As a devised theater artist, Tyler strives to create works that are as boundary pushing, provocative, and challenging, as they are human, thought provoking, and vulnerable.
Drawing from his interests in dark comedy, horror cinema, arthouse film, and all things avant-garde, he is fascinated with pushing the limits of what “theater” can be and creating one of kind performance experiences.
Original works include Bleeding Profusely from the Mouth (Super Secret Arts), Live! From the Murder Room (Dixon Place), No Visitors Beyond this Point (Escape Room Center NJ), and 99 Party Games for the Apocalypse (The Secret Theatre).
