TROUPE STAFF

Founder & Executive Director
DLB
David Lee Black is the creative mind behind PDT. He is also a force to be reckoned, especially when he is holding down the beats while zooming around on his lit hoverboard-powered quadzoom. He also lends his personal philosophy and artistic skill as an accomplished musician, sculpture artist, photographer and expressive arts therapist.

Director of Finance
FlowChad
In addition to his proficiency in all things “flow,” Chad “FlowChad” Anctil is a certified fire performer, best-selling author and puppeteer. Despite having the best hair in the Troupe, FlowChad is most recognizable when he is underneath his giant puppet creation, “Gumdrop.”

Director of Music
Cocktail Cote
John "Cocktail Cote" is a professional musician with a commitment to excellence. He ensures the beats are tight, and that each percussionist is hitting their mark. While he goes by Cocktail Cote, his drink of choice is the margarita.

Director of Administration
Platinum
Natalie "Platinum" Hogan plays a Zydeco washboard wearing old school thimbles. and her signature silver headband. Always ready to share her instrument with a fan, Platinum is well-suited to play what just might be the coolest piece of percussion in the Troupe.
