Scott Stoney   Though he is known more for his stage work with over 40 years of professional credits, Scott is no stranger to teaching. He earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Bowling Green State University in Education. After settling in Dayton in 1981 he began his teaching career with the Theatre Department of Sinclair Community College then chaired by Dr. Robert MacClennan. After several years that adjunct position evolved into an Artist-in-Residence position with Scott either directing the students or acting with them every year. This arrangement provided Scott with many unique opportunities to grow as an artist with leading roles in HAMLET, ANTIGONE, WAITING FOR GODOT, THE TEMPEST, THE LION IN WINTER and others. His directing credits on the Blair Hall stage form an eclectic collection including LOVE'S LABOUR'S LOST, THE INFERNAL MACHINE, UNDER MILKWOOD, THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST and ARSENIC AND OLD LACE. He continued in this capacity until 2003 and now serves as adjunct instructor at Sinclair as well as Wright State University, the University of Dayton and Clark State College. He also coaches privately, helping actors of all ages to get the part, the show, the job, or the school. He has assisted over 75 students in getting into the college program of their choice. An accomplished pianist, Scott enjoys working with musical students the most. As a resident artist and founding member of The Human Race Theatre Company, Scott has performed many functions. But he is most often remembered for his on-stage roles at the Loft and the Victoria. Victoria shows include among others SHENANDOAH, WAIT UNTIL DARK, THE BOYS NEXT DOOR, and GREEN GABLES. Recent HR productions include PERMANENT COLLECTION, TWELFTH NIGHT, AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY, and BROTHER WOLF. His career has given him many opportunities to travel – a European tour in Maury Yeston's PHANTOM with an international cast; a world premiere production about the Native American storyteller, TE ATA, in her home state of Oklahoma; and the Human Race production, CONVENIENCE that premiered in Dayton and Sacramento. From his acting credits, a few of his favorite roles are Werner Heisenberg, from COPENHAGEN; Horton the Elephant, from SEUSSICAL; Roy Cohn, from ANGELS IN AMERICA and the title role in SWEENEY TODD.
