His latest play Prayer for the French Republic comes to Broadway in January 2024. Joshua talks about his process, about riding out the lows, and the importance of replacing judgement with curiosity. Here's another incredible conversation about living a professional creative life.

Welcome to Roadcase!! We are thrilled to welcome The Backseat Lovers to Roadcase for this awesome interview. Joshua Harmon, Juice Welch, Jonas Swanson and KJ Ward all grew up in Utah, where they still live, and are currently on an incredible ride of popularity and creativity -- hitting the road hard with their remarkable high energy and infectious brand of Alt-Rock. These four friends are as close as any -- having met while still in High School -- and have been operating as a close-knit unit since then. The Lovers truly revere the art of live performance and have gone all the way from winning their local Battle of the Bands back in 2018 to the Lollapalooza stage in 2021!! But their story is also one of hard work and perseverance; having had their first North American tour cancelled by Covid, they hit it hard while at home and their latest release, Waiting to Spill, is a stunning collection of songs that came out of that tough period and speaks of growing up, coming into adulthood and figuring out one's place in the world. These guys are absolutely crushing it while remaining humble, sweet and true to their origins. So hop on the Roadcase bus for this fun sit-down with The Backseat Lovers. It's gonna be a great ride!!For more info:https://www.thebackseatlovers.com/For more information on Roadcase: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: info@roadcasepod.comTheme music: "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

In 1944, a Jewish couple in Paris desperately await news of their missing family. More than 70 years later, the couple's great-grandchildren find themselves facing the same question as their ancestors: "Are we safe?"Following five generations of a French Jewish family, the new play “Prayer for the French Republic” is a sweeping look at history, home, and the effects of an ancient hatred. The powerful world premiere comes from acclaimed playwright Joshua Harmon and director David Cromer. Manhattan Theatre Club's world premiere of Prayer for the French Republic opened Tuesday, February 1 at New York City Center – Stage I and is scheduled to run through March 13.Actor and director David Cromer has received a Tony Award - for direction of The Band's Visit, , Drama Desk Award, three Obie Awards, three Lucille Lortel Awards, a Joe A. Callaway Award, four Jeff Awards, and in 2010 was made a MacArthur Foundation Fellow.
Continuing our discussion about the musical The Color Purple (which is also about to become a movie musical starring Fantasia Barrino, Danielle Brooks, Colman Domingo, and Corey Hakwins), this week Ruthie recommends Joshua Harmon's new Off-Broadway play Prayer for the French Republic. The Color Purple—originally a novel by Alice Walker—was adapted into a musical and first opened on Broadway in 2005 and revived in 2015 and depicts the abusive relationship between Celie and Mister (among many other things). But is it as simple as “Mister is a bad guy?” Last week in “THE COLOR PURPLE and Generational Trauma,” we spoke about what it was like for actor Isaiah Johnson to play Mister—why he wanted to, how it was healing, and how it was challenging. Isaiah also pointed out that generational trauma is not unique to Black Americans and Prayer for the French Republic reminded me of that. Prayer takes place in 2015-2016 Paris and 1945-1946 Paris, depicting multiple generations of French Jews in the same family. Rising anti-Semitism in Paris confronts the present-day Benhamou family, stoking fear and worry, and forcing them to wonder “When do you leave? When are the signs enough to tell you to leave? And where do you go? Where is safe?” Listen to this full episode for the connections between these two theatrical pieces, the communities they portray, and why you should run to see both.

In his book The Orchard, David tries to illustrate this, using fiction to tell deep truths about the place myth can have in the modern world.- How can fiction tell truths despite it not being true by definition?- How can myths help forge our identities?- What truths did David try to tell in The Orchard?Tune in to hear a conversation on fiction and myths.References:The Orchard by David Hopen https://www.amazon.com/Orchard-Novel-David-Hopen/dp/0062974742The Client by John Grisham https://www.amazon.com/Client-Novel-John-Grisham/dp/0345531922Marvin Redpost: Why Pick on Me?

Welcome to Talking Backstage at Theater Wit, where we take a behind the scenes look at Chicago storefront theater and more specifically all things Theater Wit.

Ralph Fiennes' third film as director is The White Crow, the story of how Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev came from a peasant upbringing to be one of the greatest dancers, and how whilst on tour in Paris in 1961 he defected to the West from the Soviet Union. Critic Sarah Crompton reviews.Last week dozens of well-heeled American parents, including actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, were charged with involvement in a scheme to fabricate academic and athletic credentials to get their children into prestigious universities. And last week Joshua Harmon's play ‘Admissions' opened here. It's about a woman who, devoted to improving diversity at her elite school, finds herself somewhat challenged when her son doesn't get into Yale - but his mixed race best friend does. And this week another American play, ‘Downstate' by Bruce Norris, opens at the National Theatre. This is set in a group home where four men, convicted of sex crimes against children and tagged, live. A man comes to confront his abuser, but our sympathies are not only with him. With Samira Ahmed the two playwrights discuss how and why, far from being escapist, the theatre is where contentious issues are imaginatively examined today.

The gang discusses ideological and biological diversity, the casting process, Joshua Harmon's "Bad Jews", and the regional premier of "American Idiot" by SRO-Productions.
The young playwright Joshua Harmon made a splash with his comedy “Bad Jews” in 2012, which was initially presented at the Roundabout Theatre Company’s black-box theater and was later produced at its larger Laura Pels Theatre. The play not only got great reviews, it also received productions at numerous regional theaters around the country. Now Roundabout is mounting another Harmon play, “Significant Other,” a romantic comedy about a gay man in his 20s watching his female friends pair up around him as he remains single and a little lonely. It stars Gideon Glick and is directed by Trip Cullman. New York Times theater critic Charles Isherwood explains why Harmon’s new work is good summer entertainment.
