Sergil Adams
Founder & CEO of NewOldSchool Productions
Born and Bred in Philadelphia, founder and CEO of NewOldSchool Productions, Sergil Adams has had a passion for acting since he was a child. He worked on his craft as a youth by participating in speech tournaments while attending St. Francis de Sales school and was then formally trained as an actor at Arcadia University where he received his BFA in Acting. After years of training and trying his hand at auditions and casting calls in NewYork and Philadelphia he decided he wanted to take his career into his own hands.
With a talent for creative writing he and a fellow actor wrote TIME and he found that the best way to show his skill would be to fund and create his own unique projects. With a strong vision and purpose he created NewOldSchool Productions as a vehicle to allow his talent speak for him. When not in front of the camera or in front of the computer writing the next script you can find him in University City serving the citizens of Philadelphia as a Philadelphia Firefighter at local house Engine #5.
