A native of Edinburgh, Scotland, Coble was raised on Navajo and Ute reservations in New Mexico and Colorado. With an interest in theatre, he ultimately ended up at Ohio University where he earned an MFA in Acting. Along the way he started writing plays and the rest is history. His The Velocity of Autumn was presented on Broadway in 2014. Bright Ideas, The Dead Guy, A Girl's Guide to Coffee, My Barking Dog, and The Giver are among his shows that have been presented off-Broadway, in all 50 states and on several continents. Some of the noted theatres that have presented Coble's plays include the Manhattan Class Company, The Kennedy Center, Playwrights Horizons, Area Stage, Actors Theatre of Louisville Humana Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festivals, Cleveland Play House, Great Lakes Theatre Festival, and the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota. He is currently a member of the Cleveland Play House Playwrights Unit. Of his work, the New York Times says "Eric Coble's hilariously funny, psychologically astute portraits hit home with rib-tickling acuity"; the New Yorker says "Coble's work is a tour-de-force with physical and verbal comedy to spare"; Variety says "A tidy little gem of comedy insanity. A toy box of a script stuffed with nasty jokes and outrageous situations"; and the Los Angeles Times says, "Adeptly lunatic, a hoot, a superior sitcom with a conscience." Coble's awards include the American Alliance for Theatre & Education Distinguished Play Award for Best Adaptation, an Emmy nomination, the Chorpenning Playwriting Award for Body of Work, the At&T Onstage Award, National Theatre Conference Playwriting Award, an NEA Playwright in Residence Grant, the Cleveland Arts Prize, two Cuyahoga Arts and Culture Fellowships and four Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence grants. While Hudson Players has not been able to share live theatre for more than a year, it has established a Hudson Players Endowment Fund, in conjunction with the Hudson Community Foundation, that will benefit the Hudson community.
