Exclusive Interview: Julia Glander, Connor Allston, and Kristin Shields of Tipping Point’s ‘Lungs’
It’s never an easy decision to decide when and how to bring a baby into the world, especially when the world feels like it’s falling apart around you. With the changing global landscape constantly in flux, there is never a perfect time to take the plunge and have a child. That pressure has to feel insurmountable at times, and is at the center of Tipping Point Theatre’s latest production, Lungs, which arrives at the Northville theater this evening! Billed as a two-person show, Lungs is an intimate look at the dynamics between a couple as they discuss embarking on one of life’s most extraordinary journeys. Ahead of its arrival, we sat down and spoke with the director of Lungs, Julia Glander, as well as the two stars of the show, Connor Allston and Kristin Shields!
In this exclusive Box Seat Babe interview, Julia Glander discusses why this show feels incredibly important given the state of the world and how it fits into the overarching theme of family, which has been the connective tissue from this season at Tipping Point. Allston and Shields also discuss what drew them to this project and the pressure that comes from a two-person show such as Lungs! In which aspects do these two characters reflect the actors? How has this show challenged all three parties? All these answers and more lie within this exciting interview showcasing the final show of Tipping Point’s season!
Witness exceptional theater with Tipping Point’s Lungs!
