Stereophonic: A New Play by David Adjmi
Offscript, the flagship podcast of American Theatre, has transitioned to a Facebook Live format featuring discussions with editors and special guests, alongside an audio podcast. This month, the spotlight is on playwright David Adjmi, whose latest work, Stereophonic, explores the challenges faced by a 1970s rock band as they strive to complete their album. Currently receiving critical acclaim at Playwrights Horizons until December 17, Adjmi shares insights into his creative process, highlighting that this play features fully developed characters he feels deeply connected to. He also reveals plans for a cast album featuring songs by Will Butler that authentically capture the era. This conversation marks the first follow-up with Adjmi since the publication of an excerpt and review of his memoir, Lot Six. Additionally, the episode includes a discussion with Lauren Van Hemert, founder of the nonprofit online theatre magazine Beltline to Broadway, which focuses on the dynamic theatre scene in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area and its ties to New York's commercial theatre.
