\n\n\n\nInterview: “Riveting Riffs” Magazine by Joe Montague:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\nThese are heady days for actress and singer Sierra Rein, she has now returned to what she enjoys doing most in life, performing on stage and in front of a camera, after two years of much of the arts world being put on an involuntary pause due to COVID. She has two podcasts on the go, a short film in post-production, appears in two episodes of a series to be broadcast and streamed on FX on Hulu this fall and she has several exciting music gigs coming up. Believe or not that is just barely scratching the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sierra Rein (pronounced Rhine as in rhinestones) talks about her role in the FX Hulu series\u00a0Fleishman is in Trouble<\/em>, \u201cIt came out of the blue. It was January of this year and my agent who hadn\u2019t really talked to me for a while said hey can you put yourself on tape for this TV show? I didn\u2019t really know much about the project, so I did a tiny bit of Googling. I was like oh, okay there is this character Cherry who is in the book Fleishman is in Trouble, but there wasn\u2019t very much about her. I had my husband do the other dialogue and I shot the scene and sent it in. This was when we were in lockdown a little bit (New York City). We were slowing emerging and putting our toes back into the river of humanity of this year.<\/p>\n(read the full interview<\/a>)<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\nLittle acting choices took Sierra Rein’s “Moments in the Woods” and Sarah Rice’s “Stay With Me” into personal little corners of storytelling that might have sparked a little something new in the interpretation, and both ladies had the audience in the palms of their hands the whole time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n“\u2026Sierra Rein\u2019s performance as Ruth, one of the professional bridesmaids. Ruth (also the name of the patient she plays) keeps her puppet Matilda with her at all times, singing and communicating through it exclusively. It\u2019s so completely part of her that there is a moment toward the end of the play when you realize how artificial that unity is. The moment has the effect of watching a magic trick performed, with awe and heartwarming wonder.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n“Fuller has adapted the piece by adding a framing device that places this performance in a Maine mental hospital\u2014the staff and a few of the patients are the players in the operetta-within-the-show. This set-up, if not absolutely necessary, adds a layer of lighthearted whimsy and allows for some playful gags, the best of which is the use of a puppet (Matilda) as one of the professional bridesmaids. Sierra Rein “plays” Matilda and she is superb\u2014if G&S can’t encompass Avenue Q-style theatricks, then who can?<\/strong>“<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Then I heard her do the \u201cOnly Make Believe\u201d duet from Oklahoma with another wonderful singer at Salon and THEN, I was shocked to hear her wailing our a Janis Joplin<\/strong> tune in the latest Marquee Five show.
