## Resource

As You Mic It: In the Spotlight shines the light on this season’s repertory production of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead . Artistic Director Jason King Jones sits down with actor Ian Merrill Peakes ( The Player ) and scenic designer Brian Sydney Bembridge for an inside look at Tom Stoppard’s witty and mind-bending companion piece to Hamlet . Together, they explore the play’s existential humor, theatrical absurdity, and the layered experience of performing and designing within a shared repertory world. From the shifting boundaries of fate and performance to the magic of a transformative set, this conversation reveals what makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern a perfect match for PSF’s Undiscovered Countries season. Special Thanks: Much gratitude to Chuck Gloman, Jarret Brown, and all of DeSales University for helping us launch this podcast journey.
