Erin Cahill Talks Shakespeare's 'The Seven Ages of Man'

Earlier this week, actress ERIN CAHILL — Power Ranger, Call of Duty: Black Ops, and mainstay in the Hallmark Channel’s Countdown to Christmas — joined me for some 5AM StoryTalk. You can listen to that here if you haven’t already. Today, she returns for a bonus episode exclusive to my bad-ass paid subscribers whose support keeps the lights on here. We’ll be discussing a seminal piece of art from her life — William Shakespeare’s “THE SEVEN AGES OF MAN” MONOLOGUE from As You Like It.

You might know this passage as the ‘all the world’s a stage’ monologue. As a child who grew up on the stage, it changed how Erin looked at acting. We’re going to get into why, what it taught her, and where she is in her own journey through the seven ages. She even gives a soft performance of the monologue, the first time she’s delivered it aloud in decades (what a treat, especially as she heats up!).

If you’d like to hear more from Erin Cahill, but aren’t yet a paid subscriber yourself, you can upgrade now for $6 US a month or $60 a year. You’ll also get full access to hundreds of articles and educational resources for screenwriters, arts seminars where you can seek direct help from me, and all of my podcast episodes — including bonus eps like this one — weeks, sometimes months earlier than you would if you subscribed to me at, say, Apple or Spotify.

And don’t forget to listen to the first part of my conversation with Erin!
