Where are you creating theatre?
The Wild Project
Tell us about your current project?
I am producing a show called I Squeezed Really Hard. In it Anthony Misiano serves up a series of painfully funny, progressively more shocking stories about a turbulent childhood and the modern broken home. A journey as raw as it is intangibly universal, Misiano’s fearless, fast-paced storytelling takes us down an engrossing, hilarious and honest autobiographical road that makes us laugh at our darkest moments, and question what exactly we define as family. An unafraid comedy set in a simpler, more aggressive time known commonly as, the 90’s.
What continues to inspire your art?
The capacity of theatre to entertain and elevate. I believe our stories create our reality. They have the power to deepen our connection to each other, heal the past, and serve a better tomorrow. We are what we consume. So I am passionate about bringing exquisitely crafted high quality stories that feed the mind, thrill the body and elevate the soul to the stage and screen. Any advice for your peers?Follow your heart and be of service. We can’t do this alone- All boats rise with the tide. And don’t forget to have fun along the way!
What’s next for you?
I have another potential project on the horizon- but it’s a little hush hush at the moment. More to be revealed later.
