Participates in 5 items
Les is a playwright, costumer, and short film maker. His theater troupe, The Trans-Iowa Canal Company, has been performing since 1980, in such exotic venues as San Antonio, San Jose, Saint Louis, and other less saintly cities. At the Archon Masquerade, he can either be found helping out back stage, or presenting onstage, with multiple best-in-show awards. He also leads a team in the 48 Hour Film Project, a contest to create a film from scratch in only two days.
