EP3 - Donal O'Hanlon - Actor

Donal O’Hanlon’s joy and passion for acting has lit up the stage and entertained audiences for years.  Donal has become a focal point in enhancing the legacy of The New Point Players continuing the tremendous breeding ground for acting talent brought to prominence by the legend that is Sean Hollywood.

I had the pleasure of watching his talent first hand as Donal became a fabulous foil for TaxiJo in our 2022 production.  I’m intrigued by his process and want to know where this passion for acting comes from on this latest edition of The Scene.
