Performer & Creator

Welcome

Hello and welcome to my website! My name is Demitri Magas (he/him), and I’m a performer and creator based in Chicago, Illinois. On this website, you can find information about the work I have done as an actor, model, and creator.

I am a recent BFA Acting graduate from Millikin University’s 2024 class. Before I graduated I made my first Chicago theatrical debut in Jeff and Shelly, directed by John D Hancock, which performed at the Theater Wit in 2023. Since then, I have become a company member of the Chicago Conspirators: a neo-commedia dell’arte troupe.

Actor

In high school, I enjoyed taking photos with my friends at random spots around my hometown. What started as a fun hobby grew into something more serious when I began modeling for art tech students' portfolios. In 2022, I signed with a print agency in Chicago and have been modeling for various ad campaigns over the past three years.

Model

When I'm not performing, I enjoy creating new artistic experiences for my peers and community. I've had the pleasure of assistant directing several intimate theatrical productions and taking on administrative roles in community-based theatre organizations such as Shakespeare Corrected and 1901 Productions.
