The No Proscenium Podcast

So, time to come clean: last week's episode was "in character." A kind of epilogue to the fantastic Hamlet-Mobile produced at this year's Hollywood Fringe Festival. This episode is a real--no really--interview with the cast and actual creators of Hamlet-Mobile. Producer Monica Miklas and writer-director Lauren Ludwig join the actors-- Heather Ann Gottlieb, Lizzie Prestel, Hunter Seagroves, JB Waterman--and host Noah Nelson to talk about the actual creation of Hamlet-Mobile.We assure you, these are real people.Okay, one of them might be a raccoon in a human suit.All that plus a boatload of news. Seriously. Like, too much news. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
