Robin Goodrin Nordli is one of my favorite OSF’s Actresses. I saw her do Hedda Gabler the best Hedda EVER. The next night she did a smaller role in Present Laughter. She walked in – back to the audience dropped her coat revealing a plunging backline. If that wasn’t amazing enough every member of the audience could tell what her objective was. She is an amazing, nuanced actress. She has played Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing, Rosalind in As You Like It, Oliva and Viola in 12th Night, Queen Margaret in Henry 6 part 1-3 and on and on. All of these at OSF.
There is a short article about her in the Oregon Shakespeare Festival souvenir program. She auditioned NINE times before OSF hired her. That's NINE YEARS of auditioning.
If at once you don’t succeed, try, try again.
