Hi, I’m Wiley. I’m a bicoastal, Armenian/Assyrian/German, actor, dancer, singer, and musician.
I have a penchant for new plays, physical and devised work, re-envisioned classics, and I get really excited about reimagining what the intersection of text, movement, and music can look like.
2024 was a busy year. I played Assef in the first Broadway national tour of The Kite Runner, closing out at the Kennedy Center. It was an honor to tell that story across the country alongside an entirely SWANA cast of actors. Next up I played Orlando in As You Like It at California Shakespeare Theatre with one of the most diverse cast and crews I’ve ever worked with. I also workshopped a few new plays including Novid Parsi’s The Life You Gave Me at the Ashland New Plays Festival, Hannah Eady’s The Return, and and Adam El Sayigh’s Alaa: A Family Trilogy at Golden Thread Productions.
Up next: Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time at San Francisco Playhouse, and Pompeii, a Fosse immersive with Detour Productions.
