Meet the Composer/Writer/Director

HADDON KIME

Haddon is driven to write music and lyrics that connect with listeners and help to tell a great story.

Raised by a travel writer from California and a psychologist from rural Canada, Haddon’s music embodies the competing desires of wanderlust and belonging and reflects our contemporary reality that we are both members of a tribe and global citizens.

Haddon is an award winning composer for film and theater, as well as an accomplished sound designer. Haddon is making his directorial debut with “Lag: A Zoomsical.”

Before writing Zoom Musicals, Haddon composed music and lyrics for “The Snow Queen: A New Musical,” which won praise from The New York Times as a “fairy tale that rocks,” and “Wicket: A Parody Musical” an award winning comedy that re-frames the events of “Return of the Jedi” from the perspective of the Ewoks.

Googie Uterhardt



Born in Portsmouth, Virginia to a Navy musician and his seamstress wife, Googie’s childhood was filled with music and dress-up. It therefore stand to reason that live theatre became his lifelong passion, and he is proud to call Atlanta his home for the last thirty years. In that time he has performed in numerous plays, musicals and puppet shows including A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder (City Springs Theatre Company), Next To Normal (Alliance Theatre), Mighty Bug (Center for Puppetry Arts) and Wicket: A Parody Musical (Dad’s Garage, music by Haddon Kime). Googie’s work with special needs adults (Jerry’s Habima Theatre) brings him much joy, and he spends his days as a stay-at-home Dad and hospital clown with Humorology Atlanta (ha!). As a long-time company member of Out Of Hand Googie has collaborated in the creation of many shows, interactive games, and other unique experiences.
