Jeremy Tritchler

Jeremy Tritchler is no stranger to the theater world although the theatre world makes him do strange things. In high school, he played roles in several productions including Barnum, Carousel, Pippin and Over Here!. He then attended the University of Wyoming and became involved with the singing/dancing group Centennial Singers. At first, he was an understudy and then as production stage manager, set designer, and carpenter. During this time, he assisted in a weekend workshop with Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown, as well as being invited to work with the stage management of the Les Miserables national touring company in Denver, CO. He also had the opportunity to work with several high-caliber professionals when he was the production stage manager for the University of Wyoming’s production of Guys and Dolls.

He then married April Vester (Tritchler) and settled down. His involvement in theater was somewhat limited until his wife, playing Lucy, convinced him to be her “Schroeder” in a production of You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown. Soon after that production, he found himself working with Poison Ivy Mysteries, again due to his wonderful wife, where he has greatly enjoyed working with this creative group of crazies.

When not on the stage or behind the scenes, Jeremy enjoys spending time in his workshop where he can often be found creating wooden knick-knacks (i.e. children’s puzzles and Christmas ornaments). He has also made several set pieces and props for upcoming shows. He works as a geologist, which contributes to an ever growing rock collection in his shop. He enjoys spending time with friends in the hills and mountains of the West to experience all the adventure nature has to offer. He is currently contracted with Kennecott Copper.

Jeremy has previously appeared as a terrified Ron Weasel in Twilit, and the Full Blooded Princess; “loveable” Director Iggie Ego in Lights, Camera, Murde; drunken Doc Ezekiel “Zeke” Holyday in Justice at the Gold Dust’; and physically confused Minnesota Mickey in Curse of the Scarab.

This holiday season, Jeremy will be appearing in his fifth Poison Ivy production, as Billy Scott in Club Mystique, alongside his talented wife, April, in their third mystery together. “I love working with such a creative group of talented artists, but the real joy for me comes when I know I have made one person smile. When that happens, then all the time spent working up to that moment, was time well spent.”
