DRAMA. with Connor & Dylan MacDowell13 Aug 2025

“Cruel Theatre Girlie Summer” with Chiara Aurelia

Dylan and Connor are joined by Chiara Aurelia (John Proctor is the Villain, Dilaria). It’s a cruel, theatre girlie summer, y’all! The twins are GAGGED to be joined by Chiara, who is currently making her Broadway debut as Shelby Holcomb in John Proctor is the Villain. We discuss the hit play, how she went from seeing her childhood friend Sadie Sink in the show to finding herself starring in it within a matter of months, and what goes DOWN in the cast group chat. After binging the TV series Cruel Summer all week, Connor and Dylan are eager to chat with Chiara about her experience on the show. From gaggy costars Olivia Holt, Sarah Drew, and Froy Gutierrez, to filming three timelines in one day, to the shocking twist ending, Chiara mentions it ALL. She just finished making her off-Broadway debut in Dilaria, alongside Ella Stiller and friend of the pod Christopher Briney. We also discuss Pretty Little Liars, Happy Gilmore 2, Weapons, and Hysteria. You’re going to love this chat with Chiara. Don’t miss her running for the green light in John Proctor is the Villain through September 7 only.
