Geeks in the Greenroom

Welcome to Geeks in the Greenroom, a podcast by and for theater geeks with your host Heather Morrison (hey, Ma, that's me!). In each episode, I interview an actor, writer, dancer, singer, director, costume designer, triple threats, multi-talents, and all sorts of creatives. They share career journeys, confide their fails, wins, and surprises. I may even convince some to do a time step. What respectable Greenroom hang would be complete without a little light swearing, weird backstage rituals, and tails of showmances? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Carrie Madsen, Actor, Writer, and Totally Fabulous Greenroom Geek - Part 1 of 2

    Our guest on this episode is Carrie Madsen, a true triple threat, nay, multi-threat. While Carrie was a long-time performer growing up in theater in her youth, she scaled back for a while in adulthood. But when she returned to performing, she leapt with gusto and single-mindedness that it jump-started her career, taking her from the Bay Area to Los Angeles. Besides having an old fashioned gab about a lot of different stuff, Carrie talked about what it’s like to build a career as a mature woman. We had so much to chat about in our interview, that I discovered I had enough material for three episodes! This is the first installment. In this episode Carrie’s talks to me about life and performing before she moved to Lotus Land. So, sit back and enjoy!
