We recently sat down with the talented Jared Shirkey, who is making his TIC debut in the role of 'Mark,' the protagonist's tried and true boyfriend.
Whale Song is set in NYC. Where are you from? Do you consider yourself a New Yorker now?

If you were an animal, what would you be?
Definitely a wolf. Their sense of loyalty and affection always drew me. Also the ability to go LONE WOLF!
When you sing in the shower, what's your go-to song?
I get made fun of by my roommates for singing Into the Woods. All the parts. Every single one.
How do you feel about whales?
Most of my whale knowledge is based off the documentary Free Willy. I love whales. And their freedom. Wait, it's not a documentary?
In what ways are you similar to your role as 'Mark'?
Hmmmn. The undying affection for a lover that doesn't want me? The drunken visits to win back said lover? The corny puns? No, no, I don't see any real similarities...
Favorite line in the play?
"I'm gonna put a baby inside of you." -- Mark
Classic romantic drunk Mark -- ha ha!
