TAYLOR MAC on Employee of the Month

Synopsis

The Tony's rarely celebrate solo performance art, cabaret, or truly experimental, independent theater, but it's never stopped audiences from loving the artists who reinvent the wheel. Take Taylor Mac, who often goes by Judy, and has long been heralded for imaginative, poignantly funny and original performers. When Mac appeared in Brecht's "Good Person of Szechwan," The New Yorker called it, "One of contemporary theater’s more unforgettable performances.” Mac is equally known for solo performances and fabulous, multi-character productions like, “The Lily’s Revenge” and “A 24-Hour History of Popular Music.” Mac is currently working on a two-person show titled, “The Last Two People on Earth” with Mandy Patinkin and that is directed/choreographed by Susan Stroman. In our conversation, Judy talks about shitty day jobs (pun intended), the joys of collaborating, and the weird nature auditioning. Mac also sings, giving us all a taste of the magic that is Taylor Mac.
