Blood, Bonnets & Bennet Sisters: From Seussical to Shakespeare to Jane Austen

This one’s got it all, y’all—chaos, comedy, costumes, and a couple of real-life lovebirds. In this jam-packed episode of Acting Up with GTC, hosts Micky Shearon and Matt Beutner are finally back in the studio after a whirlwind month of theatre madness. And oh, do they have stories to tell.First, we take you behind the scenes of Academy Weekend, where Seussical Kids and Julius Caesar somehow shared a stage—one filled with sunshine and singing cats, the other soaked in fake blood and Shakespearean betrayal. (Spoiler: Travis Trimble survives. Barely.)Then, it's all about Pride and Prejudice, our newest mainstage production. Director Haley Twaddle, along with stars Emmy Looney (Elizabeth Bennet) and JD Dvorak (Mr. Darcy), join the pod to dish on this dreamy Jane Kendall adaptation, the show’s gorgeous garden set, and how real-life romance makes their on-stage chemistry absolutely swoon-worthy. Did we mention they just got engaged in a Pride & Prejudice-themed photoshoot? Swoon.Finally, fan-favorite Colton Lively drops in to spill the tea on the real magic behind GTC productions—wigs, wardrobe, and wig-out moments backstage.🎟️ Grab your tickets to Pride & Prejudice now—it opens May 9 for a 3-weekend run through May 25!📅 And don’t forget to check out Summer Camp info at GranburyTheatreAcademy.org for your young stars-in-training.🎧 Subscribe, share, and support us on Patreon—because we know you’re acting up too.#ActingUpWithGTC #GranburyTheatreCompany #PrideAndPrejudice #SeussicalKids #JuliusCaesar #BehindTheScenes #LocalTheatre #TexasTheatre #SupportTheArts #GTC 💙🎭✨Timestamps:00:00Introduction to Acting Up with GTC Podcast00:50Recap of Academy Weekend and Upcoming Productions09:08Interview with Pride and Prejudice Cast12:05Director's Vision and Adaptation of Pride and Prejudice18:53Character Insights and Personal Connections27:58Show Details and Closing Remarks29:50The Heart of Pride and Prejudice34:38Behind the Scenes: The Art of Production35:51The Role of Hair and Makeup in Theatre46:23The Challenges of Performing and Producing52:01The Journey to Granbury Theatre Company57:38Summer Camps: Nurturing Young Talent
