THIS IS A PODCAST EXCLUSIVE - The full session of the interview with Michelle Azar that Brett Cullum conducted for the play "All Things Equal: The Life and Trials of Ruth Bader Ginsburg" running at the HOBBY CENTER.
What if you could step into the shoes of judicial icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg for just an hour and a half? In this episode, we sit down with the extraordinarily talented Michelle Azar, who does exactly that in her one-woman show "All Things Equal: The Life and Trials of Ruth Bader Ginsburg" at Houston's Hobby Center. The show runs September 5th and 6th in Zilka Hall, the intimate space in the complex. It is written by Tony Award Winner Rupert Holmes ("The Mystery of Edwin Drood," several books, and a popular 70s hit!).
Michelle opens up about her journey to landing the role and the meticulous research process she undertook to bring Ginsburg to life. She provides fascinating insights into Ginsburg's teaching spirit, strategic brilliance, and the key moments that shaped her illustrious career and personal life.
Michelle also talks about her role opposite Viola Davis in "How to Get Away with Murder." Brett Cullum reveals that he went to college with Amy Coney Barrett and discusses with Michelle the stark contrast that appointment created. It's a packed episode about a controversial court of opinion.
