For eight mysterious years Shawn Thomas Odyssey labored extremely long
hours in a 140-seat (and rumored to be haunted) professional theatre in Santa
Barbara, California. There he
worked as an actor, a musician, a stagehand, a set builder, a scenic painter,
casting coordinator, and was the person they sent into the dank, dark
underbelly of the theatre to find rusty old props and spider infested
wigs. Upon his perilous escape
from this life of daring stagecraft, he began an equally death-defying career
as a music composer for film, television, and video games, creating scores for
HBO’s Deadwood, and the
Activision/Dreamworks video game Kung
Fu Panda. As if these
daunting careers were not enough, he sought out even more fearsome territory by
writing all kinds of treacherous stories, plays, and books, and acquired a
tireless obsession for research into a subject he likes to call “The Dark
Street Phenomenon.” Mr. Odyssey is
married to a mysterious dancer whom he met while working at the haunted theatre,
and along with a passion for collecting magic wands, he enjoys playing
unusually dangerous music in a band whose name to this day remains a tightly
held secret.
