Best Local Theatre Director

David I.L. Poole

Teaching, directing, papier-mâché, hunting down gorgeous true vintage costumes—is there anything David I.L. Poole can’t do (and if there is, when the heck would he have time to do it)? From Savannah State University to The Collective Face to Asbury Memorial Theatre to Savannah Children’s Theatre, you can see Poole’s fingerprint all over Savannah’s stage productions—it’s a mark of excellence.
