Kathleen Turner on screen vs. stage performance
Kathleen Turner was in Minneapolis starring in the national tour of the play 'HIGH' by Matthew Lombardo. The play was at the Pantages Theatre April 19-22.
Kathleen Turner, a two-time Golden Globe winner, became a household name in the 1980s, starring in movies such as "Body Heat," "Romancing the Stone," and "War of the Roses."
But her first love is the stage. In 'HIGH,' Turner plays Sister Jamison Connelly, who is asked to help a teenage drug addict.
Kerri Miller spoke with Turner at the Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis about the difference between the screen and the stage, the importance of listening to other actors, and the connection between the performer and the audience.
