THE TEAM
Hank Stampfl, Founder, CEO, Creative Director
With over 19 years of experience across theatre, luxury hospitality and live production, Hank Stampfl brings a distinctly theatrical point of view to experiential design.
Hank began his career on stage, performing in the North American touring production of Evita, before moving into New York hospitality with leadership roles at David Burke and Sant Ambroeus West Village. These worlds shaped his creative philosophy: the storytelling of theatre, the precision of hospitality and a deep understanding of how an experience should make people feel.
In 2016, Hank founded Revel Rouge, an experiential design and production firm creating theatrical environments and immersive experiences for brands, institutions and private clients around the world. As Founder and Creative Director, he leads each vision from first concept through final execution, bringing together the creative and production partners needed to transform spaces and tell stories.
In 2026, Hank expanded that creative vision into music, co-writing and co-producing Feel Good with multi-platinum songwriter and producer Heather Holley.
Whether transforming a space, producing an experience or creating music, Hank believes the best work doesn’t just look extraordinary—it makes you feel something.
Emma Lueders, Creative Producer & Designer
Emma graduated from Syracuse University, where she studied Fashion Design with a minor in Innovation and Design Startups. Naturally drawn to the intersection of aesthetics and experience, she discovered events as the perfect way to unite her two favorite things: design and entertaining. At Revel Rouge, she approaches each project with a creative eye and an intuitive sense of how spaces should feel, not just look.
A Revel Rouge moment that stands out for Emma was a weekend-long Thayers Skincare Brand event in Connecticut, set across a working farm and a historic schoolhouse. Being immersed in every phase of the production, from concept through execution, made it one of the most fulfilling projects she has worked on in her career.
Courtney Wood, Operations & Production Coordinator
After majoring in Marketing and Management, Courtney found event production to be a natural way to combine her interests in business and experiential marketing. As a part of the team at Revel Rouge, Courtney supports the planning and organization needed to bring creative events to life. From coordinating vendors and organizing timelines to supporting on-site production, she approaches each event with attention to detail.
Working closely with the team, vendors, and creative partners, Courtney helps keep the many moving pieces aligned throughout the Revel Rouge full-circle planning process. She brings a thoughtful approach to the work behind the scenes, helping ensure each celebration feels seamless when guests walk in the door.
