David A. Holcombe
Graduating with a BS, he continued to pursue his passion for travel with a trek across europe. Eventually landing in Ireland, he lived, travelled and worked for three months on the Emerald Isle. Returning stateside, he began his acting career at Madison's experimental Broom Street Theater. There he had the pleasure of working with director Greg Johnson on his adaptation of Dr. Faustus as well as with acclaimed writer/director Brian Wild. David recently made the move to Chicago and became involved with Trap Door Theatre where he was the Production Stage Manager for the Midwest premiere of The Beastly Bombing and No Darkness Round My Stone as well as acting in The Swan, Howard Barker's Minna, and internationally renowned Romanian playwright Matei Visniec's Horses at the Window. An intrepid world traveller, David was drawn to Trap Door's mission and, specifically, its absurdist and european roots. He is a proud Trap Door company member. Being drawn to Chicago's independent film community, David has had the opportunity to not only star in several acclaimed films as an actor but also work behind the scenes as a writer, director and, most recently, a producer. He appears in such films as: Klya's Law, Blood Kin, Hitwoman:Assassin, Finding Virginia and stars in the festival bound feature film Beneath the Horizon. He produced and starred in the feature length dark comedy FUGUE. David continues to train and develop as an actor and learn from other passionate artists.
