Grammy in Overalls and On Stage: Konversations with Keeme

I love working with aspiring youth - and that’s part of the mission of New Paradigm Theatre in Connecticut. In the summer production of Bye Bye Birdie, I got to be the professional Guest Artist working with teens and other adults as Mae Peterson.

I also loved being interviewed by then-14-year-old Keeme, a wonderful young man. I wore my trademark overalls (as opposed to the fur coat Mae wears) for this interview. Good thing, since we were painting rocks as we spoke!
