Eric Johnson

As a child growing up in Livermore, Eric was always restless, bouncing off the walls and showing an early interest in show business. In pursuit of his dream, he trained in musical theater, dance, sports and circus arts. After giving show business a try in LA, he returned to school for his undergraduate degree in accounting and graphic design, skills he has used extensively in his work life ever since. Professionally, Eric has woven his love for the arts together with his technical savvy in the entertainment industry. Over the past 20 years, he has worked on multiple Broadway tours, corporate fundraisers, conferences, international music festivals and dance festivals that have taken him around the world. Eric has worked periodically at the Bankhead Theater since it opened in 2007, when he worked backstage, marketing, and accounting. He officially assumed the permanent role of Director of Operations in March 2020.
