61: "True Believer" with Asa Merritt, Joshua K. Brody and Kersti Bryan


Listen Later

It’s Ethan’s last week as hurryupandwait co-host, and we're sitting down with playwright Asa Merritt, director Joshua K. Brody and actor Kersti Bryan of  “True Believer- An Incendiary New Play.” This one-woman play about “identity, radicalism, and the undeniable passion of youth” follows a young journalist’s personal pursuit of justice and ultimate journey towards domestic terrorism. Asa, Josh and Kersti open up about staging the play, gender roles, narrative styles and what (for each of them) makes theatre, theatre. 

“True Believer” is being presented by Theater Lab on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays April 17 through May 9. Check out www.truebelievertheplay.com for more information and to purchase tickets.  Follow Asa Merritt on twitter @asamerritt, find Joshua Brody at www.joshuakbrody.com and Kersti Bryan @kerstidanger or on www.kerstibryan.com.
