Once Peter recovered from learning that Kate Shindle’s apartment in Queens has a garage, he was able to fully participate in the conversation with our guest, the president of Actors’ Equity and an actor herself (perhaps you saw her in the “Fun Home” tour company, among other shows).

Founded in 1913, Actors’ Equity represents more than 51,000 theater actors and stage managers. Obviously, this means that this union has played a particularly big and visible role these past two years. We talked about what’s happening with Equity these days.

As you listen, you can read Peter’s review of the touring version of “Fun Home.” Also of interest in view of recent political developments is his essay about art and life.

Thanks to Christian Huygen for our theme music.
