Kevin is a Chicago writer, actor and director. His published works include "Confessions of a Transylvanian," written with co-author Ronald Fox (published by Berwick Court Publishing), "Invading Nirvana: a Chicagoan in the City of Angels" (published by Fort Raphael Publishing) and adaptations of both Thomas Heywood''s play "The Fair Maid of the West" and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle''s "The Sign of the Four," the latter of which was written in conjunction with Shanghai Low Theatricals (both published by Dramatic Publishing). Apart from his writing, Kevin has been an actor on stage and screen in Chicago for over 25 years. He has appeared on stage in the roles of Salieri in "Amadeus," the title role in "Richard III," George in "Of Mice and Men," Edward in "Someone Who''ll Watch Over Me" (Jeff Award nomination, Best Actor) and Mr. Lockhart in "The Seafarer" (Jeff Award winner, Best Ensemble). Kevin is also a director for the stage, having been thrice nominated for Jeff Awards for his direction of his own "Fair Maid of the West," City Lit''s production of "Jeeves and the Mating Season," and greasy joan and co.''s "The Mandrake." Kevin has directed over thirty shows in Chicago, including an adaptation of Terry Prachett''s "Monstrous Regiment" for Lifeline Theatre, "A Moon for the Misbegotten" for Seanachai Theatre and numerous shows for the Oak Park Festival Theatre. He has also appeared on television in NBC''s "Chicago Fire" and "Chicago PD", Fox''s "Empire" and ABC''s "Betrayal."

I''m an actor, author, and stuntman. And, like most writers, I''ve been writing for much of my life. (For a snapshot, visit www.ronfoxmedia.com ). Ideas constantly pop into my head and I''ll think, "That''s a cool idea for a story," and then ignore it. When it doesn''t leave me alone, I decide to write the idea down, and then a few more words to see where it takes me. I have a few unfinished manuscripts, which bothered me until I learned it affected Mark Twain. If we don''t always finish conversations, it''s only normal a story might remain unfinished. A book is, after all, one long conversation of internal and external dialogue. I write short stories and the other, longer variety. I try to keep my website - www.ronfoxmedia - more or less up to date. My other site - www.ronaldfox.com - is a good source for older reels. And also write for a couple of other outlets. I''ll do my best to stay reasonably current with my blog and bio.

"The reason I love being connected to The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the philosophy, "Don't dream it, be it." Kevin Theis & Ron Fox have taken their love for the film and created 'Confessions of a Transylvanian' and I admire their dedication to the principles of [the film]. So glad they did it." - Susan Sarandon, Janet, The Rocky Horror Picture Show

"If you don't buy this book...YOU'RE the a**hole!" - Barry Bostwick, Brad, The Rocky Horror Picture Show

"[It is] a huge testament to the witty, swift and compelling writing style of the talented authors that the whole thing remains utterly compelling, touching and enthralling throughout....I genuinely enjoyed 'Confessions of a Transylvanian, ' and I find myself wholeheartedly recommending it." - Rob Bagnall, TimeWarp - the Official U.K. Rocky Horror Fan Club

"[Confessions] reminded me of what it's like to be young and in love with the movie and simply bursting because it's not Saturday yet. Playing the soundtrack until my family begs me to stop. And the excitement of learning the parts for the very first time...If you're interested in an insider's look at what Rocky was like "back in the day," or if you've been doing this long enough that you've started to forget what it was like to feel your heart swell as if you were in love when those lips appear on the screen, you'll enjoy this book." - Ruth Fink-Winter, RockyHorror.org

"A remarkable read [that] completely fills the quota for backstage ROCKY HORROR chronicles from here to eternity! [Filled] with steamy anecdotes and tales told out of school that reveal tons about the games of make-believe that actors and audiences love to play. I never knew there was so much texture and depth to the ROCKY HORROR craze. 'Confessions' can proudly join the shelf of insider exposѐs!" - Larry Bommer, Stage and Cinema

"Theis and Fox write with the fluidity of born storytellers--which isn't surprising inasmuch as storytelling is the essence of theater. They left me wanting more, and that's exactly how any performer wants to leave his audience." - Jack Helbig, Chicago Reader

"'Confessions' takes us from the hilariously documented days of teenage life in the hellish monotony of South Florida through the experiences and friendships that only a diehard Rocky Horror fan would relate to. An ambitious and intimate work, worthy of a read. "Confessions of a Transylvanian" is most assuredly a labor of love." - Dori Hartley, Frank-N-Furter, Waverly Theatre Rocky Horror Cast
