Theresa Rebeck's audio play NIGHTWATCH is an imitative true-crime podcast examining the “facts” around a peculiar incident. A teenage girl witnesses a violent attack in the middle of the street. No one else seemed to see it, and the police failed to investigate. If a murder happens and only one person sees it - and that person is a teenage girl - is it real? But what if a true crime is a fake crime? What is truth and what is fake news in the world we live in? Intrepid public radio reporter Martina Diaz guides us through a maze of interviews with friends and skeptics on NIGHTWATCH. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
