About
On this episode of Curtain Call, Tom is joined by local actress, poet, and community advocate Cass Collins for a thoughtful conversation about building a life in the theatre. From her early training in Emerson College’s BFA acting program to founding Boston’s Open Door Theatre, Cass reflects on the realities of navigating the profession beyond the classroom. The discussion explores her performances across the Sullivan Catskills, including work with Catskill Public Theater, Standing People Together, and Farm Arts Collective, her work with theatre artists such as Nick López and Tannis Kowalchuk, and the collaborative spirit that drives devised theatre in the region.
