Richard Comeau

Artist Profile

Richard is a caregiver specializing in clients with dementia. In his spare time, he has appeared in more than 120 plays and musicals since 1974. Last seen in the Maverick Theater’s “The Killer Angels,” he is also a veteran of over 20 Chance Theater productions since 2000, his favorites being “Assassins,” “The Diary of Anne Frank,” “Coyote on a Fence” and, of course, “The Eight: Reindeer Monologues.” As always, he thanks his parents, Bob and Sophie, without whose sincere cooperation this actor wouldn’t have been possible.
