The Sweet Madness PodcastThe Play's the Thing: The Important Role Community Plays in Theatre, Writing, and in Life (ft. Dany Stravino and Peter M. Carrozzo from Random Thursdays Radio Theatre)What’s more important than a sense of belonging? What’s more important than community? We can think of a few things, but this world survives on community.
In this episode, Amanda speaks with 2 of the founders of Random Thursdays Radio Theatre - Actor/Director/Playwright Dany Stravino and Playwright Peter M. Carrozzo.
Dany and Peter speak of their writing practices and the very thing that keeps the theatre alive: community. Without it, where would they be?
Hear how they created something different than their usual theatre experience and what kept them going in time...
