Jacquie Engel: My Hometown Theater Queen

Reunited and feels so good! I talk with one of the most impactful people on my life, Jacquie Engel, who directed almost all of the major shows I did when I was growing up back in good 'ol Lycoming County. We talk about our first impressions, working together, that period of time when I was "straight", and so much more! Keeping the arts alive in schools is so important, especially in the hands of people like her.

Listen to our podcast, and then make sure you continue supporting arts education programs in schools!
