This fall, we're thrilled to be working with such an amazing line up of talented folks, and we recently sat down with Molly Ballerstein, our indispensable assistant director, and asked her a few questions!
Whale Song is set in NYC. When did you get here, where are you from?
I got here in January of 2011 and was welcomed to the city by a glorious snowstorm that shut down the subways and didn't allow trash to be picked up for a few weeks. I'm from upstate NY, near the Adirondacks, but came to NYC from lovely Boston.
Do you consider yourself a New Yorker?

If you were an animal, what animal would you be, and why?
In a very long discussion with a close friend, we decided that I would be a frog. The main reason was their being cold-blooded and needing to lay in the sun to warm up. This along with their short stature... I guess makes me a frog!
Favorite line in the play?
"Because the land is good, but what if the sea is even better?" -- Maya
This is a beautifully-worded reminder that sometimes in order to find a place where we are really content with life, we have to risk what we've previously found comfortable.
Indeed! Molly is a prolific and funny tweeter, too. Follow her on Twitter @fedoramolly.
