Rachel Bitney Wecht: Time and pressure

Summary: Actress Rachel Bitney Wecht describes the challenges of wooing a physicist: The Story Collider’s own co-founder, Brian Wecht. “I knew that with enough time and pressure you could take a dinosaur and make gasoline. So I figured with enough time I could take a physicist and make a boyfriend.” Rachel Bitney Wecht started acting and improvising at the Brave New Workshop in Minneapolis, MN. After moving to Boston she was cast as a Mainstage performer with the Improv Asylum, where she wrote and performed five shows a week for three years.
