1. How has the Paradoja shows evolved and as it grows what are somethings that remain consistent?
Paradoja evolves from each other we get our shows, our scenes, basically all our ideas from our own fucked up little minds. so as we grow Paradoja simply follows. what remains consistent is that we all get along and we talk so we all know how each other thinks so we all get a general knowledge of how each other work.
2. What do you consider to be the groups core philosophy, either in the live shows or in preparing/creating the shows.
fuck bitches get money... screw that more like you get aids that shits not funny, but when i think of Paradoja I think of a quote that quote is "The things that make us different, are the things that make us awesome." - Tim Mcilrath. and that quote to me is perfect for our Paradoja family because we are far from normal, but if you look back maybe 25-30 words it explains the rest itself.
3. What do you think is Paradoja's reputation, meaning what do you think people might expect from the shows? Why does the audience not just keep coming back but grow?
Paradoja's reputation is at an average right now, but Paradoja's reputation grows because of the diversity of all the cast and crew. Yes we are all theater kids, but that doesn't mean we all hang out with them 24/7 I have friends outside of theater as well as everyone else. So we get to talking then they start to watch and then they talk and it just goes in a domino effect spreading like One Direction’s hit song " What Makes You Beautiful"
4. What has working on the Paradoja shows taught you?
Paradoja has taught me multiple things like being more confident in myself and not to give a shit what anyone else thinks about me. and that really helped coming from a resume *coonan not resume, but idk how to put the thing over the "U"* of being bullied for countless years and other stuff I truly learned what a family meant and I learned how to stick up for myself as well.
5.What do you think of Dave Coonan both personally and professionally? is there anything you have learned from him?
What I think of Dave Coonan is that he is a very intelligent and experienced man. What I have heard is that he is a very down to earth kind of guy and he really cares for hiss students and others around him. I used to be very negative towards all my ideas, but Coonan sort of helped me get over that and make me think greater about myself.
6.What do you think of Mike Pagano both personally and professionally? is there anything you have learned from him?
Mike and I have gone down similar paths in our lives, we experience a lot of the same things and personally he is an amazing guy and professionally he is one of the most hilarious and talented guys I have ever known.
7. What do you think of John Ortiz both personally and professionally? is there anything you have learned from him?
What do I think of John Ortiz? I think he is a very talented actor/singer/performer if anything he has taught me the most in this entire cast/crew because i have known him for quite some time now. John has taught me how to be a leader while still being able to have fun at the same time. We have always been able to connect through music, video games, and other hobbies.
8.What’s the atmosphere like during a rehearsal?
The atmosphere during a paradoja rehearsal is like being at a carnival there are so many different things to see and hear. Having so many people can get hectic, but it always ends up with us getting what needs to be done so we don't disappoint. Also with everyone having their own different ideas we can make up hundreds of scenarios of what we might want to put together.
9. How has Paradoja allowed you to showcase/explore you individual talent?
Paradoja has helped me explore my individual talent by letting me be more carefree with what I say or what ideas my mind will come up with. being around so many different people makes it so we have our own ideas, but also they merge with others ideas as well to create something greater then just one person.
