Description

Maggie Rogers is a Louisville-raised theater professional who is directing the Walden Theatre Alumni Company’s current show “Ghosts Like Us,” which runs through August 4th.

She is also an advocate for normalizing fatness in theatre casting -- something she wrote about for “American Theatre Magazine” in January.

Rogers spoke with WFPL’s Ashlie Stevens about the response to that piece and how Walden Theatre -- now called the Commonwealth Theatre Center -- has changed since she attended.
