John Douglas Thompson (Act II)

The second half of Jonny’s chat with the revered John Douglas Thompson covers their mutual love for the director Arin Arbus, giving up the use of his eyes to do Beckett with an actor John describes as like being onstage with “ a dog, a baby and a genius”, what Eugene O’Neil’s characters say to each other when John engages them in conversation, what pisses him off about the theatre, what is was like to do “the worst Hamlet in America” and some ideas for a John and Jonny collaboration.
