J.B. Alexander
I play men in the throes of an existential crisis (e.g. Michael Stuhlbarg in A Serious Man, Billy Crystal in City Slickers, Paul Giamatti in Sideways, Casey Affleck in Manchester by the Sea). I do both drama and comedy in such parts as teacher, doctor, lawyer, therapist, dad, journalist, detective, professor, or rabbi.
My great passion is the classic stage (Shakespeare and Chekhov, especially), and the love of my life is Franz Kafka about whom I've written several plays, including a one-man show about a struggling writer who is transformed into Kafka. I am currently adapting it for .
