DJ Davis is a New York-based performer, writer, and producer dedicated to spreading love, hope, and joy through art. DJ holds a BFA in Theater from Youngstown State University, a certification in acting from The Atlantic Acting School Full-Time Conservatory, and a certification in Film and TV Industry from NYU Tisch.
DJ’s diverse body of work spans from performances in classics like Fences (Cory), Raisin in the Sun (Asagai), and Pride and Prejudice (Wickham) to the development of new plays and short films across New York. As the owner of Outside Entertainment! LLC, an up and coming production company, DJ aims to create unique, diverse works that spark discussions across cultural borders. “We are driven by a passion that births connection, collaboration, and creativity. That’s why at Outside Entertainment we believe in Entertainment Without Limits.”
Education holds a special place in DJ’s heart. He has taught Acting for TV and Film at Atlantic Acting School and works with young students in outreach programs with Naked Angels 3T Programming. One of DJ’s primary career goals is to open a school that provides quality arts education to underserved communities in rural areas, akin to the caliber of art programs in New York.
DJ believes art is a window into worlds we don’t know or don’t yet understand, and when we embrace art, we embrace the whole world.
