Of all my guests this first season series, I have known Janelle Hutchison the longest. We met in the early 70’s when we were cast as understudies for the cabaret revue, What’s a Nice Country Like You Doing in a State Like This? I was hired to understudy Martin Short and Janelle covered for Andrea Martin.
Janelle has long since added considerably to her professional CV – perhaps most celebrated of her stage appearances was as Mme. Thenardier in the Canadian production of Les Miserables. Janelle is comfortable and engaging as she explores her years of musical and non-musical theatre work, her screenwriting, her success in television commercials and her shift to film and television casting as well as administration at the Stratford Festival.
The culmination of Janelle’s eclectic professional life must be in her management of the Tisch School’s Musical Theatre programme at NYU. It’s fascinating to learn that the sum of all past projects, credits and accomplishments could be synthesized into a New York-based academic setting.
