Gerry Kowarsky and guest host Mark Bretz review (1) THE WIZARD OF OZ, by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tim Rice, et al., at the Fox Theatre; (2) OLD JEWS TELLING JOKES, by Daniel Okrent & Peter Gethers, at the New Jewish Theatre; (3) BACHELORETTE, by Leslye Headland, at Slightly Askew Theatre Ensemble; (4) ONE-HOUR TWILIGHT ZONE: LIVE!, at Magic Smoking Monkey Theatre; (5) THE NERD, by Larry Shue, at Dramatic License Productions; (6) 9 TO 5, by Dolly Parton & Patricia Resnick, at Kirkwood Theatre Guild; and (7) THE HOUSE OF BLUE LEAVES, by John Guare, at the Theatre Guild of Webster Groves.

John Guare talks about his two Broadway plays of the past season: considering how the world has caught up with and changed audience responses to "The House of Blue Leaves" and which portion of the play is drawn directly from his own life, as well as the origin of "A Free Man of Color" and whether it's his practice to write plays based on ideas suggested by others. He also discusses his development as a playwright while at Georgetown University and the Yale School of Drama; why being an Aquarius was instrumental in the start of his professional career; his never-completed collaboration with Stephen Sondheim and Leonard Bernstein; how "Two Gentlemen of Verona", a musical with 37 songs, was never meant to be a musical; finding a home at The Public Theatre and his conflicted emotions about being a part of the institution at that time, where such plays as "Landscape of the Body" and "Marco Polo Sings a Solo" premiered; how place affected his writing of the "Lydie Breeze" plays and why he chose to revisit and rework them 20 years later; when he first learned of a con man pretending to be Sidney Poitier's son and when that blossomed into "Six Degrees of Separation"; the impact of his work with Signature Theatre Company in New York, including the premiere of "Lake Hollywood", which incorporated a play he'd written 39 years earlier; and why he agreed to adapt "The Front Page" and its gender-shifted remake "His Girl Friday" for the stage. Original air date - June 22, 2011.

The producing team of the 1986 Tony-nominated play "The House of Blue Leaves" - press representative Merle Debuskey, executive producer Bernard Gersten, playwright John Guare, advertising representative James Russek, and director Jerry Zaks - discuss how they came to work on this mid-1960's domestic comedy at Lincoln Center Theatre, first in the off-Broadway Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater, then transferring to the much larger Vivian Beaumont Theatre which presented its own challenges, eventually moving to the Plymouth Theatre on Broadway; the economics of producing, subscriber base, and ticket prices at a not-for-profit theater; finding key designers; casting sessions, working with strong actors, and maintaining quality performances in an extended run.
