Irish luck guides John Lawlor to Berkshire Playhouse
John Lawlor recalls a string of breaks from Troy to Denver to Fort Belvoir and Vietnam to Center Stage Baltimore. He earned an equity contract at Berkshire after learning a script from a library copy and winning a chance in Streetcar named Desire, then eyed future roles while planning Dracula after the Berkshire run. He credits luck and mentors like Beatrice Straight and Thornton Wilder with shaping his ascent toward NY work.
