ABOUT US
We care about theater
Theater has always been about telling great stories. But as we seek to mount more ambitious shows, subpar tools and practices stifle our potential and hold the stories of tomorrow back.
Frustrated with the complex and redundant state of scheduling in our industry, we founded Prospero to build something better: a tool to help power the next generation of theater.
We hope you use it to create the productions of your dreams.
Our Mission
To simplify production management and empower teams to produce great works.
Team
We are a team of artists and technologists with experience across the industry, from Broadway to youth theater. For the last decade, we called the production office, orchestra pit, and green room home. Today, we’re united by our vision of building technology that offers a better way to make theater.
Naomi Fleishour
Marketing, Administration & Partnerships
Hello! I’m Naomi. Growing up in a musical household, I developed a deep appreciation for the arts at a young age. I play several instruments and dabble in songwriting when the muse strikes. A year and a half ago I joined the Prospero team, not as a programmer but as an everything-else-er. I’m excited to work on a project that makes it easier for artists to develop shows for their audiences.
These days I live in my home state of Hawai’i with my husband Tizoc.
Travis Frank
Co-Founder & CEO
Hi! I'm Travis. I spent 8 years as a theatrical music director and 4 as founder & producing artistic director of a youth theater company in Seattle. With my time away from the stage during lockdown, I taught myself how to code and joined a programming intensive, where I met Matt. After 2 years of software engineering, I left the corporate world behind to create software for the community I come from.
I currently live in The Hague, The Netherlands, with my fiancée Leonoor and our two cats.
Matt Meigs
Co-Founder & CTO
Hi, y’all! I’m Matt. Born and raised in Huntsville, AL, I ended up enjoying a full decade in the world of the arts. I acted in productions throughout the country from Las Vegas to national tours and regional houses to Broadway itself. Subsequently, my work in the software development world has already led me from a Wall Street startup to a publicly-traded database company. Along with Travis, I dream of combining my passions, aided by my extensive experience in just about every level of professional theatre, to create the theatrical management tool that isn’t just a passing fad.
