As a queer, seventh-generation Texan, and proud NYC transplant Camron is no stranger to conflict “The best stories live in the grey areas- allow us to explore the mess.”
Trained as both playwright and actor at the University of Houston’s School of Theatre and Dance, and holding over a decade of experience on both sides of the table, Camron brings detail focused, ensemble-minded perspective to his work.
“Theatre should always compel conversation- I always look toward what is this script asking, challenging us to reflect on as an audience? How can I tell that story as truthfully as possible?
“Specificity in my craft- acting, directing, writing, all of it- that’s the secret that allows us, artists and audience alike, to see ourselves within the story.”
Camron’s goal is simple- to provoke conversations that we may otherwise shy away from. “ My hope is that my work invites audiences to take a good look at themselves and shakes them to take accountability for themselves, embrace the power of living authentically through the mess, and to celebrate our mutual humanity within the stories I tell.”

“The stellar musical talents of the cast — including Camron Alexander, Dylan Paul, Heidi Hinkel, Mike Lee, Abraham Ntonya and Patrick Poole — is a recipe for success.The majority of the evening’s best moments involved a song, the audience breaking into well-deserved applause”
“Hedda cheats, lies, seduces and steals. She doesn’t care if people like her. Watt and Alexander don’t care if the audience likes her, either. This mindset is an exciting inversion of an entire history of society plays. The team…respects the delicate structure of Ibsen’s household drama without shying away from making individual moments their own. ”
“Camron Alexander’s Allen anchors the play with a quiet, watchful grief that echoes the great realists of the British stage.”
“Camron Ross Alexander plays Scrub, a servant, turning a throwaway role into a richly comic character”
“A Midsummer Night’s Dream like you’ve never seen before- Camron Alexander reimagines the tired Shakespeare classic as a part of the Rec Room’s six-week residency festival.”
