Daddy’s home
Terry Martin Terry Martin marks a first for his return to the stage RICH LOPEZ | Staff writerrich@dallasvoice.com For those familiar with theater in North Texas, Terry Martin is a recognizable name.
He is perhaps most famous as the longtime director of WaterTower Theatre in Addison, serving in that role from 1999 to 2016.
In that time, he built a reputation throughout the Dallas and North Texas theater community as one of its most prominent and prolific directors.
And yet, he just wanted to be onstage himself. “Yeah, my preference has probably always been acting,” Martin said by phone. Now, thanks to Joey Folsom and The Classics Theatre Project, Martin is about to get back onstage, starring as Big Daddy in Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
