A Treasure Chest of Taming: Samuel McGown

<p>Samuel McGown playing PETRUCHIO, (who he firmly dubs as “not a good dude”) joins us for the next instalment of the Treasure Chest of Taming. </p><p>Sam discusses the challenges of playing a strong, perhaps problematic character, experimenting with violence, crossing boundaries as a character but not as a person, open communication, affirming safety, separating the character from himself, Petruchio needing therapy, language, intention and acknowledging that the characters really are people. </p><p>*The theatre gods did not appear to be on the side of documentation in May. Throughout the Treasure Chest you’ll find disturbances in audio quality. Local’s genius of a producer <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fivedollarbribe/">Carter Pierce</a> worked his magic, but perfection is impossible to achieve. You’ll also hear the voices of the cast and crew, but that’s all part of the fun.</p><p>Watch for Stencilled Productions next work at:</p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/stencilledproductions/">@stencilledproductions</a></p><p>Find Samuel at:</p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/5ammers/">@5ammers</a></p><p>Find more information on Local and its guests at:</p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/localthepodcast/">@localthepodcast</a></p><p>Support Share the Dignity at:</p><p><a href="https://www.sharethedignity.org.au">Share the Dignity</a></p>
