THE ELEPHANT PLAY Spotlight: Chester Poon

We’re thrilled to continue the creative team of The Elephant Play by Kelly O’Donnell with performer Chester Poon! Chester most recently appeared in God Splat and Rebecca Roman Redd at the Most Dangerous Hour, and we’re developing his play, The Hardest Goodbye. The questions are inspired by Kelly’s beautiful play—make sure to RSVP for the 6/27 and 6/28 readings in NYC!

Who is your favorite fictional pachyderm?

Dumbo. My toddler years were spent watching the 1941 film everyday.

Elephants are fabled to never forget. What’s your memory like these days?

Fortunately, my memory is pretty good. Lately, I’ve been reflecting a lot on my high school and college years. Possibly because of the last reading I did.
