**Episode Description**  
Recorded on November 20, 2024, this episode of *The Public Access Podcast* continues Rusty Diamond’s 12-year journey of authentic, engaging conversations. Since its launch on November 15, 2013, with guest Steve Magnuson, Rusty has brought his unique perspective as a former professional wrestler, stand-up comedian, musician, and hypnotist to every episode.  

Today, Rusty welcomes **Madalaina D’Angelo**, a passionate storyteller and theater artist with a talent for reimagining classic works. Madalaina shares insights into her creative process, including her adaptation of *A Midsummer Night's Dream* with a queer female lead, and how revisiting public domain stories allows for artistic freedom.  

The conversation explores:  
- The joy of adapting stories across mediums, from plays to musicals to TV.  
- The deep connection fan communities bring, featuring franchises like *Star Wars*.  
- The ethics of respecting behind-the-scenes creative processes.  
- Madalaina’s excitement about her upcoming projects and trip to London.  

Rusty and Madalaina also discuss the shared excitement of connecting with fans and their mutual appreciation for storytelling in all forms.
