Exclusive Interview: Chase Bowman and Quinn Jacob of The Ringwald Theatre’s ‘Steel Poinsettias’
The holiday season is all about spending time with those we love and cherish. Family, friends, your grandma, who thinks you’re perpetually a child, no matter how old you actually get? It’s about holding them close, celebrating the passing of another year, and looking towards what’s coming next. It’s the idea of family that is at the core of The Ringwald’s most recent production, the holiday-centered play Steel Poinsettias! Written by Vince Kelley, this parody sequel to Steel Magnolias brings our favorite beauty salon and its regulars into the modern day! We spoke to two of the cast members, Chase Bowman and Quinn Jacob, about what audiences can expect from this production!
In this exclusive BSB interview, Bowman and Jacob discuss what it’s like to play the new generation inhabiting the Steel Poinsettias’ work and how they’ve developed their characters over the course of rehearsals. With roles written with them in mind, both actors talk about the immense privilege of bringing them to life at The Ringwald and how the show captures the essence of Christmas. What holiday traditions do these two actors have with their loved ones? Check out this exciting interview to find out!
