Afternoon Drive 12-12-24 Craig Sumberg

Mary Jacobsen speaks with Broadway performer, writer and composer Caren Lyn Manuel Tackett about  “Slide; a Quest for Mental Health,” which she wrote and will perform at the Firehouse Center for the Arts on February 7th and 8th at 7:30 p.m. and Feb. 9th at 2 p.m.

“Slide”'s director, Colin Gregory accompanies Tackett, along with Kate McSwain of American Ice Theatre.

Tackett grew up in Boxford and performed in shows at the Newburyport skating rink, where her father was an announcer. She began her musical theater career on Broadway and on world tours in 1995 with the role of Eponine in "Les Miserables," and went on to perform roles in “Rent,” “High Fidelity,” “Hair,” “Brooklyn,” “Evita” and “Grease,” among others. But Tackett says her “primary passion” has always been “creating and sharing my own music and productions.”

Tackett discusses why she chose in “Slide” to explore a “subject that is often not part of the cultural conversation; the misdiagnosis and mistreatment of those diagnosed with mental illness in our society.” She describes how “Slide” presents  a fictionalized account of her own quest for mental health.

“Slide” is billed as a “staged concert experience” incorporating multiple arts including music, painting, dance, theater, and even ice skating. Caren explains how she utilizes these different art forms in the performance.
