Colleen Hammond Whitmore: Curating the Classics ft. Macseth & Macbeth - S5 E7
from Pardon My Success · host Meilin Fields
This week we're sitting down in Hollywood's Hobgoblin Theater with the legendary Colleen Hammond Whitmore, the one woman theatrical icon who cuts the classics down to tight, 60 minute productions and directs them all across Hollywood! Colleen not only edits, casts, and directs double cast shows (that's right, every show has TWO CASTS, performing THREE SHOWS EACH!), she also stages multiple productions at once and has brought her work to festivals like the Hollywood Fringe Festival and many more.We wrap things up by welcoming two of her Macbeths onstage (and over zoom) for Mirroring Macbeths, where both actors take on the most iconic monologues from the show. I had so much fun seeing the entire process come to life as Fleance, and can't wait to be back doing The Colleen Method this December 19, 20, and 21 as Cratchit in A Christmas Carol!!
