Owner/ Producer/ Artistic Director/ Actor Since the age of 14, Kris has been involved with the theater
and the stage in one way or another. Kris has been acting since
he was a child, where he studied at the Educational Center for
the Performing Arts in New Haven, but started directing in 1983.
Years later, Kris had formed his own company, KEM Productions,
LLC in 1987, in which he produced shows throughout the Connecticut-area
and its many stages. Whether performing in it, directing the
performers in it, or running the business that brings the audience
in, theater is his everything. He even had the opportunity to
work with some of Broadway's biggest stars at the Tony-Awards
on Broadway in the early 1990's. Now with the sheer success
and quality of his business, the Connecticut Cabaret Theatre
brings in audiences from all of Connecticut, parts of New York,
Massachusetts and Rhode Island. When the Cabaret opened its
doors back in the Summer of 1997, it started off with an ambitious
number of 50 subscribers. Today, Kris is proud to say he has
over 600 subscribers and counting. Kris, as a business man,
is professional, organized and tremendous. As an artistic director,
Kris can pull the best out of every performer, bringing them
to their peak potential or even beyond. As an actor, he also
is superb, starring in numerous roles throughout the years.

"I believe in giving my best vision and direction to my
actors and actresses so that together we may give the best to
our audiences. It is not easy to bring to life so many characters
and tell so many stories. But over the years, nothing makes
me more proud than my theatre, my performers, and the shows
we as a team, as a business, as a stage have delivered to our
audiences." - Kris McMurray |
