Our guest for this episode of "Local Legends with Devin" is actor, director, and teacher Maria Gobetti. In 1979, Gobetti co-founded The Victory Theatre Center alongside Tom Ormeny. Together, Gobetti and Ormeny are co-artistic directors of the theatre and also run the Gobetti/Ormeny Acting Studio.
The two have been recognized for their accomplishments in the arts with prestigious honors, such as the 2023 Stage Raw Lifetime Achievement Award.
Around 200 productions or workshops have been carried out at the Victory over the years, with over 80% showcasing new plays. In our chat, Gobetti discusses the history of the Victory, directing its most recent production, "Home Front," and more.
