About the Directors

Mr. Bogner and Mr. Stephens Co-Head the Theatre Department at LHHS.


Mr. Beauen Bogner

Mr. Bogner graduated from Baylor University in 2001 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting Performance and is a certified teacher in 6-12 Theatre.  His favorite adage?  "You have to be wise to have wisdom."  Despite the inanity of the remark, wisdom is a quality that is vastly undervalued by our society.  Anyone can be blessed with natural talent or intelligence.  But wisdom if something far more valuable and only comes through experience, an open mind and discernment.

For those of you wondering about his first name, Beauen - the root "Beau" means "handsome" and the "en" suffix ... we have no idea.  Perhaps it was an after thought, as in, "Gee that's a handsome baby ... sort of."  The name is phonetically pronounced "Bowen", as in: Go shoot a "bow", put the cake in the ov-"en".  This year, Mr. Bogner will direct Little Shop of Horrors and Princess Jules Rules the World.


Mr. Michael Stephens

Mr. Stephens is married to Carrie Fisher Stephens. They had their first baby, Scout, last winter, and are expecting another one on the way.  He breeds Great Danes, enjoys guns and theatre.  He has nine years of teaching experience and has previously taught at W.T. White.  He is a graduate of Texas State University with a degree in Theatre Education.

Mr. Stephens will direct Piece of My Heart and the UIL One Act play this year.
