In this episode I chat with actor and advocate Dria Brown about the physical toll anxiety was taking on her body, her reluctance in seeking help, and her path to healing. We also talk about her work with the Broadway Advocacy Coalition.

Actor and Advocate, Dria Brown

Actor Dria Brown talks about playing Joan in Bedlam’s almost postmodern production of George Bernard Shaw’s St. Joan in DC’s Folger Theatre. It’s stripped down in every way: minimal sets and costumes and a cast of four; Dria plays Joan and only Joan; the other three actors juggle 26 roles. The rehearsals were interesting. We hear about her growing up in South Carolina, how time in her father’s church readied her for the role, and her desire to get the audience to engage with the performance.
