This is the seventh Lost Colony season for Stuart Parks II, and his second time in the floppy hat and beard of Old Tom. In previous seasons Stuart played Governor White, who had the same floppy beard but with much more serious hats.

When not on stage at the historic Waterside Theater, Stuart has been seen on the local Theatre of Dare stage where he has worked with the community theater since 2009. He can also be seen in an English classroom at Manteo High School, but you can’t catch that show unless you’re a student.

He is beyond thrilled to return as the beloved, shambling old drunk of the Lost Colony.

He is also excited to be playing Old Tom again as well.
