Episode 289: Jake & Jessica Fong

  • Resumen

  • It's been a while but Norman and I are back and we have Jake Fong – Jake has been on Episodes 228, 235 and 287 – I always love having Jake on as a guest host. Jake is currently understudying for the Glass Menagerie, now playing at SF Playhouse. Now he comes with his lovely wife and actress Jessica Fong, who just finished doing Sol, the Musical. Jessica shares her origin story, what theatre means to her and where she sees herself in the future. Norman and I have been working diligently on the Baldwin Project, where our eventual play will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of one black’s great poet laureates, James Baldwin. Check out new readings and updates here: https://www.baldwincentennialproject.com We also want to thank Charles Blades Barbershop for sponsoring The Yay!
