Matt Trickey
Matthew Trickey has been playing in the public pool that is the Yakima Valley arts scene for nearly half his life (always with one hand firmly clutching the edge of the shallow end). He is a graduate of Selah High School and a former Selah Player, performing comedic parts in three seasons’ worth of plays, including touring Children’s Theatre productions. “Acting in Children’s Theatre was a real treat,” he explains. “Getting to be a goof in front of itty-bitties and missing class to do it? That’s a no-brainer.” Out in the real world, his past work includes roles in “Book of Days” at YVCC, “Tony ‘n’ Tina’s Wedding” at the Capitol Theatre, and previous Zonta Murder Mystery productions “Ooops!” and “And Then There Was…” at the Yakima Convention Center. Today, in addition to being a member of Manic Thunder, Matthew can also be seen on various street corners throughout Yakima holding a hand-written sign that reads “WILL WORK 4 ATTENTION”.
