Charles is also the artistic director of a flash mob Shakespeare company called Salty Shakespeare. Her company flashes bits of the Bard in crowded elevators, or in the coffee line at Starbucks, or anywhere that seems inappropriate. In 2014, the Los Angeles Times called Salty Shakespeare “the best flash mob Shakespeare company in L.A.”—not mentioning that it’s the ONLY flash mob Shakespeare company in L.A. Salty Shakespeare lives up to its motto of “Erupting, Interrupting, Disturbing the Peace.” Charles holds a Master’s degree in theatre, was a marathon runner and is the mother of two fine young men: Charlie Linehan, a lawyer in the field of Cyber Investigation, and Will Rothhaar, a working actor.
