Jacob Wahba

Director
Jacob is the producing Artistic Director at re: Draft Creative, who incorporates his diverse experience in entertainment (film and theater) to create orginal or newly imagined work with other emerging artists. He recently directed Charlie (Who Paints Art) at Holmdel Theater Company, 24 Hour Kiss Club’s sketch comedy show at Caveat, and Beauty Runs on Light Feet by Kenneth Lonnergan at Muhlenberg College. Associate directing credits include the Drama Desk Nominated “Baby” with Richard Maltby, “The Pink Unicorn” starring Alice Ripley, and “Joseph and the Tecnicolor Dreamcoat” at Axelrod Performing Arts Center. As a producer, he has worked on Make-A-Wish’s “Power of a Wish Gala” with Tina Fey and the Halloween special of the revived kids show “Wonderama”. He currently can be found working in the production office of Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” and “Up Here.” He is grateful to be creating with passionate people and with the support from his loving family.

Patrick Daly

Creator
A working writer/performer with experience that spans various mediums and genres, Patrick looks at storytelling as a matter of recycling — an act of consuming what information we can from our world and repurposing it into tools of expression. Patrick’s original plays, including “Family Values!”, “WRAPPED”, and “Charlie (Who Paints Art)”, have been produced in various venues, from regional theatre to colleges and even, most recently, cabaret spaces such as The Green Room 42. His screenwriting work has formed the foundation for various upcoming shorts, such as the black comedy “SHEP” and the psychological thriller “Mothlight Project”. Regardless of the genre or medium he finds himself working in, Patrick is always driven by a fascination with the ways in which people communicate, and, more importantly, the ways in which we don’t. Language, social roles, and the frustration inherent to the subjectivity of the human experience color all of his works, from standup to farcical theatre to grim & gritty crime dramas. Through re:Draft, Patrick sees an opportunity to help shape the current cultural landscape through collaboration with fresh artistic voices, both like-minded and otherwise.
