  • Episode 3 - Outside the Lines

    Venturing into the uncharted territory of Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival's 2025 Summer Theatre Series, “Undiscovered Countries," we examine how boundaries are tested and transcended. Hosts Jason King Jones, Kim Carson, and Connie Behringer guide you through the absurdist edge of Rosencrantz And Guildenstern Are Dead, the introspective depths of Hamlet, and a conversation with special guest Akeem Davis, director of A Raisin in the Sun.

    • Harlem | The Poetry Foundation - The title of Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin In The Sun was borrowed from Langston Hughes’s poem, “Harlem," sharing the story of the deferred dreams of the Younger family.
