From humble beginnings as a child trying to convince his parents to let him stay up past his bedtime, to even humbler times as a teenager trying to convince his parents to let him stay out past curfew, Nathan's performance skills have continually been honed and refined. Over the past decade, Nathan has performed in more than 30 productions and 1,200 performances, and he's eager to keep adding to those numbers. Currently, Nathan lives with his beautiful wife and two beautiful little girls and attends Utah State University full-time. He is pursuing a Bachelor of Science, double-majoring in Law & Constitutional Studies and Philosophy, with hopes of attending law school after graduating. He invites you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the antics!

It’s been some of the most rewarding years to be part of the visual department at Pickleville Playhouse—something Bodie has had the privilege of doing for over 21 years. He currently runs his own full-time creative studio, Bodwa Productions, which he started 26 years ago, specializing in graphic design, web development, and video production. Bodie graduated from Utah State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and a Master’s degree in Instructional Design. For him, every day is a chance to create something new—and that never gets old. He is happily married to his sweet, bubbly wife, Kathryn, and they live in Cedar City, Utah. Together, they’re raising five fantastic, energetic kids. When he’s not creating, you’ll likely find him at Disneyland, on a cruise with his family, or tackling a cleverly designed escape room. He’s also a big fan of all things Zelda—especially the epic soundtracks from the past several years.

Gavin

Gavin McMahan

Music Composer, Orchestrator & Producer (Butch & Sundance)

BIO

Gavin is a a composer, producer, and orchestrator living in Vineyard, UT. He was born and raised in San Diego by a mom who's an award-winning musical director in musical theater and a dad who plays viola in a symphony. Growing up attending countless rehearsals and performances made music inescapable for him, but from a young age he wanted music to be HIS thing—he wanted to find his own corner of music that wasn't his mom or dad's. Although he thrived in seven years of classical piano lessons, his personal journey began when he added self-taught guitar to the mix and started forming pop-punk bands as a singer and guitarist. He later joined drumline in high school and became entirely focused on drumming, playing guitar, writing songs, and learning how to record and produce them with a humble recording setup. All the while, he was informally teaching himself how to arrange music by using various softwares to record his songs.

He graduated from Brigham Young University studying Commercial Music where he gradually shifted from a focus on songwriting and production to jazz, film scoring, and orchestration with voice as his formally trained instrument. Now he's come full circle and is being everything he's ever been as a film composer, record producer, and composer and orchestrator for musical theater. Hip-Hop, Theater, RnB, Jazz, Country, Punk, Folk, Singer/Songwriter—all of it is constantly happening in his world! Lately he's been orchestrating and composing a handful of musicals, producing for artists local and abroad, scoring indie films and ads, and reading every orchestration, counterpoint, and harmony book he can find!
