AGENT BIO
SCOTT WOJCIK
Originally from Bristol, RI, Scott has lived in NYC since 1992. He attended Bentley College in Waltham, MA where he studied Management & Marketing and did his graduate studies in Arts Management at Texas Tech University. While at TTU, he also did extensive undergraduate course work in acting and directing which led him back to performing. Upon moving to Dallas, he worked at the Deep Elum Theater Garage and then booked a national tour. Following the tour, he moved to NYC. He supplemented his acting career with work as a freelance Casting Assistant for several Independent Casting offices until 1999 when he joined Charles Rosen Casting. Scott became a partner of Rosen & Wojcik casting in 2005. In 2009, the company transitioned to Wojcik | Seay Casting until 2021. Now as the owner of Wojcik Casting Team, Scott and his associates continue the tradition of full service casting for theaters around the country as well as tours and all forms of talent-based entertainment.
His work as an Arts Presenter during college and grad school led to an interest in producing. To further that interest, Scott aligned his skills with two partners to form CRW Productions, a company that creates customized theatrical events. From 2002 till 2007 CRW produced projects that ranged from corporate fundraisers, philanthropic events to new musicals and developmental readings as well as a multi-million dollar product launch in South America.
In addition to casting, Scott pursues his interest in education by teaching audition skills and application on the concept of the business of acting. Some of Scott’s educational work includes a 10 week “Business of Acting” course and a 5 week On Camera commercial technique class. He teaches for SAG/AFTRA and has been a guest monologue coach for Vassar’s summer program, “Powerhouse”. Along with co-teacher Susan Pilar, he developed a 6 week curriculum called “FUSE”, designed to help recently graduated acting students bridge the gap between the academic and professional acting environment. Scott also works extensively with college theatre departments to help them better prepare for their NYC showcases.
