All the world's a stage, and Ameenah Kaplan has rocked them all. From her well-remembered role as Daryl's crush "Val" on "The Office" to her days drumming for Rhianna and Macy Gray (plus her well-hidden turn as both Gamora AND her mother in the MCU's "Avengers" films), Kaplan has now taken her passion for live theater to her current role directing the national touring version of "The Lion King". We chatted about her favorite moments at Dunder-Mifflin, why her generation of experimental theatre changed the industry forever, and why she encourages young performers to break all the rules!
