John Patrick Shanley explains how he writes plays

This winter John Patrick Shanley had three plays running simultaneously in New York; the newest, Brooklyn Laundry, is a wrenching and ecstatic 80 minute ride through attraction, grief, love, giddiness, reality check, responsibility, to adulthood. He talks to Joan Juliet Buck about life, death, the meaning of both, and invokes the possibilities of a blonde wig. Produced and edited by Matty Rosenberg and Joan Juliet Buck, co-produced by Jennifer Hammoud @ radiofreerhinecliff.org Graphics by Joseph Maresca Send comments to [email protected] or call (845) 307-7446‬
