“We are all healthier when we live in a culturally diverse world. When there are more stories that are accessible to us when every voice is part of every cultural conversation. It’s not about excluding traditional voices. It’s about expanding the range of what people know is there."

Episode 94: Gwydion Suilebhan

Folks, I am stoked about this one. Mr. Gwydion Suilebhan is a hard working man but he still finds time to be awesome at Twitter (@GwydionS) and to power through a cold to sit down and have a chat with me. Many of you will be familiar with him and his work. Gwydion is one of the founding members of the Welders, a playwright focused cooperative with a unique vision and production model (they make the organization and then they hand it over to someone else). The Welders are opening Not Enuf Lifetimes like right now at the Atlas Performing Arts Center. Gwydion speaks so highly of the show, and its author, Caleen Sinette Jennings, so please check that production out. Gwydion is also a prime mover behind the New Play Exchange, going live very soon, part of the National New Play Network and its mission to facilitate the production of new work. For this and all the other great things Gwydion is doing check out his website, especially the part where he explains how to say his last name. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it, here you go!

Gwydion Suilebhan!

Heroes.  They’re not just for comic books anymore. With the rise of more serious, “realistic” portrayals of comic book heroes has come a trend of real people making themselves into superheroes.  This is not a joke, and it’s not the movie Kick-Ass, based on the comic book of the same name.  Or James Gunn’s film, Super. This week, I spoke with playwright Gwydion Suilebhan, author of Reals, a play about four such ordinary people.  The play just finished a production with the Theatre Alliance of DC and will next be part of the new play reading series at Anthem Theatre in NYC on October 1st.  You can follow Gwydion on Twitter at @gwydions. We also have a bonus, a short piece by playwright David Lawson about the 13p Implosion Party last Monday in NYC.  It’s called “We’re Gonna Die, It’ll Be Okay.”  You can follow him on Twitter at @dtlawson.  Here’s the trailer for the Theatre Alliance production of Reals, in case you’re curious.    You can follow Theatre Alliance of DC on Twitter @ThtrAllianceDC.  And follow Anthem Theatre at @AnthemTheatre.  The music you heard in this episode of Twenty:  Batman: The Animated Series Title Theme, composed by Shirley Walker.  Spiderman by Moxy Fruvous. Wish these were available on iTunes.  Moxy Fruvous is in the Irish iTunes store, apparently…
