Summer and Smoke
December 19th, 2007
Laura Leo Ownby finally got a lead at Theatre of Western Springs and it was a HUGE lead. She played Alma Winemiller in Summer and Smoke by Tennessee Williams for Mainstage 2, 2007. This show was a personal favorite of the theatre’s creative director so it was a big deal. The part was gigantic with huge monologues and lines on all but 2 pages of the script.
As I have written about before, I think Laura is a great dramatic actor and she really nailed this part.
