Welcome back to Before Extinction. The podcast for artists, by artists, right before the end of the world! Today "I" interview "Jonathon Nicola" about "his" experience performing in Lord of the Flies, Romeo and Juliet (a reimagining), Paradise Lost, and an absurdist comedy by John Tsakiri’s called “The lotto Line”.
