As 31 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: Latina actors, it's very very rare to get a script 32 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: that speaks to you and a script that you can 33 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: see yourself in. Jack shares the importance of seeing yourself 34 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: being represented and what it did for her and how 35 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: it can inspire so many others in our community. I 36 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: have to back Jack on this completely because we both 37 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: share so much in common. When I got this script 38 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: dream House, I immediately became overwhelmed with so much pride 39 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: and happiness because I had never read a script and said, Wow, 40 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: this is me, this is my story. I know this person. 41 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: Usually I've had to adapt or fit into a box 42 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: that necessarily wasn't really drawn out for someone like me. 43 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: Sharing this moment with Jack here on MoU Anita for 44 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 1: you all definitely made us a bit emotional, grab some tissues, 45 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: but so worth the tears because they turned into tears 46 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: of how happiness over the fact that we shared so much. 47 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: This interview left me feeling so in awe of my 48 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: relationship with my stage sister. It got me thinking how us, 49 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 1: two Latino women who come from different ends of the country, 50 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: shared similar feelings of not feeling accepted or not feeling 51 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: like there was a place for us to now being 52 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 1: in a show that identified so much of who we were. 53 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: It's like we had been sisters all along, and dream 54 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: House brought us together to finally meet. It's as if 55 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: we had always been connected in some kind of way. 56 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: Saying Vita to the sisterhood.

It 68 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: does at the same time, it's nice to have that 69 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: sort of connection right where. Yes, it feels like it's 70 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: never that long ago. I know. And UM, let's just 71 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: dive right in because some of our listeners already know 72 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: about dream House and some of them don't. So, um, 73 00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: could you kind of um philist in on your perspective, Uh, 74 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: dream house A PA, give me the rundown. Well, I'm 75 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: sure as your listeners know some about dream houses, about 76 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: two sisters selling their family home after their mother's death, 77 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: and about everything that goes along with that. You know 78 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: personally and financially and culturally, what that means to leave 79 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: your home, to sell your home, and then and brings 80 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 1: up questions of what it means, um, if that includes 81 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: selling yourself also in your history, and I played Patty 82 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: Patricia who is the older sister of the two, and 83 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: she is, as Eleana writes, has very much that older 84 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: sister complex. You know, everything has to be her way 85 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: or no way, and she sees I think she sees 86 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,119 Speaker 1: life and the family is you know, it's very clear 87 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: cut for her, and she has an idea of what 88 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: needs to happen, and everyone else just kind of needs 89 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: to fall in line. And as we see in the play, 90 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: that's not necessarily where Julia is coming from, and that 91 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: kind of sparks I think a lot of the conversation 92 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: and the journey that these two go on. Um. And 93 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: then there's also the the other characters, you know, which 94 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: I are Mariana's character, you know, Tessa, but also the 95 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: mother who is very present, even though you know she 96 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: doesn't have any dialogue, she is very much present and 97 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: another character in that play. And the house. The house 98 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: is a character to it. As we see it, um 99 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: comes to life. So you guys, before shows actually get 100 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 1: put on and before you see them in their full 101 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: like fleshed out Broadway or regional whatever, tied up with 102 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: a bout kind of way, um, there are workshops and 103 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: readings of these shows that happen where people come and 104 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: just listen to people reading the script, Like actors stand 105 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: from stand on a stage and they have the music 106 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: stand and they're reading the script and people are listening. 107 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: So there are these levels before show actually becomes fully 108 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: produced and fully done. So um, for you, Jack, I'm 109 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: so in because I've spoken about my perspective of like 110 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: and personally where the show like lands for me. I'm 111 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: just curious, like, where does this show land for you? 112 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: What really like speaks to you? From to Jack? What 113 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: are the things that And I know that you and 114 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: I have spoken about this in the room with the 115 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: director and the writer and got to really flesh that 116 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: out for the characters, but just for our listeners, like, 117 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: what is the connection from dream House to you personally? Well, 118 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: dream House, you know it's about a Latina family, and 119 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: I really really related to that as we can. As 120 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: we've talked about before that the opportunity to see yourself 121 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: in a script is so rare right now. I feel 122 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: like it's been rare for me over time, and I 123 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time and a lot of my 124 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: training doing the classic plays, which you know has no 125 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: brown folks in it, and I just was very feeling, 126 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: very disconnected, and so when Elians play came into my life, 127 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: it was this feeling of finally being seen, finally being 128 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: able to tell a story that I felt like if 129 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: I had seen that play as a child, I would 130 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: have felt heard, I would have felt seen. And I 131 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: really really connected with the relationship between the sister, the 132 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: relationship between both and her mother. UM. I have. My 133 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: mother is from a very very large family and there 134 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: are four girls and four boys, and so growing up 135 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: watching her relationship with her sisters was very inspiring to 136 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: me when I was reading this play, UM, and I 137 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: wanted to bring a lot of that to the show, 138 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: you know, to bring that sort of relationship, that connection 139 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: that you really don't understand unless you have strong female relationships, 140 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: and what that offers you when it comes to growth 141 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: and feeling grounded and who you are. UM. I obviously 142 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: really related to Potty and the older sister complex. I 143 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: feel like I have a lot of that and try 144 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: and manage it as best I can. So, UM, I 145 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: have a lot of really dynamic ideas and feelings, and 146 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: I often feel like it has to be that way. UM. 147 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: But as you know, part of my own growth, I'm 148 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: recognizing that and trying to not hold on to that 149 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: so strongly that you know, you can be open to 150 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: all sorts of different things and processes. You know, having 151 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: that mentality has really done a lot for me. There's 152 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: some topics in dream House that we have talked about 153 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: in the room, in the workroom of you know, doing 154 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: the show, that I think some of our listeners might 155 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: connect to. But there was something interesting I think one day, 156 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: I can't remember when in the process we spoke about this, 157 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: but the lack of knowledge that the sisters have of 158 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: like their family, and I think we kind of spoke 159 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: about this in our personal lives because for me, like 160 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: beyond my beyond my grandparents, I know nothing else. I 161 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: also think that the amazing thing about the show is 162 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: that people watched it and their comments were I am 163 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: Julia and I am Buddy, right, because there's something in 164 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: both of them that you can relate to. I think 165 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people could relate to. Is that something 166 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: that is that portion of Huli, is something that you 167 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: kind of related to a little bit, or other parts 168 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: of Huli that you related to. Yeah, absolutely, I mean 169 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: I think it's very true. And we talked about this 170 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: in the rehearsal room, and then heard it again amplified 171 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: when the audience saw the show. Like you said that, 172 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: the audience related to both of them, and we kind 173 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: of had started saying, like everyone's a Juli and everyone's 174 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: a Buddy. You know, those two women live inside each 175 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: one of us. This desire to know your history. And 176 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: yet I don't know if it's like a resolve or 177 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: a resignment, but this kind of acceptance of not knowing. 178 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: And I know that both of those live in me, 179 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: because I, like you, you know, really can't go past 180 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: my grandparents. You know, I have vague stories that have 181 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: been relayed to me about my great grandmother and my 182 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: great grandfather, but I don't know anything about them. And 183 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: even the story of you know, how my mother moved 184 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: to this country when she was five and what that 185 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: was like building up to. I want to know, like 186 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: how you ended up here? Like first off, you're from Cali, Yes, 187 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: so from Cali, California? Like how did I end up 188 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: back in California? Or how did I end up working 189 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: on dream House? How did you end up acting? Oh? 190 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: How how did this acting bug catch you? Is there 191 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 1: are there artists in your family? I know you mentioned 192 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: that you're Mixicana, So like, is there some form of 193 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: like artistry that's around in your family? Are you the 194 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: only black sheep? Are you? Like? What's the vibe? Um? I? Yes? 195 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: So I grew up in Cali. Um My, I really 196 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: I always think about this like how did this start? Where? 197 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Where did this start? Um? And it was, honestly, it 198 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: was my grandma. It was my nana because she she 199 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: would you know, be watching her novellas every night in 200 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: her room like that was her thing. She just loved 201 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: having Yeah, she just loved having her novella time, and 202 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, everything was kind of around that. That was 203 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: her routine. And she would always call me into the 204 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: room and be showing me like, you know because somewhere 205 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: on Telemundo there's always like a Star Search version of 206 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 1: or like a Talent show version, right, and there's all 207 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: these like brilliant little kids singing their heart out and 208 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: dancing their heart out. And she would always call me 209 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: into the room and be like, look at this, look 210 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: at this. You know you could do this. And I 211 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: was like four, and I was like what I And 212 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: so I've always had her voice in my head being 213 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: like you can do this? You can do that. Look 214 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 1: at what they're doing. You could do that. And I 215 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: just I believed her, and I guess she somehow knew 216 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: before I even knew that that was somewhere inside of me. 217 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: And at a very young age, my parents put me 218 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: in theater and so I was like leaving school to 219 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: go to rehearsal, and um, it kind of turned into 220 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: it went from a summer thing to a year round 221 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: thing too, suddenly, like I was picking my high school 222 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: based on their performing arts programs and trying to figure 223 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: out where I wanted to align myself for college so 224 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: that I could you know, appease my mother and get 225 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: my degree, but also um her sue what I wanted 226 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: to do. And so it never really occurred to me 227 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: that anything else would happen. It was always focused on theater, 228 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: on acting, on being an artist, on creating work and 229 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: telling stories and what are your parents do? My my mother, well, 230 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: I like to say that they're both like artists, but 231 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: I didn't have a chance to pursue that. My mother 232 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: went to school for interior design and so she was 233 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: a beautiful I um, but she you know left um 234 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: when she and my father got married and my father 235 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: actually went to school on a painting scholarship as well, 236 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: and so I know, I have a very deep shame 237 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: about the fact that I am not a painter and 238 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: have zero skills when it comes to drawing and sketching. 239 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm always like, you should be able to do this. 240 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: Your dad can do it, and I just don't. I 241 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: don't have that gift. You can do it, you can 242 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: do it. It's go to Michaels. Let's start with like 243 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: painting one oh one that's at your window. Just paint 244 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: the landscape. I mean, I don't know how many times 245 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: I can paint grapes, but people make a whole career 246 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: out of that, they sure do. The artist is in you. 247 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: The artist lives in you. And that's from your parents, 248 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: and and that that makes total sense. The push that 249 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: you got from them, Yeah, I mean, and they've always 250 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: been so supportive and so loving of that, and um 251 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: have really been able to share in that joy, you know, 252 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: as parents, to see their childs do what they love 253 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: to do and to have success in that has been 254 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: really fulfilling for them as well. And you know, it's 255 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: beautiful on my end to watch them look so happy 256 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: and proud, you know, Yeah, for sure. And it's it's 257 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: just so great when when family supports, um what we 258 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: do because it's already like hard enough, Yeah, because we 259 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: need all the support we can get, right, Yeah, absolute 260 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: utally So. I mean you mentioned before and I've mentioned 261 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: I can't, I mean multiple times on this show, Um, 262 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: the difficulty that it is to find pieces for us 263 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: that we can connect to, that we can feel as 264 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: a part of our story throughout your career, um, your 265 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: earlier years, in your earlier time, what was that like 266 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: for you being a Latina woman who is coming in 267 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: doing these classical pieces? Have you ever felt discouraged or felt, um, 268 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: like you didn't belong And how did you handle yourself 269 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: in those scenarios? If there's any young Latina people who 270 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: are listening to this that are struggling with that right now, 271 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: how how did how did you? How do you? How 272 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: are you doing? And how are you still doing with that? 273 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: Because that's still something happening now for us, it's still 274 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: very present. I mean, thankfully there is some movement towards, 275 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: you know, being more open to diverse casting when it 276 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: comes to well, I mean specifically like classic plays. You know, 277 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: they have to decide to do some diverse casting, otherwise 278 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: you're never going to be cast in it type of thing. Um. 279 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: But okay, so there's a lot of the question and yeah, Um, 280 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: when I was in undergrad, I was very I just 281 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: liked the language of classic plays. It kind of didn't 282 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: occur to me that there may not actually be a 283 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: place for me in that world at that time, but 284 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: I really loved the language and so and I actually 285 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: had a lot of professors telling me like, you should 286 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: do more classic stuff, you should do more classic stuff, 287 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: like you kind of hold yourself more in that world. 288 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: And then I went to grad school and I was 289 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: totally immersed in it. And you know, they they cast 290 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: you whichever way they want to. We had a very 291 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: diverse group of actors, so seeing someone play a traditionally 292 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: white or Caucasian role and now having my friend in 293 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: it who is black or brown was not strange in 294 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: that in that world, so it was really great to 295 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: have three years of watching the casting change for them. Um. 296 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: But then leaving that that very isolated little bubble where 297 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, it's always going to be like 298 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: this was very strange because suddenly I was thrust into 299 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: the theater world of New York where even when they 300 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,479 Speaker 1: said they wanted diverse casting, they weren't casting diversely. Like 301 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: that cast list would go up and it was, you know, 302 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: every single person on there was Caucasian, and you were like, 303 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, where are we setting this? I thought we 304 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: were setting this, you know, in South America. What are 305 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: we doing here? And so that was very hard and difficult, 306 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: and I ran into a out of um, you know, 307 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: you're not Latina enough type of mentality, which was really 308 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: hard to process because I didn't understand how that could be. 309 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: I was like okay, or having a lot of comments 310 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: like we need you to be more Latina, and I 311 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: was like, oh, but I I am, Like that's That's 312 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 1: not something like a hat I put on, It's just 313 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: that's who I am. Um. Fortunately, now that is changing 314 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: the language around it also is changing, which can be 315 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 1: so damaging, you know, the language that's used. Um So 316 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: now finding dream House, when that came into my life, 317 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: it was such a relief and it was something that 318 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: I just could not let go of. I mean when 319 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: that when they called me and said, like long Wolf 320 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 1: was doing this work shop, it's going to be over zoom, 321 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, because we're still in the middle of covid Um. 322 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 1: I thought, okay, sounds great. I read the play and 323 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: I was blown away by Eleana's play and so moved 324 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: by it and confused by it also, but like I 325 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: was like, well, that's good. That's a good thing, you know, 326 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 1: to be confused and challenged and having to dig deep 327 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: into what this means. And then when I heard that 328 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: they were going to be doing a full production of 329 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: it at Alliance and the Long Wharf and Baltimore Center Stage, 330 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: and that Lorie Woolery was going to be directing it, 331 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: I must you know. It was very like I will 332 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: sell this house today. I was like, I will get 333 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: that part. I am going to play this role you 334 00:21:53,480 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: and I both. I read the script and I cried. 335 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: I cried, Yeah, I cried because first off, I got 336 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: chills because I you know, like those things that you 337 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 1: just read and you're kind of those scripts that you do, 338 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: those things, those scripts that you read and your life. 339 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: Oh this was made for me. It's for the first time, 340 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: like what a feeling like reading that script. And I 341 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: think that's what people feel when they go to see 342 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: the show, when they like, yeah, go experience it. They 343 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: experienced like well you and I felt when we first 344 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: read the thing. Absolutely, I mean it really it hits you, 345 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: and it hits you like viscerally. You can't help but 346 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: have a reaction to it. And I felt so moved 347 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: like you did when I read it. And oftentimes, you know, 348 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: in rehearsal, we would just be like, oh my god, 349 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: this is so much. And I will say, you know, 350 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: as a Latina, but also I think just in general, 351 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: as people who as anyone who may not feel seen 352 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: or heard, this play hits on something that everyone can 353 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,360 Speaker 1: relate to, whether it's like the relationship between the sisters, 354 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: the connection to our past, the connection to a deceased parent, 355 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: what that's like caring for a parent. I mean, it 356 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: really touches on so many themes that are universal, but 357 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: it's set and presented in a way that our black 358 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: and brown community can actually rally behind it and say, like, 359 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: I see myself in this. And there are so many 360 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 1: cultural specific things in the play without it being like 361 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: only this group of people can relate to it. But 362 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: there's so many little beautiful nuggets in there that anyone 363 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: could relate to, anyone can relate too. But then it 364 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: hits so much deeper when you're like, Wow, that is 365 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: my family, that is me, that is my sister, that 366 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: is you know, my cousins, like you really really get 367 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: it and m yeah, which is when you see that 368 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: for the first time, you never forget powerful. And that's 369 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: that's what I loved hearing about people after the performance, 370 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: and hearing the q and as and the talkbacks, and 371 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: then you left, jack Jack left me all alone.

So my 458 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: first question for you, Jack is if you were a 459 00:29:49,880 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: glass of wine, what kind of wine would you be? Um? Oh, gosh, okay, 460 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: I really would. I think in my dream world I 461 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: would be a Burgundy pinot noir because they're you know, 462 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: they're very specifically from Burgundy. Um, they're very elegant, you know, 463 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: I with your wine. Jack lives in Napa Valleys. She's 464 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: a wine girl, and I love a wine. Yes, absolutely, yes, Okay, 465 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: I like fun that you want a bottle. The fun 466 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: thing about Burgundy, and we're really about France and all 467 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: old worlds, like the region defines the grave. So if 468 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: you have a red Burgundy, it's a pinot noir. If 469 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: it's a white Burgundy, it's going to be chardonnay, which 470 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: I also like. Chardonnay's from Burgundy, but I am not 471 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: one of them. I love that I knew. I'm so 472 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: happy I hit the nail on that on that question. Okay, 473 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: second question, what's your favorite place you've travel to? Oh, 474 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: we actually just got back from Italy, and yes, it 475 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: was kind of amazing. Um.

Okay, wine and Vietnam is right up there, 480 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: but Vietnam is way up there. But that's so hard 481 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: because I also went to Hawaiian in Vietnam, which is 482 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: like the most charming little city in the world.
