JOSHUA OLUMIDE (he/him/his) (Asagai) is thrilled to be working with New Repertory Theatre. Olumide caught the bug for performance in a small high school theatre production. After graduating, he made his debut on the big screen in the film “Detroit” where he worked with Academy Award winning director, Kathryn Bigelow. Since then, he’s appeared in various theatre, film and t.v. productions. Highlights of his theatre credits include: Macbeth (The Hanover Theatre) Romeo and Juliet (Classic Theatre of Maryland), Our Town(People’s Light), A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival). Joshua hopes to create a sense of harmony through his work.  Human connection is at its best when we let go of our judgements and allow our true spontaneous selves to flow.
