Tucson Interviewed: Esther Blue Almazán

The first formal theatrical stage production in Tucson, Arizona has a story.  Probably.  I actually don’t know what it is.  It’s not that I don’t care--it’s more a matter of skill and competency.  Do you think you can do better?  Go ahead, then.  Try googling “First theatrical stage production in Tucson” and see what kind of results you get.

Oh, really?  No, I wasn't aware of that.  Clearly I did not even bother to perform that search query.  Look, friend, I’m not the theatre beat reporter, okay?  I’m just a man named after a fish trying to do whatever it is that I’m doing.

I caught up with the subject of this interview as she worked the box office for Borderlands Theater’s production of Maria’s Circular Dance and Trash at the Zuzi Theater.  She is a writer, actor, director, co-founder of the Something Something Writers Group, and not 14-years-old.  Tucson Interviewed, this is Esther Blue Almazán interviewed...
