Isaac Schoepp is a multitalented theatre artist based in Chicago, Illinois.
His family decided to become a juggling troupe when he was a child, and
they traveled the U.S. and Canada year-round for 12 years performing
their unique blend of juggling, humor and audience participation. Isaac
then attended Valparaiso University from 2003-2007, where he earned his
Bachelors in Theatre and Humanities. After graduating magna cum laude,
he did a semester with Sea Education Association, out of Woods Hole,
Massachusetts. He spent 6 weeks aboard the tall ship Robert C. Seamans
in the Pacific, learning how to sail and conducting oceanographic research.
Since coming back ashore in late 2007 he has spent his time in Chicago
as a freelance theatre and circus artist. He regularly works as a performer,
rigger, carpenter, and deck crew with such Chicago companies as Lookingglass,
The Actors Gymnasium, 500 Clown, Manual Cinema, and many others. Since
2011 he has returned each fall to his alma mater to direct the Christ
College Freshman Production, part of the honors program. He recently
