1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Welcome to Season 5, Episode 47!&amp;nbsp;We’re huge fans of East West Players, and our guest this episode, Dom Magwili, has worked with them since 1974. If that’s all he did, it would be an amazing career. However, Dom has also been an actor, director, educator, and author. His latest work is Scientific Dragons: The Adventure of Ensun Castle. It’s an entertaining and thrilling adventure that mixes historical figures, key fictional characters, Filipino culture, and a healthy dose of imagination in a steampunk environment. Among the work he’s created for stage and screen include Much Adobo About Nothing, A Jive Bomber’s Christmas (which had a 10-year run at the Japanese American National Museum), and One Puka Puka Christmas. His first book was Legends from the&amp;nbsp;First Hemisphere: The Infernal Promise.&amp;nbsp; In our conversation, Dom shares what inspired him to pursue creativity as a profession, his journey to being an author, some of the themes of Scientific Dragons, and more. To learn more about Dom, you can visit his website, follow him on Instagram @dmagwili, and, of course buy Scientific Dragons or The Infernal Promise.
