Episode #316
A View from the Bridge

Actor Liev Schreiber and director Gregory Mosher talk about their collaboration on reviving Arthur Miller's 1955 tragedy A View from the Bridge. This production, in which Schreiber stars with Scarlett Johansson, has just opened on Broadway to great critical acclaim.

John Lahr of The New Yorker wrote, "[A View from the Bridge] deftly directed by Gregory Mosher, at the Cort, is a singular astonishment: a kind of theatrical lightning bolt that sizzles and startles at the same time, illuminating the poetry in the play's prose and the subtlety in its streamlined construction." (Uplink available February 11.)

Episode #317
Time Stands Still's Margulies and Bogosian

Playwright Donald Margulies and actor/playwright Eric Bogosian (Law & Order CI) discuss Margulies' politically-relevant, critically-acclaimed drama, Time Stands Still, in which Bogosian is appearing on Broadway with Laura Linney, Brian d'Arcy James and Alicia Silverstone. (Uplink available February 18.)

Episode #318
Playwright Douglas Carter Beane, plus AndrewAndrew "Under the Radar"

Playwright Douglas Carter Beane discusses his new comedy Mr. & Mrs. Fitch, about a husband and wife gossip column writing team. Beane also examines the mythic glamour of New York City and the lust for scandal-mongering in this country that inspired him to create this work.

Also, a report from AndrewAndrew from this year's Under the Radar festival where they talk to three of the directors whose subversive works helped make this annual event at The Public Theater so successful. (Uplink available February 25.)
