The Marty Show

In episode one of The Marty Show, Marty interviews performer JinHi - behold the King of Plaque!   Watch the full video version on YouTube: The Marty Show Podcast on YOUTUBE   JinHi describes being inspired by films and plays in Amberg, Germany, especially watching Jesus Christ Superstar and staging playground performances at age six. JinHi’s first official performance was as the “King of Plaque” in second grade, later landing a first college theater role as the Sheriff’s Other Man in The Tavern at Armstrong State College, and says they keep performing out of love, purpose, and storytelling.   JinHi discusses founding Muse Arts Warehouse to provide an accessible, affordable space for artists, shares a catastrophic opening-night story at the Lucas Theater during a Tennessee Williams play with an unprepared scene partner and unexpected rain effect, and gives shout-outs to Mark Rylance and Valerie America Lavelle.   She takes Marty’s poll - covers snacks, rewatches, a “count it all joy” quote, typecasting challenges, and celebrity encounters (including Sandra Bullock and Ben Affleck).   JinHi then previews her one-woman show, titled Bella, that will be performed at the Fringe in Edinburgh on August 17, with a special local preview show expected May 3 at the Savannah Theatre downtown.   YEAH, YOU TAP THAT: Here's Marty Milquetoast JinHi Soucy JinHi Soucy Rand to take autobiographical one-woman show to Edinburgh Fringe BELLA Goes to Edinburgh: A World Premiere - Kickstarter   FIND A FAVORITE SPOT IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Welcome and Introductions 00:42 Why Perform 01:28 Early Inspirations 02:27 First Roles and Breakthrough 04:21 Purpose and Balance 05:52 Creating Muse Arts 07:48 Stage Disaster Story 09:58 Shout Outs and Favorites 12:28 Marty's Poll Begins 13:17 Celebrity Encounters 16:24 Quotes Joy and Challenges 20:57 Ego Boost and Wrap Up 21:55 Current Project Bella 24:11 Final Thanks and Farewell
