THEATER TALK, winner of the 2017 Emmy Award for Best Interview/Discussion Show in the NYC area, delves into the immersive new musical KPOP, set in a Korean pop music factory.

KPOP co-conceiver and librettist Jason Kim, director Teddy Bergman of Woodshed Collective, and Ars NOVA Artistic Director Jason Eagan discuss collaborating on this unique production currently at A.R.T./New York Theatres, and how it explores celebrity, identity, and the worldwide phenomenon of K-pop music. Theater critic Elisabeth Vincentelli is guest co-host, joining series host and executive producer Susan Haskins-Doloff.

Next, the episode continues the previous week's conversation previewing the Fall 2017 theater season with Michael Musto, Patrick Pacheco, Vincentelli, and guest co-host Jesse Green. They discuss John Leguizamo's Latin History For Morons, Time and the Conways, Torch Song, The Wolves, Oedipus el Rey and more.
