from Backstage Babble · host cbroadwaypodcast

Today, I am thrilled to announce my episode with the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Auburn, whose play Summer, 1976 is currently running at the Samuel J. Friedman Theater on Broadway. Tune in to hear some of the stories of David’s career, including the method of putting replacement casts into Proof, the play idea he abandoned about Harry Houdini, the original intention for Summer, 1976, working with John Lithgow, his research process, what it was like editing Tick…Tick…BOOM! for the stage, adapting the play The New York Idea for the modern day, his new adaptation of The Wild Duck (which is about to be read at Classic Stage Company), and more. You won’t want to miss this conversation.
