Today, I’m thrilled to announce my interview with Tony nominated actress Kathleen Chalfant. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including how Tony Kushner invited her to be part of ANGELS IN AMERICA, a letter from Larry Kramer during JUST SAY NO, how a fight broke out during her Broadway debut in DANCE WITH ME, the enormous difficulties of working with John Dexter on M. BUTTERFLY, taking on the role of Ronald Reagan in Sarah Ruhl’s PASSION PLAY, how she ended up on staff at Playwrights Horizons, the production of MILLENNIUM APPROACHES that was dubbed MR. TOAD’S WILD RIDE, performing in workshops of FINDING NEVERLAND and FIRST DAUGHTER SUITE, and her most memorable reviews from John Simon, Michael Feingold, and more. You won’t want to miss this conversation with a true theater veteran.
