Not in the loop about the takeover? Get looped in here.
The down and dirty explanation: October 14th at 7:00pm Mike Daisey is coming to Woolly to do a benefit for the Interns. Drunk with power, the interns have taken over the Woolly blog. Every day this week come here to learn about a new pair of hardworkin’ young Mammoths.
Kasey Hendrix: Properties Intern
“do you have your tickets!? Do you!?” Kasey asks.
“…For what?” you respond innocently.
“TO THE GUN SHOW!” yells Kasey.
Where are you from?
Palmyra, PA
Why Woolly?
I admire that this company actively takes risks and gives opportunities for new work to be shown. You never know what’s going to happen next and I love that kind of atmosphere.
What’s next for you?
That’s really up in the air at the moment. I just know that I want to be an artist, whatever that might mean. I could see myself happy doing props, acting, or traditional art. Outside of my career, some life goals of mine are to finish writing/drawing a comic, possibly swim with sharks but there’s a good chance I’d chicken out of that one, do a complete Lord of the Rings/Hobbit marathon after all those movies come out, and hike at least a portion of The Appalachian Trail.
Fun Fact!?
I have a horrible time coming up with good fun facts, but I swear I’m an interesting person. Legit.
David Phelps: Technical Assistant
David copies Kasey. Though his unwavering confidence in his “guns” is less kinetic.
Where are you from?
Greenbelt, MD.
Why Woolly?
I graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park in May and came to Woolly to continue learning about technical theatre, especially scenic construction.
What’s next for you?
After this program I hopes to move on to other professional theatres and eventually return to school to earn my MFA.
Fun Fact!?
All of my facts are fun.
