JESSE LENAT (Jewell Estes) is happy to be back with Floyd Collins after about three years, "It’s kinda like goin’ home." Jesse last worked with Tina as Logo in 1969 in the Humanafest ’94 at Actors’ Theater of Louisville where he also performed in Romeo and Juliet. Jesse’s other New York credits include Rent at New York Theater Workshop, The Odyssey: a stage version by Derek Walcott at the 92nd Street "Y" and most recently, at St. Mark’s Church, Hey Jack Kerouac directed by JoAnne Akalaitis which will be traveling to Brazil in June for a theatre festival in Rio De Janiero. Jesse has also appeared in many regional theatre productions, including the title role in The Rover at the Guthrie Theatre, also directed by Ms. Akalaitis. He has a B.F.A. from the University of the Arts where he is most proud of performing as Hamlet and writing his own solo show The Spirit of Woody Guthrie.
