We chatted with Adrian Shepherd-Gawinski about our upcoming production of Pinkerton Comes to Prospect. We asked why he wanted to be involved in this production, what he loved about his character, and what type of person would enjoy this show.
Lighthouse Festival (LF): Why did you want to be involved in this production?
Adrian Shepherd-Gawinski (ASG): When I acted with Jamie Williams in Baskerville back in 2017, he was working on his first play. Now he’s got a whole passel of hilarious plays under his belt, and I’m thrilled to be in one finally! I also had an incredible time working with Steven Gallagher last summer on Murder at Ackerton Manor, so I was very, very excited to say yes to this part.
(LF): What do you love about your character?
(ASG)My character, Amos, is a total riot. He’s got some of the funniest lines in the show and the wildest physical gags. But there are some surprises there – he might have more of a brain and more of a heart than you expect!
(LF): What type of person is going to love this show?
(ASG): This show has everything: physical comedy, wisecracks, romance, fights, Texas accents. If you like a little action mixed in with your comedy, you’ll love this show.
