My Interview on www.TheaterInTheNow.com

8/13/2014

 
Thank you Michael Bradley Block for interviewing me for my current show, QUIET PENINSULA. Check the whole interview on www.TheaterInTheNow.com! And get tickets for the show here!


Why theater?: Acting has always fascinated me and fed my imagination. Simply by playing pretend, I get to challenge, to touch, and to entertain people; and I find that extremely fun and gratifying. Not to mention, the community that theater builds is unique and wonderful.

Who do you play in Quiet Peninsula?: Lauraine, a Detroit police officer, who is waiting for the fallout from a big mistake.

Any roles you’re dying to play?: Before I die, I'd love to tackle the mom in Next to Normal, Lady MacBeth, and Mary Tyrone from Long Day's Journey into the Night. And Sevan Greene (www.sevangreene.com), who is one of my favorite up-and-coming playwrights, has written several characters that I would love to play.

If you could work with anyone you’ve yet to work with, who would it be?: In my wildest dreams: Ian McKellen, or Martin Freeman, or Maggie Smith

Who would play you in a movie about yourself and what would it be called?: I'm gonna go with Dawn French to play me and it'd be called "Will Work For Chocolate"

What’s the most played song on your iTunes?: Don't judge me: it's usually the score to either "The Avengers", "Thor", "Chronicles of Narnia", "Dark Knight", or "X-Men: First Class". (I listen to action movie soundtracks when I workout ...and sometimes I imagine I'm a superhero on a treadmill.)

What’s up next?: After The Fringe, I'll be performing in #Serials@TheFlea, which is a popular late night show, involving hot new NYC writers and directors. And then in September, I have my annual family reunion at the Monterey Jazz Festival, where I get to relax for a weekend, stuff my face with soul food, and listen to amazing jazz.
