Chandra Scheschy, a Shelton, WA–based legally blind filmmaker, musician, and theatre artist with a B.A. in Film and Music from Evergreen State College, is a lifelong storyteller whose creative journey began onstage in grade school. From playing a tropical bird in Monkey King to embodying Bottom in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Chandra has always embraced the joy and transformation of performance.
Their acting work includes Murder on the Nile, A Night in the Theatre, and the college parody Quisney, and their backstage experience spans ushering, props, set design, stage management, and lighting for productions such as South Pacific, The Man Who Came to Dinner, Blooming Season, Baskerville, and 1776.
Outside the theatre, Chandra is an independent filmmaker whose projects have been featured in festivals including the Easterseals Disability Film Challenge, and a longtime guitarist and vocalist who believes in storytelling across all creative mediums. Their passion for accessibility and inclusive creative work shapes their consulting. Chandra is delighted to support Wait Until Dark and its striking 1940s monochrome staging.
