247 years ago, thirteen British colonies divorced themselves from Mother England to become what now number 50 supposedly United States. While the borders are arbitrary, the political and sometimes cultural differences between states are real, to say nothing of the more nebulous ideas like a “state of mind” or a “state of being.” Madison’s Broom Street Theater – which is not now, and never has been, on Broom Street – chose this moment to riff on the state of the States, with a series of short plays entitled “Our Home States.” Joining us now by phone is Broom Street Theater Managing Director, Doug Reed. Doug, welcome back to the show. Also joining us is Broom Street Artistic Director Maria Dahlman.
