"Having my first co-producer credit is the realization of a lifelong dream. Ever since I was mesmerized by my first visit to a production of Phantom on Broadway, I've been driven to be part of this incredible world. I was captivated by how such a grand, intricate production could be executed with such precision and beauty,” said Regian.“This experience sparked a passion in me to explore every aspect of producing world-class theatre. Becoming a co-producer allows me to channel that passion and enthusiasm into something tangible. This journey has been made possible by the unwavering support of those who have believed in me along the way. Bringing together individuals from different parts of my journey to celebrate and champion the art form I love is truly a dream come true."
With these lauded co-producing credits now part of his extensive vita, Regian launches Regian Entertainment, a boutique firm focused on the many layers of theatrical business from producing, general management, consulting, event management to investor relations with more to come.

Although Regian's love affair with theatre began in his childhood in Tyler, Texas, it wasn't until he moved to New York City for an internship with the Broadway musical The Prom that he realized his passion could become his career. Within just a few weeks, he was promoted to a full-time position with The Prom's producers, Bill Damaschke, Jack Lane, and Dori Berinstein. Quickly transitioning to working on the smash hit Moulin Rouge! The Musical, Regian managed the New York headquarters for Global Creatures, the Australian production company behind the show. These experiences provided invaluable learning opportunities and set him up for future success.
The pandemic brought Regian back to Texas and to Austin, where he spent three years working at ZACH Theatre before attending the 2023 Tony Awards® stirred his passion for producing. That role of producer has empowered Regian to bring together investor groups from different aspects of his life and ignite a synergy that creates theatre in New York City and beyond.
“Hunter has everything it takes to be a successful Broadway producer: smarts, kindness, impeccable taste, and most importantly, patience and humor,” said three-time Tony Award-winning Producer Jack Lane.“Watching Hunter's rise on the Broadway scene has been tremendously gratifying. He is doing everything right to claim his path in NYC. Hunter is what I call 'old school' and in this day and age, that's rare. Hunter does this for the work, the craft, and his care and concern for the future of theatre. He both understands and appreciates the history of theatre; thus, he will be able to move the industry forward.”
Additional projects and more on Regian Entertainment to be announced at a later date.
