A comedy podcast that helps answer the question “what is this play about?” … Plays are meant to be seen not read, but before an audience sees a production all the artists involved need to read the text and come to a unified interpretation of it. This show examines that process – we will read plays and look at them through the lens of different text analysis techniques, talk about the potential stories that could be told using that play, and go behind the scenes of the artistic process. This podcast is for anyone who wants to know more about the important plays of our time and the analytic techniques that can be used to understand them more deeply and for anyone who loves theater and would like to know more about the artistic process.

You guys are the best!!
I have been loving to listen to your podcast with each and every new release, and just wanted to also mention that y'all are amazing!! Have a wonderful day!
Just what I needed!
This is perfect! Brilliant and talented people discussing plays. If I haven't already seen or read the play I find a copy to add to my collection. No disappointments, excellent selections to round out my education. Jennifer Sassaman is divine!

She is like a Preacher telling me what art should be. She is horrible to have on this show
