We chat with Marcia Marcia Marcia about this event and coming to Minnesota!
What are you looking forward to with the Short Shortz event at Flipphone?
I think what I’m most excited about is bringing Marcia back to Minneapolis! Very few people know this, but when I was working at the Guthrie theater for the summer a couple of years ago, that was sort of the mental birthplace of Marcia!
What is your favorite part about summer?
My favorite part about summer is definitely the weather. I love New York City, but the six months of gloomy, cold weather is kind of a downer. I just feel like some of my fondest memories are spent outside over the summer.
What is your message for everyone right now?
My message for everyone right now is honestly just to invest in self-education. We’re living through a time where some people are believing a lot of harmful rhetoric that is seriously affecting peoples lives. Arm yourself with the truth, and try and stay positive.
Do you have any favorite places in Minneapolis or places you're hoping to check out?
As I mentioned, I worked and lived in Minneapolis for an entire summer a couple of years back, so I’m excited to revisit the places I love going! Maxwell’s Pub was a favorite amongst our cast.
Thank you Marcia Marcia Marcia for your time! We look forward to having you back in Minneapolis!
