THE 3-MINUTE INTERVIEW: Lise Bruneau

Published



Bruneau directs an all-female cast in Taffety Punk Theatre Company’s “Julius Caesar,” which runs through Oct. 23 at the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop. A founding Taffety Punk member, Bruneau has directed the company’s two previous annual all-female Shakespeare productions. Why an all-female cast?

Many times theater companies have this brilliant idea to do a Shakespeare play with all men and it’s so rare that they decide to do it with all women. I think it’s always really great to mix it up. There are highly trained, really fantastic actresses that are dying to play these roles.
