About this listen

Shakespeare for the Stoners! Shakespeare is typically seen as being difficult to approach, but if people can talk about it while high, maybe it's not as intimidating as you think. Stoners are typically stereotyped as stupid, but maybe if they can approach Shakespeare after smoking weed, they aren't as dumb as you think. Join us as we challenge traditional norms in Shakespeare and society at large.Micaela Mannix 2022 Art Drama & Plays Entertainment & Performing Arts

  • Broads and the Bard: The Colorado Weird Sisters
    Aug 7 2024

    This week it gets weird. We welcome back Noelia Antweiler and Ilana DeAngelo from last week and introduce Devi Reisenfeld to talk about the weird sisters from Macbeth!

    Devi Reisenfeld (She/Her/Hers) is an Actor/Singer/Pisces based here in Denver! After earning her Master’s Degree in Acting from the University of Southern Mississippi, Devi moved to Chicago where she worked professionally for four years playing roles such as Prudence in Beyond Therapy and Edwin Drood in The Mystery of Edwin Drood. Devi is a Certified Theatrical Combatant with Dueling Arts International in multiple weapon disciplines and a pretty good little tap dancer but, like castmate Ilana, will always live in the shadow of her portrayal of Gertrude McFuzz in her high school’s production of Seussical circa 2009. Devi is currently performing in CSF’s Macbeth and the Merry Wives of Windsor running until August 11th.

    Noelia Antweiler (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist born and raised in Denver! As an actor, she has worked extensively in New York City and around the country. She is also a fine art model and a circus performer, specializing in aerial silks and dance trapeze. She believes in the healing power of creativity and the arts.

    Ilana DeAngelo (She/Her/Hers) is a performer based in Brooklyn, New York. Her recent credits include Ophelia in Kentucky Shakespeare's Hamlet and Diana in CSF's All's Well That Ends Well- however, nothing compares to her portrayal of Gertrude McFuzz in Seussical when she was 14. Ilana is currently performing in CSF's Macbeth and The Merry Wives of Windsor running until August 11th.
