Featured review
Powerhouse was a fun show. I am a native Washingtonian and I was often cast as background. Since the show was shot and produced locally, we traveled to many interesting city locations to set up and shoot scenes. I worked primarily in Washington DC and Alexandria.
Every episode had a variety of cast members, all of whom were fun to work alongside. Occasionally we had guest stars.
With a small-ish budget, the production crew still managed to produce consistently very fine work.
Debra Leonard, costume designer, was great at pulling together wardrobes for each episode that varied accordingly to the plot that week. Debra still works in the DC metro area costuming for a chidren's theatre.
As always, Bonnie was spot on with her casting and she was another friendly, kind backstage production member.
