Rachel Bertone - Award Winning Director & Choreographer

Hey y’all! Welcome to the Theatre Artist Podcast | Diving Into the Craft and Business for Theatre Artists.  Today’s conversation is with Rachel Bertone whom I’ve been able to assist in a couple of shows this year and, as you’ll hear, quickly became someone I just vibed with and we understood each other’s language pretty early on. Rachel grew up dancing and attended Boston Ballet School and then attended Boston Conservatory’s dance program before switching gears and going into musical theatre. She went on to become an actor and performed in numerous productions before transitioning into directing and choreographing. She has taught at Boston Conservatory, Emerson College, and the A.R.T. Institute at Harvard University. Rachel is currently teaching at Long Island University, LIU, and is also teaching Musical Theatre workshops and dance classes on Zoom during quarantine. You can find more about her on her website www.rachelbertone.com . A few things to note before we get into the episode; we reference some people and shows that I will have linked for you and talk about during the Fact Check, but I wanted to mention them at the top so that you have some reference. We talk about our experience doing Hair at New Repertory Theatre with the Artistic Director Michael J. Bobbit (whom Rachel refers to as Michel), Angie Jepson was our Intimacy Director for Hair (whom Rachel refers to as Angie), and Emily White was our dramaturg and she is currently the Publications Coordinator at The Public Theatre. Rachel also mentions Larry, referring to Larry Sousa who teaches at numerous Boston area colleges and also directs many plays and musicals across the country (and he’s worked with queen Bernadette Peters...maybe I’ll have him on as a guest just so that we can talk all things Bernadette). I’m so happy that I could catch up with Rachel and continue our very regular conversations that I’m lucky enough to have with her during rehearsal processes. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.  Follow us @theatreartistpodcast on social media, check out the Fact Check page with links at www.kasiagneiser.com/links-for-a-conversation-with , and support us at www.patreon.com/theatreartistpodcast .--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/theatre-artist-podcast/support
