Salomé!

Usually, the podcast is a chance to catch up with interesting people and learn about their stories. This time up, we are catching up with interesting people on a production! #NotAReview. Salomé adapted from Oscar Wilde's play by Yael Farber and directed by Farber as well, is playing from now through November 8 at the Shakespeare Theatre Company's Lansburgh Theatre. It's a rich show with lots and lots to talk about and when I set the call out on Twitter, I managed to get two fascinating people into STC's conference room (thanks Michael Kahn!) to talk about the show. I was joined by Hannah Hessel-Ratner, STC's Audience Enrichment Manager, freelance dramaturg, and artistic enabler and by Rob Montenegro, writer, playwright, dramaturg and house manager at STC. It was a blast to record this one, to really dig into a fascinating production. I hope I get to do more of these deep dives as the show goes on (recommendations welcome!).
