Artist Profile

Casey Long is proud to be a Chance Resident Artist and co-founder. Recent Chance acting credits include The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, the OC premiere of Theresa Rebeck’s Seminar, Samuel Hunter’s A Bright New Boise, the OC premiere of Sarah Ruhl’s Passion Play, Southern California Premiere of Reborning, and the West Coast Premiere of Nerve. He has also directed four shows at the Chance as part of the Holiday Literature Series — Anne of Green Gables, Little Women – The Broadway Musical (OCTG Nominations for Best Musical and Best Direction of a Musical), The Secret Garden: The Musical, and Jane Austen’s Emma, The Musical (OCTG Awards for Best Musical and Best Direction of a Musical). Recently, Casey has expanded into audiobook narrating, with five releases coming in 2026, including “The Hazard and The Hitman,” “Back to Love,” “Beautiful Obsession,” “Knock-Down, Drag-Out Dirty,” and “The Red Rocks.” He has also directed two short films: “Hecker(s)” and “Catharsis” as part of Crazy Cocaine Mouse Productions. He is excited to return to the Chance stage (even for two nights!) for the first time since 2023. As always, his performance is dedicated to Dork. She knows who she is…
