Zadie Smith (Act II)

In part two of our conversation with Zadie, Jonathan does his very best to encourage her to persevere with her second play and she explains how a thought that seems relatively tame to her in prose form has the potential to be thrillingly animated on stage. We learn which Shakespearean revivals infuriate her, how she and her husband Nick Laird can tell from the opening line of a play whether they'll be leaving at the interval or not and get a sneak preview of her new literary creation, Mrs Touché. All this and a guinea pig-related theatrical scoop. Stage Door Jonny breaks the big stories… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
