In this episode we talk with featured playwright, poet, and all around creative Jecenia Isis Figueroa about writing bilingually, going for raw emotion, and drawing inspiration for her intense play from the Boston Marathon bombing. Bonus: TFW you realize that you can't think of a single fictional Latino Bostonian. Not. A. Single. One.

Then we listen to her short play Dirty Laundry, in which a couple deal with the fallout of crimes committed by their son.

For more information about Jecenia, see her blog Mastering My Pieces.
