As tech rehearsals began, I sat down with husband and wife team, Director Melissa Baughman and actor and Landless Theatre Company?s Producing Artistic Director Andrew Baughman to talk about their outrageous production of the Off-Broadway musical hit Walmartopia.
Why did they choose this crazy show? Are they Walmart shoppers? How do you move a cast of 11 around the tiny DC Arts Center?s performing space, and squeeze in a 4-piece band? And, how will the cast perform choreographer Karissa Swanigan?s energetic and high-kicking choreography without hurting each other?
Actresses Robin Rouse, who plays Vicki, and Janine Gulisano-Sunday, who plays Smiley Face, Jamie and Counselor James, talk about their first-time experiences being with the Landless crew, their roles, their local theatre experiences,and their favorite song in the show.
