Our mission
One platform.
Every stage. Every scale.
Vivorium exists to give every production, at every level, the operational foundation the work calls for.
Why Vivorium exists
Theater has always run on commitment, creativity, and an extraordinary capacity to make something extraordinary happen. Every production, from the first rehearsal to the final curtain, is a testament to what people can accomplish when they care deeply about the work.
Vivorium was founded on a simple belief: that the same energy and imagination that goes into every production deserves an operational foundation built to the same standard. Not borrowed from another industry. Not adapted from tools built for someone else's workflow. Built from the ground up, for the performing arts, at every level and every scale.
That means K-12 directors running their fourth production of the year with seventy students and one planning period. Community theater artistic directors stretching a volunteer cast across a six-week rehearsal schedule. University programs training the next generation of performing arts professionals. Regional theaters managing a season of overlapping productions with a staff that never quite feels large enough.
Every one of those productions is real work. Every one of those directors brings the same resourcefulness, the same powerful imagination, and the same commitment to the craft. Vivorium is built to match it.
Built for the practical needs of powerful imaginations.
The team
Who's building Vivorium
Britt Nichols
Chief Executive Officer
He has spent his career at the intersection of technology and the organizations that depend on it. As both a chief executive officer and chief revenue officer of software and services companies, he has led teams through the full arc of building something from early stage through significant growth, learning along the way what it actually takes to earn the confidence of people who are deep holders of knowledge in their own domain and have no patience for solutions that do not respect that expertise.
His connection to the performing arts began long before the business career. A graduate of Carnegie Mellon University, he made his first professional stage appearance at age eight, playing Theo in Pippin at Theater on Park. That beginning grew into a lifetime close to the stage, and a genuine understanding of what a production actually demands, not from the outside looking in, but from having lived inside that world.
Vivorium is the convergence of both. The discipline of building software that works, and a deep belief that the performing arts community, with all the resourcefulness and powerful imagination it brings to everything it does, has always been ready for a platform built to match it.
Corey Miller
Chief Revenue Officer
As a former CMO, EdTech executive, and advertising agency strategist, Corey has led teams through every dimension of modern marketing, from consumer insights and brand strategy to product innovation and growth.
He has always believed that the best marketing starts with a deep respect for the person on the other side of it, and has built his career around that conviction. He carries that same user-first philosophy into the classroom as adjunct faculty at the University of Central Florida, and onto stages as a speaker on marketing and higher education.
He brings 25 years of marketing and revenue leadership to a platform he genuinely believes in, built with the same care, craft, and respect for its audience that great marketing has always demanded.
Advisory board
Vivorium's advisory board brings practitioner knowledge from across the performing arts and the industries that serve it. Every product decision is tested against their experience.

What we are building
VivoCue is where we start. It is not where we stop.
Vivorium is a platform, not a single product. VivoCue is the foundation: production management for directors and stage managers at every level of the performing arts. What comes next will extend that foundation deeper into the business of running theater, the experience of attending it, and the professional lives of the people who dedicate themselves to it.
We are building carefully. Starting with the product the work calls for most, and expanding only when we can do it with the same level of craft and commitment the performing arts community brings to everything it does.
Be part of what comes next.
Whether you direct, design, choreograph, run crew, teach, or perform, Vivorium is building for you. Start with VivoCue. Join the founding community. And stay close as the platform grows.
