Please Explain Toronto To Me

Episode 32 - Kenneth T. Williams


Listen Later

Kenneth T. Williams saw the realities of a broken system first-hand. He is a playwright whose new play, In Care, deals with a mother trying to get her children out of foster care and finding herself trapped within that system. We talk about Child & Family Services, his career as a journalist, the origins of the domesticated hamster, his breakthrough with the play Thunderstick, and the craft of writing (or what Williams considers to be "professional daydreaming"). And then he brings in a ringer (Krystle Pederson) to duet with him.  In care runs October 20th-30th at 7 PM at GTNT.  In Care: http://www.gtnt.ca/our-season/
