An American master this week everyone. And a little bit of a hero of Jonny’s. Kenneth Lonergan is the writer and directors of three movies, all of them masterpieces, and the playwright of groundbreaking plays like Lobby Hero and This Is Our Youth. Hear about birthing his plays, writing as the muscle memory of the brain, why he is fascinated by the state of adolescence, which of his plays started as a dream, how he jumped from prose to playwrighting and why movies don’t quite touch the experience of a play.
