Work Awesome Podcast: Episode 6 Karen Brelsford

By Mike Vardy

Work Awesome – December 20, 2010

“The idea of being a Renaissance person really stood out to me…someone who has expanded their mind in science and in art and having a well-rounded being, and that’s what I wanted to do. So I started with the science and it took me to where I wanted to go, and then it was time to work on the arts. And now, I have found my niche. I couldn’t be happier. I’m busy, I’m working, I’m growing, and it just seems limitless now.” Karen Brelsford

“Zephyer Rep takes a fresh look at this work and sets it in the 1980s, with decidedly interesting results.”

“When Helena [Karen Brelsford], enters to tie up the loose ends, we learn that she is sort of jilted, beautiful in a geeky sort of way…and totally smitten with the unworthy Demetrius.”

“Grab your best friends, especially those who love ’80s music, and be prepared to laugh out loud. It can only do you good!”
