Ever since Joe Wahlers became part of the Encore Studio Repertory Company in 2003, he has made it his mission to shake things up. An actor who dances to the beat of his own drum, Joe provides Encore with a never-ending supply of wit, creativity, and humor that is drier than a good martini. Past roles include a familial adoptee in My Confidant in 2012; a nonbinary beat poet in Elephant in the Room in 2022; and a sarcastic secondhand store owner in A Good Cause in 2023.
