Hard to believe, but Deirdre Finnegan has been away from the stage for more than five years! After seeing her emotional and touching performance in Closer Than Ever, we want to ask – what took you so long?! You only have three more chances to see Deirdre and the rest of the company of Mazeppa’s Closer Than Ever, playing through July 25. Get your tickets at www.mazeppa.org
Tell about an “a-ha” moment you can remember that had a real impact on the direction your life was going to take.
After choreographing a very demanding show, I found it hard to transition back to just being a mom- I made a decision then to be very selective about how much and where I work so I could be there for my kids.
If your life were turned into a movie what actor would play you?
Someone extremely hot. [Deirdre, can we suggest Cameron Diaz or maybe Leslie Mann?]
What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Rock star
On what occasion do you lie?
Only on show questionnaires [Touché, Deirdre.]
What do you consider the most underrated vice?
Potato chips
What makes you laugh?
Paul McElwee
What do you do to impress someone you are attracted to?
Juggling- But please don’t tell my husband.
What are your favorite names?
Myles, Frankie and Nora
What is your motto?
Why should someone come to see Closer Than Ever?
You may have never seen a show like this. It is very unique and has moments of pure clarity that will move even the most cynical person!
