Eric Slater has been a company member of Rivendell Theater Ensemble since 2006 and is proud to call Rivendell his artistic home.  He has appeared in Silence, Expecting Isabel, and Self Defense, as well as numerous workshops, staged readings, and the 2007 and 2008 Fresh Produce series.  He was most recently seen as Paul Barrow in the critically acclaimed production of Permanent Collection at Madison Repertory Theatre (WI).  In Chicago, Eric was also seen in the Court Theatre’s production of What The Butler Saw as Sgt. Match, and as Honus Wagner in the Chicago Children’s Theatre’s production of Honus & Me at the Goodman Theatre. Other Chicago credits include: Revenge of the Space Pandas, also at Goodman Theater; Spite For Spite, Butley, and Misalliance at Writer’s Theatre Chicago; Major Barbara at Remy Bumppo Theatre Co.; Measure For Measure at Next Theatre; Hunchback at Redmoon Theatre; and Twelfth Night at Nobel Fool Theatricals, among many others.  Film credits include Inside directed by Scott McCall, and Melting Crayons, which he also produced.  Although Eric now calls the Lower East Side of Manhattan home, he looks forward to continuing his involvement with Rivendell for as long as they’ll put up with him.
