Bespoke Theatricals has announced an expansion of its leadership team. David Roth and Danielle Saks, both longstanding personnel of the Broadway general management and executive producing firm, will now serve as partners, working alongside longtime partners Amy Jacobs and Devin Keudell.
Roth’s 17-year tenure with Bespoke has included general management positions on “Mamma Mia!,” “Back to the Future,” “Tina: The Tina Turner Musical,” “Tootsie,” “Angels in America,” “Cats,” “Groundhog Day” and “School of Rock.” Prior to joining Bespoke, Roth worked at the Charlotte Wilcox Company and the Producing Office.
Saks’ Bespoke résumé is similarly storied. Since joining the organization in 2009, Saks has served in a general management capacity for “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” (the Broadway, San Francisco and national tour mountings), “Stranger Things: The First Shadow,” “Hangmen,” “Back to the Future,” “The Ferryman,” Mike Birbiglia’s “The New One” and “The Color Purple,” among others. Beyond general management, Saks previously served as the assistant company manager on the original Broadway production of “Mamma Mia!”
“For years, David and Danielle have served as exceptional general managers, playing a key role in shaping our productions and supporting our clients,” said Jacobs and Keudell in a joint statement. “Their leadership, integrity and shared vision have long aligned with the values that have guided our company’s growth over the past 25 years. We’re proud to formally unite as partners and look forward to continuing to build on the strong foundation we’ve created together.”
In addition to its quartet of partners, Bespoke’s staff comprises general managers Kate Egan, Matty Cogliano and Michael Demniak, associate general managers Taylor Courtney, Lisa Jaeger, A.J. Orth and Kiana Alexander, assistant general managers Liam Bierley and Caroline Knapp and office manager Jae Weit.
Founded in 1997 by Nina Lannan as Nina Lannan and Associates, the firm became Bespoke Theatricals in September 2011. Bespoke is currently represented on Broadway by “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” “Mamma Mia!,” “MJ” and “Stranger Things: The First Shadow,” as well as the upcoming “Beetlejuice” and “The Lost Boys.” On the road, Bespoke is represented by “Back to the Future.”
