ABOUT ME
My name is Mycah Hogan and I'm a physical theater artist, educator, and coach based in Providence, RI.
I work with teachers, theater artists, and organizational leaders who are ready to reconnect with their most enthusiastic, honest, and present selves. Together, we create the conditions for leading and creating with more equity, empathy, action, and joy.
​
My approach draws from 15 years as a professional actor (Roundabout Theatre Company, The New Group), 12+ years as a public school teacher and leader in the Achievement First network, and training in the Jacques Lecoq and Grotowski traditions with master teachers including Christopher Bayes and Giovanni Fusetti.
I currently serve as Academic Dean at Achievement First Providence High School and teach performance pedagogy at Brown University/Trinity Rep MFA Program and NYU Tisch School of the Arts.
​
Whether I'm working in classrooms, rehearsal halls, or boardrooms, I co-create spaces that are energizing, humanizing, and direct. I pull from embodied, somatic, mindfulness, and play-based techniques designed to restore confident physicality and genuine connection—getting people out of their heads and back into their bodies, where real presence lives.
WHO I WORK WITH
ACTORS, DIRECTORS, MOVERS, and THEATER-MAKERS looking to explore clown and re-ground your practice in heightened physical impulses, kinesthetic awareness, and connected vulnerability.
​
EDUCATORS and LEADERS ready to discover how performance training transforms classroom presence, management, and student engagement.
TEAMS and ORGANIZATIONS looking to strengthen collaborative culture and solve problems with creative empathy through embodied practice.
PARENTS who want to play more fully and presently with their children.
ANYONE seeking to reconnect with playfulness, empathy, and presence in daily life.
Mycah is a phenomenal instructor. He approaches this work with honesty, curiosity, and absolutely no judgment. He encourages us to take risks, fail brilliantly, and then embrace that flop.
I am so grateful for him and this course. This class was one of the few (perhaps only) places this fall where my year had the opportunity to bond as an ensemble, which is crucial to our class dynamic, future learning, and artistic development.
