Interview with Jill Bloede, director for Murder on the Orient Express

Interview with our director for Murder on the Orient Express, Jill Bloede

TC: Describe Murder on the Orient Express in 3 words.
JB: Captivating Case. Poirot. (OK, no fair only letting me choose 3 words. How about "You won't see the ending coming" or "Trickiest case for Hercule Poirot")

TC: Welcome back! What shows have you been involved in at Theatre Charlotte recently?
JB: Recently? Well, there was The Nerd, Addams Family, Christmas Carol, and most recently directed The Odd Couple. I had the privilege to perform Penny in You Can't Take it With You, and bucket-list-role: Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest

TC: We assume you are thrilled to be directing this show, so talk to us about why you are excited and what you're most looking forward to.
JB: You assume correctly - I'm thrilled to direct this thriller!!! Having directed this one before for Belmont Abbey, I learned a lot and am looking forward to a new bunch of collaborators to bring this great script to life for a larger audience.
