Episode Twenty-Three: Karen Holness
Before Karen Holness was an in-demand film and TV actress, she was dancing, singing, and acting in top-tier musical theatre productions like Joseph and the Amazing Color Dreamcoat with Donnie Osmond, the Canadian touring production of Rent, and the Oscar winning film, Chicago. Today, Karen has more than 100 screen credits to her name, including Flight 93, Fringe, Arrow, Lucifer, Smallville, Big Fat Liar 2, and Katie in Hallmark Channel’s The Chronicle Mysteries – and the list continues to grow with plum roles in Netflix’s Always Be My Maybe, in which she portrays a Diana Ross impersonator who ends up in some interesting situations, as well as a recurring role on The 100 which she describes as one of the weirdest characters she’s ever played. Karen reflects on her journey from “Broadway Baby” triple threat to genre-hopping screen actress in this fascinating and funny episode of the YVR Screen Scene Podcast.
