WDCB's Gary Zidek talks to theatre artist Ida Cuttler about her upcoming solo performance, COMFORTABLE SHOES.

“It definitely doesn’t give you a chance to second guess any of your writing, because you’re like I have so much time, I can put it all in, we’ll find out what happens. So it’s a big sense of experimentation, a big acceptance of failure, and not knowing what’s going to happen in the moment.” - Ida Cuttler talking about her process getting ready for her new workshop performance.
