Amanda Mehl, actor and co-founder of the Public Citizen Theater (PCT) in Portland, Oregon, is our special guest today on AudiblySpeaking.  She has acted in several productions for the PCT since 2016, including “The Maids,” by Jean Genet (directed by Aaron Filyaw).

 

In our conversation Amanda talks about the challenges of acting in the time of Covid, the ways in which citizens expand on the theater opportunities available to them, and the innovative moves she has made to build a voiceover repertoire with Librivox.org

Music Guest: Rebecca DuMaine



On this special episode of the podcast, I speak with Rebecca DuMaine, an exciting jazz singer with the Dave Miller Trio, based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

We talk about the musical genre in which she and the Trio specialize, and how it speaks to us in good times and in Covid time, as well as her journey toward her musical life.
