Episode 27: Lineage of Craft - Maria Irene Fornes & PbtA

In this episode, Brynn and guest Dan Hurlin discuss Maria Irene Fornes' Fefu and Her Friends through the lens of Dan's experiences as assistant stage manager for the premiere of the play in 1977. We also have the opportunity to hear a chilling monologue from Part 2 of the play by returning actor Heather McConnell. If you like feminist stories (which if you listen to the podcast, duh, of course you do!) that feature ridiculously complex female characters with a healthy dash of "hallucinatory surrealism", this one's for you!
