No Script: The Podcast

This week, Jackson and Jacob explore the world of Paula Vogel's play "How I Learned to Drive." Stylized and somewhat absurd, "How I Learned to Drive" is a whirlwind tour through one girl's experience of childhood sexual assault. J&J talk about Vogel's use of characters, a Greek chorus, and titles from Driver's Ed videos. They also break down the ways in which Vogel makes the play's abuser seem more and more insidious.

David Mamet's play "American Buffalo" is gritty, sharp, and oh-so-funny. Jackson and Jacob explore the humor, the language, and the changes of power in one of Mamet's most popular scripts. First produced in 1975, "American Buffalo" still feels fresh and inventive. This week's "No Script" is J&J's first episode on a Mamet script, and they tenatively wade into the wild world of Mametspeak.
