  • President

    Pete Soper came to the Blue Slipper Board from a long career in the professional audio industry. In addition to his role at the Blue Slipper, he continues to do sound engineering and consulting across Southwest Montana, and teaching skiing during the winter months.

  • Vice President

    Born and raised in Montana, Mike Waldron was out of state for eight years as a young professional. He returned to Montana in 2005, moving to Livingston to start a family with his wife Jeannette. He's always been extremely proud to live in a small town with TWO Shakespeare/Globe style theaters, and wanted to help The Blue Slipper get back on its feet post-pandemic. As the Vice President of the Park County Theatre Guild, Mike oversees maintenance and HR at the theater. You'll often see him - recognizable by his distinctive beard - upstairs running hospitality or downstairs at the box office on show nights.

  • Treasurer

    Steve Leuzinger's love of theatre was originally nurtured in his hometown of St. Paul, Minnesota. He and his wife, Peggy, along with their two sons, moved to Livingston in 2004. He is delighted to have the opportunity to share his talents at the Blue Slipper Theatre, both on the stage and as a member of the Board. He has appeared in Sylvia, Baskerville, True West, and Tiny Beautiful Things at the Slipper. You may also recognize him from one of the ten shows he has been in at the Shane Center. He served on the Board in 2019, but a move to Great Falls ended that stint. Fortunately, in 2022 he was able to move back to Livingston and re-engage with our town's fabulous theatre scene. He rejoined the Board in 2023 and now serves as the Slipper's treasurer. In conjunction with that role you will often see him handling the theatre's box office duties.

    As a board member, Amy brings a wealth of experience and a global perspective to our wonderful Livingston theatre community.

  • Steph Clewis is a theater enthusiast and musician who resides year-round in Livingston, MT. Steph's passion for community theater and expanding programming for young thespians lead her to become a board member on the Blue Slipper in late 2019. She, along with several other dedicated individuals, helped keep the lights on at The Blue Slipper throughout the era of Covid-19.  As soon as some in-person programming was possible, she championed "Live at The Blue Slipper", spotlighting local musical acts from Bozeman and Livingston once a month. Steph continues to serve on the board and bring her expertise in IT to manage the Blue Slipper's electronic resources. 

  • Ted Robinson is a dedicated and versatile professional with over a decade of experience working in the performing arts as a director, sound engineer, and sound designer. He has worked as a location audio engineer on documentaries (notable projects include Vice on HBO and Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia), eighteen feature films, and hundreds of commercials and short films. . Ted is also passionate about education and sharing his technical experience. As an adjunct professor at The New School in New York City, he taught documentary production techniques to graduate students. He is also a musician. (Check out his local band, The Beagles!).

    As a board member of The Blue Slipper, Ted is excited to broaden the scope of the theatre’s offerings to include opportunities for experimentation and arts performance for community members of all ages.

  • Lisa Snow has been a dedicated member of the Livingston community since moving from Virginia in 1991. Over the years, she has volunteered her time and energy to support various non-profits in the area. Lisa is delighted to now serve on the Board of the Blue Slipper Theatre, where she can contribute to programming and marketing efforts and champion the arts in Livingston. Her deep commitment to the community and passion for the arts contribute to the theatre’s mission.

  • Lindsay Aun moved to Livingston in 1998. One of the first things she did when arriving in her new hometown was to see a play at the Blue Slipper Theater. She immediately fell in love with the historic building and the intimacy of the theater space. In the early 2000s she had a role in the play DA and felt at home in the warmth and camaraderie of the theater community. After that she volunteered at the theater intermittently until her daughter Laine was born. 

    Lindsay was an employee of the Livingston School District for many years, serving as a classroom teacher, middle school counselor and finally a librarian before retiring last year. 

    Since then, she has been spending time on the Eastern Shore of Virginia and traveling with her husband, Terry. Lindsay is excited for the opportunity to serve on the board with this crew of talented, dedicated people who have brought the Blue Slipper back to its former prominence in the community.
