Tonight on the Livestream: The Olivier (and More) Award winning Author of The Inheritance, Matthew Lopez
Let’s just cut straight to it:
My guest on tonight’s livestream wrote a play called “The best American play of the century.”
That’s right, Matthew sat down to write “The Great American Play,” and actually did it.
If that isn’t enough to get you to tune in, well, I don’t know what else I can say.
Except that The Inheritance won the Olivier Award, the Drama Desk, Evening Standard, Outer Critics and just about every other award out there for plays. Except for The Tony, that is . . . and that’s only because the Tonys never happened! (But they will soon enough and guess who is a favorite?)
Tonight we’re going to find out how this rollercoaster of a year has affected Matthew Lopez, what he’s working on next, and what advice he has to emerging writers who have ideas for 8-hour, 2-part dramas.
You can watch TONIGHT, Tuesday, September 14th at 8 PM ET on my Facebook, on my Twitter, or on Broadway Podcast Network’s Youtube Channel.
