In this episode, I sit down with Lesley Malin, the Producing Executive Director of Chesapeake Shakespeare Company. Lesley helped grow this Baltimore gem into one of Maryland’s largest theaters, taking it from a passion project to a major player in the Shakespeare world. We talk about how she led the renovation of a historic 1886 bank into their now iconic venue, and what it’s like to manage a theater that never stops evolving.
But it’s not just about Shakespeare. Chesapeake Shakespeare is currently producing Joe Turner’s Come and Gone as part of Baltimore’s August Wilson Celebration, running from September 20th through October 15th. Lesley gives us a sneak peek into this gripping play, a crucial chapter in Wilson’s American Century Cycle that captures the heartache and hope of the Great Migration.
