Kevin Hamill

Kevin Hamill has performed on local stages for over fifteen years. Serving as Technical Director on the Merlyn Productions Company Staff for the first five seasons (2009-13), he became one of the company's pioneering staff members alongside John Chase and Leila Marston, and supervised scenery on more than twenty productions.

Kevin most recently appeared onstage as Death in “The Game” when the company presented its Morality Plays triple-feature in October 2011, and was also seen playing our villain in the “Hearts and Flowers” melodrama at Dramatic Showcase 2011.

Kevin's beginnings were in 1996 with local children's theatre company Fantasy Theatre for Children. As one half of Chase & Hamill on the local comedy scene, Kevin can be found portraying funny man Lou Costello of Abbott & Costello fame, alongside performing partner John Chase (Bud Abbott). Their most recent hit was “HEY ABBOTT! - Another Classic Comedy Tribute Show” at the 2011 Winnipeg Fringe Festival, where Kevin also directed “LAW & ORDER: Nursery Rhyme Unit” for HamDad Productions at the Kids Venue.

Behind the scenes, Kevin has also stage managed for Fantasy Theatre, C.G. Productions, and RGI International; however acting remains his perpetual passion.
