Austin Pendleton began working with Steppenwolf in 1979 when he directed the Ensemble in Say Goodnight, Gracie by Ralph Pape. After that he returned to direct Loose Ends by Michael Weller, Three Sisters and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Then he was cast opposite Laurie Metcalf in Educating Rita, directed by Jeff Perry, and on the first day of rehearsal he was asked to join the Ensemble officially. Since then, he has acted and directed at Steppenwolf frequently, and most recently acted on Broadway in the Steppenwolf-originated The Minutes by Tracy Letts, directed by Anna Shapiro. He has acted over the years in several Broadway shows (the first being the original production of Fiddler on the Roof, in which he was the first Motel, the Tailor), and many off-Broadway and off-off-Broadway shows. He has also directed in these venues, winning a Tony nomination for The Little Foxes (with Elizabeth Taylor) and an Obie Award for Three Sisters (with Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie Gyllenhaal). He’s appeared in about 300 movies, and on TV in recurring roles in Oz and Homicide. He has written three plays: Orson’s Shadow (which started at Steppenwolf, in the production, directed by David Cromer, that moved to off-Broadway and ran for a little under a year); Uncle Bob (the second production of the play, after its New York premiere); and Booth, which, after its New York premiere played at Writers’ Theater in Glencoe. He was also commissioned by Writers’ Theatre to write the libretto for A Minister’s Wife, a musical adapted from Shaw’s Candida, with music by Josh Schmidt and lyrics by Jan Tranen, which then moved to the Newhouse Theatre at Lincoln Center in New York.All these works are published and have been frequently produced around the country, and in the case of Orson’s Shadow, in London, and in the case of Uncle Bob, in Paris, translated by Jean-Marie Besset

Esco Jouléy makes an unforgettable Steppenwolf debut as Eli in WINDFALL, now on stage thru May 31! 🎭❤️‍🔥

Esco won over audiences as “Sonya” in the Emmy-nominated FX series Dying For Sex, alongside Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate, and previously starred in the Sundance anthology series, State of the Union, opposite Patricia Clarkson and Brendan Gleeson. Esco recently returned to the stage for the sold-out, Off-Broadway run of Trophy Boys at MCC Theater. On stage, Esco also received rave reviews for their “magnetic” performance in New York Theater Workshop’s production of Merry Me, as well as their award-winning turn in Wolf Play.

👠 And did you catch their cameo in The Devil Wears Prada 2? We love to see it!
