Jessica B. Hill’s childhood dream came true
When Jessica B. Hill was a kid, she saw a play at the Stratford Festival that she found so inspirational she wrote the word “Stratford” on a piece of paper and put it on her ceiling. Now, she’s an award-winning actor and playwright who’s appearing in three plays at Stratford this season: “As You Like It,” “Sense and Sensibility” and “Dangerous Liaisons.” Jessica sits down with Tom Power to talk about her life in theatre, her meaty new roles, and her own play about Shakespeare’s alleged muse and collaborator, Emilia Bassano.
