We've got another interview today, this time with playwright Ken Preuss, rhymes with Seuss; but first, let's do some Theatrefolk News.Did you catch the latest addition of our Spotlight Newsletter? It's all about the duet. The two-hander scene, which might be a Canadian thing. I've referred to duets as two-handers in the past before and sometimes have received blank stares, like they've never heard of it before. It's a very foreign thing. I don't know, it could be because I something in my teeth. I digress. It's one person talking to another person. We look at in the newsletter from an improve perspective, an acting perspective and a writing perspective. We also got some teachers to say what their favorite two-person scenes were to use in the classroom.
