The only question for which Iris Sowlat didn’t have a detailed answer was, “what do you do in your free time?”  Iris is the definition of hustle and in the short time she’s been in Chicago, she worked or interned with Steppenwolf Theatre, American Theatre Company, Stage Left Theatre, Pride Films and Plays and About Face Theatre and more.  She is a director who has worked frequently as an AD, but also produced her own work.  In this episode we talk about her attraction to socially aware and political theatre, as well as an incredibly important upcoming project, After Orlando: A Night of Readings, addressing the aftermath of the Pulse shooting this past June.
