Here I Made This

When Natalie Palamides creates a one-woman show, she doesn't write a script and instead fearlessly performs material in front of an audience as a "workshop" until it transforms into a completed piece. In our conversation we talk about her latest one-woman show "Nate", which you can currently see performed at the Lyric Hyperion and UCB theatre in Los Angeles, and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August.
