Noah Masterson

Hello. I’m Noah Masterson, a tech nerd, playwright, and creative-living coach based in Austin, Texas. You can find samples of my theater work, films, writing, and other miscellanea below.

About Me

I’m a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) with 20 years of firsthand experience in the corporate world, where I led creative and technical teams at Dell Technologies, Calvert Investments, and many other organizations.

I’ve also been an artist my entire life, and I love working with artists and artists-at-heart.

From there it gets a little complicated. I'm a playwright, filmmaker, occasional writer of fiction, a juggler (for real)... you get the idea.

Theater

I first got involved in theater in New York City, where my friends Joshua Spafford and Jessica Grace Wing roped me into doing music and sound design for several Inverse Theater productions.

Then I took a 25-year hiatus.

But the experience stuck with me. I loved being a part of something big and and weird, and I loved the high-stakes feeling of live performance.

In 2024 I began work on THE EGG, a full-length play about technology's impact on a woman who lays eggs and a man whose face grows unsightly feather. I completed THE EGG in 2025 and am now seeking a home for it.

I've also written several short plays and am working on a top-secret collaboration with L.B. Deyo.

Film

I have a degree in screenwriting from the University of Miami, where I was taught that the best way to get a film made was to move to Hollywood and stalk producers.

Needless to say, I did not do that.

With the advent of phone-cameras, and a crash course at Austin School of Film, I have made a few shorts that I am proud of.


DEEP FREEZE Pod
Still from DEEP FREEZE

DEEP FREEZE: A short sci-fi comedy set inside a strange corporate cryogenics facility. The film explores marriage, mortality, and climate change. (Hilarious!) Produced in 2022 as part of a "script to screen" course at Austin School of Film.


DEEP FREEZE is also a play!

YOU DONE HER WRONG: Music Video for a song that I wrote and recorded, starring my son Ivan B. Masterson.

Misc

This is where is all blurs together.

Writing

Lately I've been writing on Substack and, for coaching stuff, on the blog at Masterson Coaching.

Juggling

I have been juggling since I was 10 years old and briefly considered clown school. Nowadays I do it for excercise and sometimes post juggling videos on YouTube.

Music

I used to play in bands including the Human Oddities, Childress, the Swamp Coolers, and the Young Adults. I'm currently writing songs for a new musical cowritten with L.B. Deyo.

Just for the hell of it, here's my cover of Dwight Yoakam's "It Won't Hurt."
