Three-time Emmy Award-winning actress Cady McClain returns to The Locher Room for a one-on-one interview.

Cady will be here to tell us about her work as the Artistic Director of the Axial Theatre. Axial is a twenty-three-year-old not-for-profit institution dedicated to supporting the professional development of the independent voice through audience involvement and a commitment to presenting challenging, intelligent, and culturally relevant theatrical experiences.

Cady is currently directing Axial’s latest production, Never the Sinner by John Logan. The star-studded cast features Broadway actor Trent Dawson, Tuesdays With Morrie star Albi Gorn, Michael Howard Conservatory Members Tom Ryan and Michael M. Alva, and Axial Theatre Members Bruce Apar, Youlim Nam and special guest Najah Imani Muhammad. McClain will be directing and producing alongside Axial Board Members Steven Williford (Emmy© Winning Director), Amanda Quinn Olivar (Editor-in-Chief, Curator.Guide), and Axial Ensemble member Dan Walworth.

Never the Sinner is based on the true story of two young men, Nathan Leopold (Tom Ryan) and Richard Loeb (Michael M. Alva), who murder a local boy to prove their superiority and claim the right to having committed “the crime of the century.” The case is argued by two esteemed lawyers, Clarence Darrow (Albi Gorn) and Robert Crowe (Trent Dawson). While Crowe wants to fulfill the outraged nation’s cry for a hanging, Darrow argues for the rights of all human beings to be shown mercy, no matter how shocking the crime.

The play will be produced at Bethany Arts Community in Ossining (N.Y.), Nov. 10 - 13 and Nov. 17 - 20, 2022. Thursday through Saturday shows are 8 p.m. Sunday performances are 3 p.m. A post-show discussion of the topics of the play will follow each performance, led by Cady along with members of the ensemble and special guests.

An industry trailblazer for more than three decades, Cady was recognized by Deadline.com for being the first woman to win three Emmys© for her acting work on three different daytime shows (All My Children, As the World Turns and Days of Our Lives) in three different categories on three different networks in three different decades. She continues to recur on Days of Our Lives.
