Welcome to Episode 6 – "Gail"

We are two weeks out from our Windsor opening on Pelee Island – and rehearsals are starting back up this week. So  I thought we would check back in with one of our actors to see what they are making of the Watching Glory Die process. I sat down for a chat with actor Kathryn Haggis!

Kathryn Haggis is a Canadian actor and writer, living in Toronto ON.

After graduating at The Neighbourhood Playhouse Theatre School in New York City, she returned to Toronto and joined The Second City auxiliary touring Company. While at SC in Toronto, Kathryn spent years teaching improv to children, youth and young adults of all abilities. She also enjoyed years of playing Francis, in Sonny Mills; live, episodic, Dyke City, for Buddies In Bad Times Theatre and she treasures being directed by Judith Thompson in Lois Fine's, Freda and Gem's Best of the Week. Kathryn's favourite film and TV credits include playing cousin Marianthi in My Big Fat Greek Wedding (1 and 2), and most recently: Imposters, on Netflix. Kathryn is currently collaborating on a short film, called Dead On. 

We had a great discussion about her work with youth and what that brings to her role as a correctional officer, what she's excited for in Edinburgh and what it's like working with Judith Thompson – have a listen!
