More Episodes

The Stage Door Diva began as a column in the Coastal Journal in Midcoast Maine. Over time, Tamara Lilly realized she wanted to tell more and more indepth stories, beyond the page. The focus will be on Theater folks in Maine and beyond!

In this episode, the guest is Angela Bonacasa. Angela is a theatre artist from Castine, Maine.  After building a successful career in Chicago as a fight director and stage combat instructor,  Angela moved to Maine in 2007, where she has continued to work in stage combat as well as build her directing career.

Angela talks about her education and training in theater and stage combat, her career in NY, Chicago and Maine and her current project, a new theater company in Down East Maine.
