Clara Harris & Sandy Maxx . Fringe Festival Adventures and Historic Moments in the UK
14 Oct 2022
Clara Harris, may be familiar to you as she was my guest, in what seems like ages ago, for Episode 20. She is an actor, writer, and artist educator with over two decades' of experience on stage, screen and behind the mic in the world of audio drama & as a fellow podcaster and voice actor. She recently returned from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; the world's largest arts & media festival where she produced and performed her solo show, This Moment in America, a live recorded audio drama and sonic collage of the American psyche. Clara makes This Moment in America workshops and live performances available for touring here in the U.S. She is also the creative force behind Swamp Witch Studio and producer of its audio drama podcast, Night Owl Theater. My other guest, Sandy Maxx, is joining 19Stories for the first time and is definitely giving this host a run for her money as she is a multimedia broadcast professional with extensive experience in radio, television, and content creation. She's the two-time Emmy-nominated and award winning host and producer of The Arts Page, which airs on Milwaukee PBS and is now in its 10th season. Sandy spends her afternoons on the air at 96.5 WKLH-FM and is involved in a variety of live event productions. As a fellow podcaster, she hosts 'Downton Blabbey; a podcast for Downton Abbey fans to share all things Downton. Sandy is an arts enthusiast who believes in the power of creativity to connect people, build community and create important conversations of which Sandy has hosted 1,000's of during her illustrious career. Several of these conversations happened during her jaunt across the pond to the Edinbrugh Fringe Festival to attend This Moment in America and to also meet up with her life-long friend Vince Gatten to chat about his starring role in the show The Golfer. Then as any self described "incurable Anglophile" would do, she and Clara headed over to Highclere Castle for a 1920s-themed cocktail party before landing in London, England just as the passing of Queen Elizabeth was announced. Although this was a different kind of story for Sandy, she seized this historic moment and reached back to her audience stateside via a live report from Buckingham Palace with the production expertise of Clara Harris as her producer. Listen in as these two dynamic women share about their individual projects and their most recent trips to the UK, performing and attending at The Fringe Festival and being in London during the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
