Among the better known actors that have performed multiple times at the theatre are Priscilla Lindsay, former Assistant Artistic Director, Scott Wentworth, a founding member, and John Henry Redwood, who would later pass away when touring a one-man show he premiered in 2001 at Indiana Repertory. This show, "Looking Over the President's Shoulder", was commissioned by James Still (playwright), the IRT's Playwright in Residence. This play is the true story of Alonzo Fields, who served as a butler to three presidents of the United States. Another playwright who has written works on IRT commissions is Charles Smith, including "Les Trois Dumas" and "Sister Carrie", and last season's "Gospel According to James". Another actor, Johnny Lee Davenport played Deputy Marshal Henry in "The Fugitive" and "U.S. Marshals", as well as playing the title character in Othello. Tim Grimm makes regular appearances in the theatre, often, but not always, as a rural sort of character.
