About

Alex Rogals received his PhD from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, focusing on the guiding role regionalization plays in the preservation and contemporary practice of the Japanese traditional performing art, Sagi kyōgen. He was recognized in 2017 by the Association for Asian Performance as an emerging scholar and his work has been published in the Asian Theatre Journal. Before coming to Hunter, Alex taught World Theatre, Introduction to Arts Education, and Stage directing. He also worked in arts education departments for the Geffen Playhouse and Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Los Angeles, and for Japan Society in New York. As an artist he has directed, written, and performed in theater and film productions in New York, Los Angeles, Hawai'i and Japan. Alex is deeply interested in the intersection between creativity and community, both in Japanese culture and beyond. Since coming to the Hunter Japanese Program, he has pioneered a variety of Japanese arts and culture courses which include: Japanese Contemporary Theatre, Mythology and Folklore, Detective Ficiton, Japanese Horror, Animals in Japanese Culture, and Contemporary Society and Technology. Alex received his BA from Vassar College and his MFA in directing for the stage from the University of California, Los Angeles.
