Hear from the new director of Theatre Philadelphia!
The BSR Podcast: Darnelle speaks on his path to theater, the state of new work, and lots more
This week on the BSR Podcast, host Darnelle Radford gets a taste of his own medicine as BSR editor-in-chief Alaina Johns interviews him in honor of his new role as the executive director of Theatre Philadelphia.
We cover Darnelle's path to his theater career today, how many shows he's really seeing these days, and why it's important to him. We talk about that post-show feeling, "normalizing theater" in our lives, impactful post-pandemic moments, and dig into Darnelle's thoughts on the state of new work versus well-known shows, plus lots more. We on the BSR team wish Darnelle the best as he embarks on his important new role in the Philly theater community, and we're proud to continue having his voice at BSR.
Darnelle's interviews are always evergreen: if you want to get to know Philly's working artists, check out our podcast archive. New for season 10, you can find the BSR Podcast on YouTube! Watch this episode above, listen by clicking below, or subscribe on Apple podcasts.
