This is one of my favorite plays of all time and a role that I've dreamed of playing for years. I can't believe that I get to actually perform it and with people who are as passionate about it as I am. Directed by the endlessly imaginative and innovative Devon De Mayo and Peter G. Anderson and featuring the genius of Alex Main, Ben Veatch, Martel Manning, Watson Swift and Julia Rowley, strap in for a fairytale with ferocity, sparks and all that jazz...

Half Hour, Steppenwolf Theatre’s podcast is inspired by the most magical amount of time there is in the theatre—the thirty minutes before a show begins—Half Hour makes connections between artists inside and outside of the Steppenwolf family. As an avid listener, I was so delighted to chat with Steppenwolf ensemble member and my dear friend Caroline Neff who put up with my social awkwardness and lovingly calls me "the Ryan Seacrest of Chicago Theatre."
You’re On In Five! The Art of Understudying is a new podcast hosted by awesome Chicago actor Scott Sawa and one of my favorite humans in the entire world, Elana Elyce, who talk to actors about their experiences as an understudy, and how those roles have informed their technique and career. I so miss being in the same room with my friends, and this was such a lovely way to spend time. Check them out on your daily stroll or while you're doing dishes...
The delightful Joseph Schupbach created a podcast called Mirepoix, a journey through food, family and culture via the lens of food practice and tradition. If you're like me, you've turned to cooking or eating or thinking about cooking or eating for comfort and this podcast is definitely food for the soul. I'm so happy to be featured in the upcoming season.
Through The Bánh Mì Chronicles, storyteller and podcast host, Randy Kim aims to "break bánh mì" with AAPI folks in Chicago and beyond, to understand the work they are doing for themselves, their community, and their family. This journey will ensure that our interactions with each other become a part of our history. We recorded our episode on an emotional day the first week in January and I was so grateful for his fellowship and kindness. All of his guests are astounding and I was so honored to be among them. Give his show a listen when you have the time!
