UK; The Hull Truk Theatre, UK; and The Globe Theatre, UK. He has written, acted, directed, and produced with several theatre Bay Area theatre companies in the decade and a half that he has lived in SF.

Neil first worked with Left Coast Theatre as an actor after responding to an audition notice. In the following years, he has also written, directed, built props, and become a member of the steering committee and one of the original board members. In his “civilian” life, Neil is an office administrator and has worked in as many industries as he’s had jobs. He currently works at a multi-practice law firm for the immigration practice group.

Chris Maltby

Don Savoie
