Friday Phone Call # 1

Melanie Joseph of Foundry Theatre

So, if you don’t know Melanie Joseph and Foundry Theatre, you can go here for the backstory on this call. This call took place a bit over a month ago, so the sense of the Occupy movement at that time was a bit different than it is right now. But the connections to her work and that energy remain strong and relevant. It’s been a remarkable part of my work in theater to have Melanie as a friend and mentor at many different points. You’re coming into the middle of a discussion that we’ve been having for over ten years at this point and has taken us to Africa and back. I’m going to try to keep coming back to Melanie for these calls on a regular basis. Meanwhile, to know more, read into these things:
