Bonnie Cullum - Co-Founder & Producing Artistic Director at The VORTEX
Description
Bonnie Cullum, along with three fellow graduate students, started The VORTEX Repertory Company back in 1988. From the very beginning, the group wanted to make theatre in Austin that was new and different. They wanted it to be provocative, push the envelope, and tackle politically charged issues.
More than 30 years later, The VORTEX is still doing just that, inside their theatre off Manor Road in East Austin.
Bonnie still serves as the theatre’s Producing Artistic Director. In my conversation with her today, she shares why making new, provocative theatre was so important to her. Bonnie shares what some of the most memorable and shocking moments have been on stage. She also discusses her efforts to make theatre a more essential part of the community here in Austin.
