LoveNotes: Broadway to Berks w/ Wanda Colon
From HGTV star to Hollywood actress to theater producer, Wanda Colon's creative journey has come full circle as she returns to her Reading roots with an exciting new project. After conquering television as a design expert and even sharing an on-screen kiss with Jean-Claude Van Damme (which she hilariously describes as "the worst kiss of my life"), Wanda is now channeling her passion into "LoveNotes Berks," a powerful storytelling experience premiering October 11th at the Miller Center.
The show features twelve brave performers sharing deeply personal stories about love in all its forms—the heartwarming, the heartbreaking, and everything in between. During her conversation with Brad Weisman, Wanda reveals how the project came together through her connection with Heather Christie, who originated the LoveNotes concept with successful performances in New York. What makes this production unique is that each storyteller not only performs but has written their own authentic narrative, creating an intimate evening that moved even Wanda's husband to tears during rehearsals.
Having spent nearly two decades away from Reading pursuing her entertainment career and co-founding the Academy of Home Staging and Design, Wanda speaks candidly about the unexpected joy of returning home. "I have such an appreciation for home," she reflects, touched by how warmly the community has embraced her vision. The production represents more than entertainment—it's a celebration of vulnerability, connection, and the universal experiences that bind us together.
Whether you're a theater enthusiast or simply looking for a meaningful date night, "LoveNotes Berks" promises an evening of emotional storytelling complemented by musical performances from talented vocalists. The night continues with a special afterparty at the Peanut Bar featuring dinner specials created for the occasion. Secure your tickets at lovenotesberks.com and be part of this extraordinary homecoming celebration that might just inspire you to share your own story.

Speaker 2:Hello.
Speaker 1:We're back. You know what I'm so messed up today? Because we're not streaming.
Speaker 2:Yes, it throws you off, huh.
Speaker 1:It really throws me off. I'm like amazed, Like I'm like okay, we actually have somebody in the studio today.
Speaker 2:We're in the studio today, baby.
Speaker 1:This is wonderful and actually it makes me happy. It makes me happy we have a somebody I've been trying to get on here. Actually, I shouldn't say that I had thought about having her on here, and then it would go out of my mind and then it would come back in my mind and then I would. Just now, all of a sudden, Heather Christie calls me and says you need to have this person on your show, and she said Wanda Cologne, which is who our guest is said Wanda Cologne, which is who?
Speaker 1:our guest is yeah, but she said Wanda Cologne. I'm like, well, yeah, I said I've always wanted to have her on here. So, wanda, how you doing?
Speaker 2:I'm so good, I'm so happy to be here, yeah.
Speaker 1:It's awesome Finally have you here. I know it took like a village.
Speaker 2:I mean and years, I mean. I feel like we have run through the same circles, but for some reason we're not in the same area.
Speaker 1:Unbelievable. It is weird, because there's certain people that we know. We know different people that are the same, and I know your husband yes, for years.
Speaker 2:You know a couple of my husbands.
Speaker 1:I know a couple of your husbands. Hey, I wasn't going to say that, but if you want to say that, you can. It's funny. Third time's a charm. That's what you said. Yes, third time's a charm. Before we started recording, you said third time's a charm. Yeah, I do know a couple of heroes. So the reason you're here today is, like I said, heather Christie, who has been on the show before, and this is her. This is her. Oh, excuse me, this is her book, and we talked about love notes and we're going to talk about that a little bit again, but she was on the show and she's, she did a whole thing up in Broadway or up in New York City, like a big deal I performed.
Speaker 1:You were there, yes, okay, so now she had said to me, she said you know, I want to spread this thing out throughout the whole United States.
Speaker 2:This is what I want to do.
Speaker 1:This is what I want to do. I'm like, all right, cool. And she actually had said something to me at one point about doing something here locally. I'm like, yeah, no, that's, that's not going to happen. I don't have that kind of bandwidth at all and that's not my thing. I mean, you know, you need somebody that's been in an entertainment producing and all that stuff. So she said that that you were going to be doing the local love notes production. Love notes Burks. Love notes Burks. Yes, now who would have thought Burks?
Speaker 1:would be in the love note category.
Speaker 2:You know, I think it's because we're both from this area. So how I heard of Heather was actually a friend of mine said she's writing a book and I love your story, you should write in your story. So I reached out to her and she's like well, the deadline is like in a couple of days. So I was like, oh wow, that's crazy. And so I just started typing and I did third times a charm and I sent it into her and she's like I'd like to use it in my book. Oh, that's fantastic.
Speaker 1:You're in this book. She's in the book.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so I'm in the book right.
Speaker 1:And so I was like, hey, I'm published, that's great, that's right, that's cool, though, and what a great start of being published.
Speaker 2:It's really super cool. And so then, a year later, she said you know she's doing the show on Broadway and would I like to perform, right? And so I said yes. And so I live in Florida Most of the time. I live there half the year, um and so you have it rough, I can tell. Oh, you know.
Speaker 1:I'm going to guess the time of the year. The half that you don't live here is coming up soon. Yeah, Okay.
Speaker 2:So after I did the show it was funny during the show she's like you should produce and I said you know, let's just see how it is. So she's really smart.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:So of course, the adrenaline is pumping the night of the show. And we did three shows and it went so well. And she's like so how about producing? I'm like, yes, we need to do this.
Speaker 1:She got you at the right time. She knew you. She knew you. It is. It's so much easier to get a commitment when, when everybody's pumped up. You know that's great.
Speaker 2:But well, look where you are now. You're doing it's so exciting and you know it's in my wheelhouse for sure absolutely but I haven't done theater in a long time, and I I mean when I had to do this show in new york. I was like you're nervous it was in my bucket list because I had performed in england, I performed in philadelphia, I performed in los angeles, but I had never done a show in new york wow.
Speaker 1:So you know, yeah, every thespian I mean you got that, got that right. That's the number one.
Speaker 2:Exactly so. It's definitely in my wheelhouse, but I was a little rusty. You know I started theater here at Genesius Theater.
Speaker 1:There's a plug for Genesius.
Speaker 2:There you go, there you go. That's where I started, isn't that?
Speaker 1:funny. My daughter did a show with Genesius.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she was. It was just so amazing.
Speaker 1:That's so cool, and so you come all the way back from and you were in LA, so let's dive into that. And then when we get through your past here, which is an amazing career, we can get back into the show and talk about how that works, because we need a refresher on it. I know that Heather had told us what the show is about and how it works and all that stuff, but I'd love to have that kind of back in my mind again.
Speaker 1:Yeah, absolutely Since there's a show coming up, yeah, so let's talk about. You were on HGTV, yes, and TLC. The HGTV show was 24 hour. Home design, is that?
Speaker 2:right 24 hour.
Speaker 1:design 24 hour design Really crazy.
Speaker 2:So I started doing interior design as soon as I went to Los Angeles. I was painting murals, doing whatever I had to do so that I wasn't a waitress.
Speaker 1:Right. And you know not that there's anything wrong with waitressing but I had been there, done that you know, and.
Speaker 2:I was like I don't want to do that. So I was doing interior design, I was doing murals, I was pretty much doing anything Um, and then going to different auditions and this audition came up for HGTV and it was like it was crazy because there were I auditioned a thousand people Like no, no, a thousand people there were at least a thousand people that were auditioning and I just literally was like a girl from Reading you know, and I was psyching myself out.
Speaker 1:Like, you know, like, oh, my God she's cuter than I am.
Speaker 2:Why?
Speaker 1:did I wear that. Oh my god, her shoes are so cute and here I am with my little portfolio of murals unbelievable you know, so that's what you took in there, and to show that you're an artist that you do this.
Speaker 2:This is what you do, and so, because it's not just about the acting of that show.
Speaker 1:You got to know your stuff a little bit.
Speaker 2:I'm saying, saying like you, there's a village there's a village, of course.
Speaker 1:Of course there's a lot of people that help.
Speaker 2:Absolutely.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so what we see on TV on these things is definitely it's TV.
Speaker 2:Yes, but what was cool about the show was it wasn't 24 hours. So we showed up and we had to finish our design in 24 hours and some days. This, you know. We were there for a good 20, 22 hours.
Speaker 1:It was crazy. So when you say that you did that in 24 hours, so you were actually designing, redesigning or redecorating a house in 24 hours In 24 hours.
Speaker 2:Wow, that's a lot. It was a lot, that's a lot, yeah, and somebody's there like this, like looking at the watch ticking. The clock is ticking and you know um, you know, and so it was. It was like the greatest experience, you know. I have to say like be careful, what you wish for, you know. So I had like four callbacks. Oh wow, I had to keep coming back and keep coming back, and it was between then me and this other girl Did you beat her up. No, they picked the other girl.
Speaker 1:I was hoping. She said she saw her in a dark alley and kicked the crap out of her, but they did.
Speaker 2:They picked the other girl, so I was they did. Yes, initially they picked the other girl. I was devastated. Then you beat her up. No, I totally did so. Then, um, she had a few skeletons in her closet.
Speaker 1:You gotta be kidding me. I'm not kidding, so they did the whole research thing.
Speaker 2:She was on set for one episode and somebody looked her up.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, and this was before social media, right, so somebody had to dig right.
Speaker 2:So how much research did you do on her?
Speaker 1:okay, that's between us she sent a little envelope with with pictures in it, and that was it all over, and so then, they called me.
Speaker 2:They called me like a week later and said can you be on set tomorrow? And so then I was like that's, that was the start of my hosting career Did you ask for more money now that they were in a pitch. Seriously, I should have.
Speaker 1:You should have.
Speaker 2:Hugo, where were you back then?
Speaker 1:Yeah, Hugo, he's the negotiator. He's the negotiator. That's crazy. What a great story.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was cool, it was cool.
Speaker 1:I love it that there was some, but that's just. That's just like being at the right place right time.
Speaker 2:You know what it really was and I feel like, but you were prepared for it, your life prepared you for it. Listen, it was. It was the hardest thing. And going through all those auditions and, you know, psyching myself out and then finally getting to a place where I'm like, why not me, you're?
Speaker 1:exactly right. Why not me Exactly right?
Speaker 2:me. You're exactly right. Why not me?
Speaker 1:I deserve this as much as anybody here, and so I kind of went in with that mindset Good for you, yeah, why not me? That's so true. No, because a lot of times people go why me? Why would it be me? Why, why should I get it?
Speaker 1:But, it is interesting how you but you, you were really the perfect person for that, because the way you you were theater, so you went from theater to design, there you go. I mean that because the way you you were theater, so you went from theater to design there you go. I mean that's the perfect match.
Speaker 2:They were really looking for diversity, like they wanted somebody of color, which was really cool puerto rican, so it was.
Speaker 1:That was really cool and it's awesome, um, you could go for italian, though a little bit too I think, yeah, I could do a lot I could see if it was like an italian show, you could have totally got that too. Now you do, you have that look, yeah, so it was kind of cool.
Speaker 2:It was a cool time in. La, because I did get to play a lot of different things. I got to do a lot, that's awesome. It was, you know, the hardest and funnest time of my life. Yeah, for sure. Meet a lot of cool people, very cool people, cool people, very cool people, yeah, yeah, that's awesome yeah.
Speaker 1:That's really neat. And then, so then TLC. Then was after that, right, yes, did you do the whole go through the whole audition? No, or did you now have clout? Now, all of a sudden, I'm somebody. That's cool. That was really cool. That's really cool.
Speaker 2:That only happened that one time. Everything else to audition for, but that was. I got a call from my agent and they were like TLC would like to meet you, and it was like I went thinking it was going to be an audition and it was just a formality.
Speaker 1:Let's talk about contracts. That's awesome. And then you're so then, yeah, so now they well, the thing is, they know you can do it. Yeah, that was really cool, because on HGTV I was the assistant interior designer, on TLC I was you were the thingv.
Speaker 2:I was the assistant interior designer on tlc.
Speaker 1:I was you were the thing that was a big team. Wow the main role now, what show? Which one did you have more fun? So I think homemade simple only because I did make more money yeah, right, okay, and also it was your thing, it was my thing, I had I was able to really decide what the designs were going to look like. You know it was, it was my, it was my thing, so I love that a lot. Yeah, very cool Any theater out there. Did you do any other acting out there? I?
Speaker 2:did do. Yes, um, I actually did a movie with, uh, jean-claude Van Damme.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, jean-claude.
Speaker 2:Now you're fancy.
Speaker 1:Whoa, was he the second husband he?
Speaker 2:wasn't, but you know what's funny? I had a kissing scene with him, oh.
Speaker 1:Yes, let's see it. Let's see it, we're going to play it.
Speaker 2:The movie is called Swelter, swelter. Yes, and so it's really kind of funny because you know everybody was like so excited. It was the worst kiss of my life. Oh no, I don't doubt that yeah, because sometimes those guys are just, they're not really. I just wasn't expecting like yeah, he went in for it, oh he went for it oh yeah, so no holding back.
Speaker 1:Oh no, no, yeah, that's a little crazy, maybe he liked it, he went right in. He went right in he wanted to be be second husband.
Speaker 2:I did like this, whoa.
Speaker 1:Like what is going on. So then after like I am not kidding 10 takes I was like oh my gosh, 10 takes of the same thing, 10 takes of the same thing I said to the director do you have a minute? Do you have anybody else that could be like a kiss double? I kind of think that we've got this to think that we've got this.
Speaker 1:I think we got this. He's terrible. I was like he's literally like oh my gosh, now I'm gonna have to look that movie up swelter yeah, you're not supposed to really kiss, kiss, no, but it's supposed to be like more like a fake kiss, right?
Speaker 2:yes, that's why the first time, I mean, he went all in and I was like whoa, like yeah, because it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1:I mean sometimes you'll see on tv, on movies, that that it's a real yeah and I think that's probably when there's serious chemistry with them. Swelter, you were sweltering, huh, holy crap. I'm going to look that up. What's his name again?
Speaker 2:Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Speaker 1:What else was he in?
Speaker 2:He's that karate.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's right. I grew up watching those movies oh my gosh, in Guatemala you were watching those.
Speaker 2:Oh my gosh, I always thought I always wanted to be him.
Speaker 1:Oh boy, I think you'd have to get a little taller, buddy, a little bit taller. Oh man, that's right. You guys can speak Spanish're talking about so yeah. So let's go back into actually one of the other things first, before we get back into this. You also have the Academy of Home Staging and Design.
Speaker 2:I do yeah.
Speaker 1:You're the founder or co-founder? Yeah, I'm the co-founder.
Speaker 2:I have a partner in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So it's so great because-.
Speaker 1:And that's a teaching school like a school.
Speaker 2:It is so. We certify home stagers and we also have interior design classes.
Speaker 1:And so.
Speaker 2:I was going back to LA, like every other month, to teach. So it was kind of a lot, and so I just opened up a branch in Florida. So I'm teaching in Tampa and I'm doing virtual and my no-transcript and LA does all of the.
Speaker 1:Los Angeles classes. That's a whole different thing too, it is.
Speaker 2:It was kind of nice Because you have to get certified and stuff, right yeah it was really kind of nice because I went from having, like a lot of interior design clients. I still have some, like I have a dentist office that I'm designing right now in.
Speaker 1:Florida.
Speaker 2:So I have to stay in it right to keep current and stuff, yeah, but it's really kind of cool, you know, just to be able to teach and and I actually found that as to like one of my passions. Yeah, I really enjoy it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's different. Teaching is different than than actually knowing it. Yeah, actually you learn things yourself when you teach well.
Speaker 2:So this is what I always say, like they're learning from leaders in the industry. My partner has been a home stager. I mean since, like the early 90s.
Speaker 1:Like she's been home staging, seen all this stuff.
Speaker 2:You know, and she's got a warehouse of like 10,000 square feet. She can stage up to 40 homes at one time.
Speaker 1:So it's no joke. And these aren't little homes. I'm thinking, no, they're not.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I didn't think so, and so I mean, and so and you know, and I and my you know background on television and doing interior design for over 20 years now. Yeah. So, it's really cool because they're learning from people who've done it.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Who've been successful in it?
Speaker 1:Yeah, so yeah, very cool. Yeah, I saw that and I was like, well, this is kind of fun.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so you know, I was so bored, I needed one more thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just put something else on the plate. That's right. Let's add something else to the plate.
Speaker 2:That's cool, though, but it keeps you grounded in that, in that business. I love it. Yeah, it does. Yeah, I mean, you know, stephanie Taramina.
Speaker 1:I don't, you don't, or from have Some Fun Today.
Speaker 2:No, I don't. Oh my gosh, that's unbelievable. It's funny, right? Yeah, I got to connect them here. Another local.
Speaker 1:She started out as a. She's a decorator.
Speaker 2:She's a home the place. But yeah, we'll have to get you guys in touch. She's local. I love you know. Coming back home, you know nothing's like home right. And then just reconnecting with people and seeing how far, like people have gone. Yeah, I mean, it's pretty cool.
Speaker 1:It is cool, and I'll tell you what. We have a very, very entrepreneurial area here. There's a lot of entrepreneurs, there's a lot of people that are just doing doing their thing, you know, and it's really cool to watch.
Speaker 1:It really is. Well, a lot of the stuff in our, in our studio here we got Pilsudski mustard that's local. You know we have a lot of oh, that's good stuff. So no, it's just funny how we see these people that are doing great things. Absolutely. Well, let's get into love notes, I know, yeah, let's get into this We'll save the best for last right, Absolutely.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean your.
Speaker 1:Your career has been pretty cool, though, I gotta say.
Speaker 2:I've had some fun yeah you did, so there's.
Speaker 1:there's different actors in this show.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know it was. So I think that was going to be the hardest. I thought it was going to be the hardest thing is reaching out to the community because you know, once again I haven't been here in a long time. I'm just getting settled back in and asking my theater community like audition for this, and not only do you have to audition, you have to write your own story. Yeah, do you have to audition, you have to write your own story. So I think that's what's really cool about this. It's a storyteller thing, and so it's people sharing some of their like heartaches and it's going to be like it's the good, the bad, the messy. You know, it's everything in between, and I thought it was going to be really difficult and I have a full cast of 12 people.
Speaker 1:You have 12 people, I have 12 people sharing their stories.
Speaker 2:It's going to be about an hour and a half show, Um, and it's storytelling, but it's. I mean, we had rehearsal the other day and I literally like was so emotional and like so choked up because I thought these people are trusting me with their story. First of all, like I'm not, you know, I'm not very vulnerable. Yes and so and my husband was sitting in the background and he was like I kept seeing him get up and he was getting tissues, like he literally was crying you know, and I was like this is going to be such a great show, and then I also have two singers.
Speaker 2:So do we know the singers? Kim callback, uh, rudin. Rudin doll is her married name. She is a pink marmalade.
Speaker 1:So she performs? I just saw that somewhere.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she performs here locally, so she has an amazing voice, so she's singing, and then, um, I have a male vocalist from Connecticut, oh cool. And so he's singing. Very cool so it's going to be really entertaining. And then storytelling. There's some really funny stories, some heartwarming stories. You know there's some tragic stories.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:But it's all about love, and I love when Heather says you know, we're just spreading love you know, one love note at a time.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 2:And it's really cool.
Speaker 1:It's a very unique concept. It is, it really is, and that's why, when she first talked about it, it really caught my interest of like. This is something I haven't seen anybody do.
Speaker 2:And I'm having her close the show. Oh good, so I'm having her come in and she's actually going to close the show, cause. I think it's really important to show that, first of all, two home girls are like collaborating together, so I think that's really special.
Speaker 1:That's cool, yeah, and I have some of the names here and you can probably so tell me who you can. I know Jennifer DiNatale. I knew her. She's a realtor. She's amazing. Yes, I know her very well.
Speaker 2:So you know, and so I met her a long time ago, when I was in college and I was working at Berks County Bank, and she came in and she was oh, my gosh Berks County Bank, yeah. And so I was a teller and she I don't know if she was an intern, but she came in and I hadn't seen her since then.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's funny. 30 years ago. Berks County Bank that's a name I haven't heard for a while. Yeah, unbelievable, I haven't heard for a while. Yeah.
Speaker 2:So she's in it. Um, heather is going to be performing. We have Lewis Cintron. Who is he? He has a business called uh, two guys construction something like that. Go to guys.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:And he is just being um recognized um as entrepreneur of the year for the like the. Hispanics, you know some latino thing that's happening, so I think it's really cool that is cool um, so I have him. I have um. Oh, now, I didn't, I didn't write down.
Speaker 1:I have some of the other names. Okay, I don't have them all, but that's just some. You don't have to go through all of them.
Speaker 2:I mean 12 is a lot. Yeah, debbie bollinger, so she's amazing, suzanne I know that's her mom right she is fabulous, is fabulous, she really she's, she's isn't she an actress for a long time? She is and her story is just beautiful and she just tells it beautifully. Um uh, deanna Whalen is actually a friend of mine from Florida, oh wow.
Speaker 1:And so she's coming here.
Speaker 2:So we have yeah, we have some local people, we have people from Florida coming in, so I'm just really excited.
Speaker 1:Are you going to tell you're not telling your story. Again I am.
Speaker 2:I'm going to open it up and tell my story and then introduce everyone, so I'm basically the emcee and then Heather will close the show.
Speaker 1:So give me a little structure on this Cause. It's still like very much like I don't understand how it flows. So so you come out, you start the show, so give me a little structure on this because it's still like very much like I don't understand how it flows.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so so you come out, you start the show, so the whole cast will be on stage.
Speaker 1:OK.
Speaker 2:And we're all sitting there, and so we have a podium and they go up and individually they'll come and tell their story.
Speaker 1:So the whole they're on stage.
Speaker 2:The whole time, that is interesting, right, and then you.
Speaker 1:So you say okay, next do you say who's coming up next?
Speaker 2:I introduce the next person and they come in and then they tell their story and they just tell it there at the podium, they just tell their story and it's so powerful. It's when I did it in, like I thought the same thing like how's this going to work? Yeah, and we were we were rehearsing via zoom and you know how do you rehearse them, because I guess you're just rehearsing the order and all this is rehearsing your story.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, now do you read your story.
Speaker 2:You can, or you could, have it memorized. It's going to be in a podium. Your story is going to be written there so that you can look up and yeah, you know but it's it just feels really intimate, really cool, it's it actually cool. When we performed it in New York I was like this is awesome.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, that's really cool, and she got really great reviews. Oh, I know I saw some of them. I saw them on social media and whatnot. Yeah, so do you think, now, being the producer of it, are you thinking you'll enjoy it as much as you did before? So I have to tell you.
Speaker 2:I'm way more impressed with Heather than ever before, and I did say to her.
Speaker 1:Should we cut that part out of the podcast? I?
