Mega Mega Drop Drop - Interview with The Other Bennet Sister Director, Jennifer Sheridan

DC and Lisa introduce a “mega drop” interview with Jennifer Sheridan, director of The Other Bennet Sister.  Sheridan discusses how she feels protective of Mary, and why casting Ella Bruccoleri was crucial to balancing Mary’s prickliness, vulnerability, comedy, and how she led the on-set tone. She shares her love for the 1995 Pride and Prejudice, the inspired decision to cast Lucy Briers as Hill.  She explains visual and costume choices, her comedy instincts and the show’s depiction of Mary’s experience of familial cruelty. She even hints about other Austen retellings in the works!
