Tony-nominated producer Christopher Massimine picked as new managing director of Utah’s Pioneer Theatre Company

A New York theater producer who helped shepherd two Tony-winning Broadway shows has been picked to run the business side of Utah’s Pioneer Theatre Company.

Massimine will take the job that has been filled for 28 years by Chris Lino, who announced last year he is retiring, prompting a 10-month search for his successor. Lino’s last day is June 30.

In a statement, PTC’s artistic director, Karen Azenberg, called Massimine “a creative business leader who brings skills and a set of experiences that will help ensure our continued growth in a changing professional theatre environment.
