IAN MOORE (Director) learned his strong work ethic from his dad who was a lineman for AT&T and his mom was a customer service representative for a credit card rewards program. Scouts kept an eye on his potential and natural talent at Stetson College, and after a few years toiling on small stages from the Sun Belt to the Rust Belt, he finally made his New York debut on May 15, 2014. He fully grasped changing the speed of his delivery thanks to working with a New York City legend while both were on the winter-circuit in Florida. Finally cut his hair in the winter of 2017, and subsequently started winning awards for his performances. When his supporting cast doesn't bring it, he's known to belt out all of the hits on a given day. #LFGM
