Go behind the scenes with the Wilma's Hothouse acting company
BSR Podcast, season 9, episode 6: The Wilma's Comeuppance with actor Taysha Marie Canales
Darnelle Radford
This week on the podcast, Darnelle Radford dives deep with actor Taysha Marie Canales, a Wilma Hothouse acting company member who takes us behind the scenes of the Wilma's latest co-production with DC's Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company (now extended through Saturday, December 14, 2024).
Canales reveals the Hothouse's "round robin reading" method before a show is cast, explains how director Morgan Green brought The Comeuppance to the Wilma, and discusses the show's distinctive pandemic-era context. She and Radford also talk about parenthood and theater careers, how DC audiences are different than Philly ones, why you can't hate any of the characters in this play (even if you want to), and lots more.
Don't miss this conversation as well as critic Cameron Kelsall's review of the show.
