#37 - Rachel Tucker, On Both Sides of the Pond Aug 01, 2020

We often say that the conversations we have with our guests should feel just like we are girlfriends chatting in the dressing room.

Rachel joined us to talk ‘Defying Gravity’ with a toddler at home, what it’s truly like to juggle a career in two different countries, the balance she and her director husband have found as artist parents, and how this time of upheaval has, ultimately, had a silver lining. This episode is a true, light hearted glimpse into what our lives and convos are like backstage, and the openness and honesty that almost immediately connects those of us who call ourselves actors.
