Let’s hear from the cast! Joining us for our first interview is the talented Robert Hutchens, who plays the patriarch of a truly dysfunctional family:
Q: Tell us about August: Osage County.
Robert: August: Osage County is entertainment and art; it's darkly funny and tragic; colorful characters march through it, revealing huge secrets along the way.
Q: Why did you want to tackle this show?
Robert: The play has a stellar reputation. When it premiered, it dominated conversations about theatre all over the country.
Q: Tell us about the character you play.
Robert: The character I play, Beverly Weston, is an actor's dream: richly textured, articulate, humorous and tragic.
Q: I've heard the set is amazing...
Robert: One of the most beautiful, grand sets I've ever played on.
Q: Tell us about the cast.
Robert: Powerful, funny, dynamic.
Q: Why would you recommend this show?
Robert: As I said before, it's both entertainment and art. It has suspense and melodrama, but it also has characters that are as layered as they are eccentric.
Thanks, Robert!
