Bill McCallum, from the Guthrie Theater, was our featured speaker. Bill has been an actor at the Guthrie for over 20 years and is currently in the production of Macbeth. It was interesting to hear about the Minneapolis theater from the perspective of an actor, and what the challenges are for a person working in the field of theater.
