It was a treat, speaking with actress Juliet Landau today. I recently saw her in the play “Danny and The Deep Blue Sea” – details and ticket info here – and was so taken with her performance that I asked if she could come on 96-7 KCAL Rocks to talk about her work – past, present and future. Oh, and if you missed the link Juliet was talking about with her project with Gary Oldman, it’s right here.

She’s bright, intelligent, funny and very talented. If you’re a fan of the “Buffy” and “Angel” TV Series, you’ll love hearing what she’s doing to keep that fan base excited. Give a listen. And see her play at the Crown City Theater in North Hollywood.
