How do we carry grief? What manifestations does grief have in our daily lives, our relationships? In his 2007 Pulitzer Prize winning script "Rabbit Hole," David Lindsay-Abaire paints a portrait of a family in grief. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob explore that portrait, looking at the ways in which Lindsay-Abaire uses things like blame and object negotiation to guide his characters through the many missteps of grief.

Years ago, Jacob discovered a copy of this play in a used bookstore. He fell in love with the script and it has claimed the top spot on his directing wish-list ever since. Now, he and Jackson dive into the rich story and beautiful language of "Galileo" by Bertolt Brecht. The play is a fictionalized account of Galileo's life, focusing especially on his conflict with the Catholic Church after he discovers that the sun does not revolve around the earth. Listen in as J&J discuss Epic theatre, science, and Brecht's poignant imagery.

For the first time on No Script, Jackson and Jacob are discussing a script they have actually acted in together - Dale Wasserman's "Man of La Mancha." Loosely based on the famous story of Don Quixote, "Man of La Mancha" follows the mad knight in his quest to vanquish evil and sway the heart of his beloved Dulcinea. Join us as J&J discuss Quixote's infectious spirit, his comic sidekick, and the plight of Aldonza.

Is there a hell? This question has inspired much debate in the Christian world. And it is at the core of Lucas Hnath's play "The Christians." Just after his newly built church building is paid off, Pastor Paul announces that he is leading the church in a new direction - they will no longer believe in hell. The play follows the aftermath of this decision. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob explore the brilliant specificity of Hnath's play.
