It’s been a little while Theatre People, but we’re back with a fantastic high school and community theatre director—Adam Delka. I first began working with Adam on digital projections for his community productions of Damn Yankees, Beauty and the Beast and Wizard of Oz at StageWorks in Houston. We have some exciting plans for this upcoming season, but until then, I’m happy to introduce you to Adam—a kind and talented professional performer; and an insightful, visionary director.
Hello again Theatre People! Baayork Lee is a theatrical legend in her own time. I was so thrilled to interview her, bringing you the wisdom and life experience of decades of her impact on Broadway, the nonprofit world and beyond—as an actor, choreographer, director and more. I hope you enjoy her interview as much as I did! Ladies and gentlemen, Baayork Lee.
Hope you’re having a great week, TheatrePeople! Today I’m excited to introduce you to a phenomenal Broadway and television actor, Gene Gillette. Recently, Gene is best known on stage for his role in Aaron Sorkin’s To Kill a Mockingbird, yet his experiences run far and wide: from War Horse to MacBeth to The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time with The National Theatre. Aside from his long list of characters on stage, Gene is incredibly generous and talented. He loves the craft and the diverse elements which come together to tell a great story in the theatre. I hope you enjoy his interview as much as I did!
Welcome back, TheatrePeople! This week is a special one. I had the opportunity to interview a fantastic, innovative Sound Designer, Jessica Paz. Among many things, Jessica is the Tony Award-winning sound artist behind Anaïs Mitchell’s groundbreaking production, Hadestown. Jessica is incredibly kind and generous, and you’ll feel her deep love of live theatrical performance and the power of storytelling in every line of this. I hope you’re as thrilled by her interview as I am! Enjoy!
