Yesterday on Out and About I talked with director Chelsea Duvall and actors Deborah Marlowe and Emma Woodward from the Stage Left production of Julius Caesar. This is going to be a very cool production which is set in a women’s prison. All the characters are either cis/trans female or nonbinary. We had a great conversation about the play. We discussed the real political backdrop on which it is set today, as well as the history of the politics surrounding the original staging and subsequent productions. Chelsea explained her philosophy of casting queer people in roles. I found her outlook quite inspiring and informative. The show opens this Friday. For more information go to StageLeftTheater.org.
Tune into Out and About every Tuesday at 4 pm on KYRS at 88.1 and 92.3 fm. Also streaming at KYRS.org. Also available as a podcast. Thanks for listening! Maeve
