What’s your favorite part of this show and why?

It’s a show about everyday people navigating the intricacies of love. Something we all can relate to.

What about this show do you think will stick with audiences?

The humor and the heartbreaking pathos.

How excited are you to be working with this incredible cast?

This cast amazes me every night. Their focus and insight into the characters is something to behold.

What have you loved about working on this production?

The laughter and the tears in equal measure.

How did you get into theatre?

I was born in a trunk in Pocatello, Idaho!

What’s your favorite thing to do in the area?

Be amused by folks who think Asheville has a huge traffic problem after living and driving in Los Angeles for nearly thirty years. Asheville has a “rush minute”.

What have you loved so far about working with Parkway Playhouse?

This is about the tenth production I’ve staged for Parkway since 2009. I also spent the summer of 1973 up here as a Junior in college at UNC-Greensboro. It’s beautiful country!
