Actor – Producer – Game Developer
|
I'm a New York City based actor, producer and game developer living in Washington Heights. I'm originally from Corvallis, Oregon.
A member of AEA, I've worked Off-Broadway at Theatre for a New Audience, Bedlam, the John Cullum & Theatre Row. Regionally, I was a member of the 2017 acting company at the Tony Award-winning Oregon Shakespeare Festival, where I worked with Mary Zimmerman, Shana Cooper and U. Jonathan Toppo. |

"This is where the production goes from good to great. In the scene following the funeral, the mob attacks the poet Cinna. This killing, presented figuratively, is more powerful and moving than the literal killing of Caesar. A member of the mob pours a bottle of red liquid onto a white sheet, and Cinna (Galen Molk) slowly and gracefully falls into it. The crowd then begins a slow, rhythmic stomping, and with each stomp, Cinna writhes on the floor until finally he is still. When the lights came up for intermission, the audience sat for a moment in stunned silence."

"Near the end of act one, the poet Cinna (Galen Molk), is assaulted and killed by an angry mob. What Cooper, Chong Shuch, and the cast do so well in this scene is to create a horrific, but beautifully staged death scene. Molk lies on the ground as actors near him portraying the mob, kick or stomp at the stage, as Molk, withering in stage blood, contorts his body, as he creates a startling dance of death, as the poet is killed. It is a scene unlike any I’ve ever seen on stage before, that brings to bloody life the senseless and heinous death of an innocent man using dance to hammer the point home."

"Galen Molk as Garrett is part kid, part sage and totally perfect."

"Galen Molk as Garrett has a natural charm."

"The angel Michael (played winsomely by Galen Molk) is apparently not yet with the new program. He insists, with ever-increasing urgency, on asking questions that hold God to His original contract, that call on God to intervene, to alleviate suffering, to act on behalf of an ailing humanity. “But do you answer prayers?” A distraught Michael asks on his knees. The response he gets to this insubordination is to bring down upon himself a traditional act of God which, I’m happy to report, he survives with only a flesh-colored repair to his torn wing."

"The zaniest performance is Galen Molk’s school janitor Benny, who after initial reluctance, eagerly assumes his role as Johnny Chicago."

"Second only to Mr. Chaney’s performance was the acting of Galen Molk, who plays a variety of roles (Kado, Caliban, Ariel, etc.) in the changing scenes, including some of his own great reading of Caliban’s lines, a lot of muscular and dazzling movement, and even some of what might properly be described as romantic scenes."
