In Memoriam: Matthew Redden, from Zach Theatre, Austin

From Zach Theatre, Austin:

We are heartbroken over the loss of one of our dearest, Matthew Redden. Matt was not just a talented actor, but a genuine soul who deeply touched the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him. From his unforgettable performances in shows like Xanadu, The Drowsy Chaperone, and Les Miserables to the heartwarming moments he created in Mary Poppins and White Christmas, Matthew's artistry on stage was nothing short of magical.

Beyond the spotlight, he was a cherished friend, an unwavering inspiration, and a radiant presence in our lives. His dedication, passion, and the boundless warmth of his spirit enriched us all.

Today, we celebrate the extraordinary person he was. Our hearts unite in support of his family and loved ones during this difficult time. Matthew's memory will forever be an enduring source of strength, love, and inspiration. Rest in peace, dear friend.
