In the glorious American Blues Theater production of Always...Patsy Cline, Molly Hernández discusses how her character of Louise brings a lively theatricality to what could be "just" a well-produced jukebox musical. Molly shares how she was encouraged to bring her authentic "chaos gremlin" self to the role; how this show differs from other shows she's done in Chicago (including Lookingglass Theater's Lookingglass Alice); the privilege of playing in theaters ranging from giant auditoriums to tiny storefronts; how she brings all her skills to convey an improvised unpredictability; and how The Actor's Gymnasium not only trained her to be a circus artist but literally changed her life.
