Rebecca Roman Redd spotlight: Chester Poon

We’re thrilled to continue the spotlight of the creative team for Rebecca Roman Redd at the Most Dangerous Hour with Chester Poon, who played Tristan. Chester is a longtime collaborator with Flux,  acting in productions like Jane the Plain, and we’ll be presenting a reading of Chester’s play The Belle later this year. We asked Chester a few questions based on Montserrat Mendez’s dizzyingly funny and brilliant new play, which you can learn more about here.

On a scale of 1 to werewolf, how close of a relationship do you have with the moon?

My dog only howls at firetrucks and ambulances. And then I howl with her in solidarity. So I would say a 1.

Finish the sentence: the best kind of tart is a ____ tart.

Chocolate.

Who did you end up stuck with when the pandemic first struck…and how did that go?

My dog Pepper. Went pretty well, I think.

Chester Poon (he/him): After a very very very long hiatus from theater, I’m very excited to return to the theater world!
