David Muse, who has led Studio Theatre since 2010, will step down in 2027.
During his tenure, he:
- Oversaw a $20 million renovation of the 14th Street complex.
- Expanded programming to include more new and international work.
- Guided premieres like John Proctor Is the Villain to national acclaim.
- Strengthened Studio’s artistic vision and financial stability.
His departure comes as other major D.C. theaters face leadership changes, signaling a new chapter for the city’s cultural landscape.
