On this week's SELECTED SHORTS, we're going to hear stories about students and schools that abandon the usual rules to follow their own, unusual, codes of behavior. In "Singin' in the Acid Rain," by Patricia Marx, performed by Katrina Lenk, it's recess at a post-apocalyptic school. Marx talks with Meg Wolitzer about the story and her unique brand of humor after the read. The class in “The School,” by Donald Barthelme, performed by Laura Esterman, is facing a difficult test; and young love is framed by larger issues in "Melvin in the Sixth Grade," by Dana Johnson, performed by Nikki M. James. We hear from James about this nuanced rite-of-passage story.

In this episode of 92NY Talks, join Tony Award winners Katrina Lenk, Patti LuPone and Marianne Elliott - the stars and director of the Broadway revival of Company, a musical comedy masterpiece about the search for love and connection in New York City written by Stephen Sondheim and George Furth. They sit down with Why We Theater's Ruthie Fierberg to discuss the documentary Keeping Company with Sondheim, stories of working with the musical theater legend, Company's enduring resonance, and more. The conversation was recorded on May 23, 2022 in front of a live audience at The 92nd Street Y, New York.
[REBROADCAST FROM JANUARY 21, 2022] The new Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth's 1970 Tony Award-winning musical "Company" switches the gender of many of the characters, including main character Bobbie, played by Tony Award-winner Katrina Lenk, and her best friend Jamie, now a gay man played by Matt Doyle. Lenk and Doyle join us to discuss the revival, which tells the story of a single woman turning 35, and contemplating whether it's time to get married. "Company" is nominated at the Tony Awards this Sunday for Best Revival of a Musical, Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Musical (for Matt Doyle), Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical (for Jennifer Simard and Patti Lupone), Best Scenic Design of a Musical, Best Lighting Design of a Musical, Best Sound Design of a Musical, Best Direction of a Musical, and Best Orchestrations.

Your phone may be ringing and your door chiming less often, but in comes our episode on the gender-swapped revival of Company, where you can hear us unironically judge the life choices of a woman a decade older than us. -- Christine's first introduction to Company was when Glee did "Getting Married Today", which worked surprisingly well in the show: https://youtu.be/pLRNEILRVjw For Sondheim's birthday, The New York Times put out a series of articles honoring him, including Jesse Green's tribute: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/12/theater/stephen-sondheim-playwright.html Patti LuPone is definitely making the most out of her quarantine, so check out the first of four (so far) basement videos she's posted on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PattiLuPone/status/1241891274321539072 The letters of "Company" that we mention in "Another Hundred People" can be seen on the musical's Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hIa-7H_24/ If you want a deeper dive into the Company musical itself, as well as comparisons across different versions, check out the fantastic Putting It Together podcast (where you might also hear a familiar voice): https://puttingittogether.transistor.fm/ Like West Side Story, no cast album has been announced for the Broadway cast as of yet, but you can watch a performance of "You Could Drive a Person Crazy" from BroadwayCon (https://youtu.be/e7k0qn0TBMA) as well as snippets of other songs from the show featuring Katrina Lenk, Patti LuPone, and the rest of the ensemble from the First Look Concert at the Guggenheim (https://youtu.be/mQIq6zRt8ys). All the song segments heard in the show come from the 2018 London revival cast album (featuring all different actors except for Patti LuPone).

Are you a Beth or a Marmee? Fresh off playing Hannah in Greta Gerwig’s Little Women, Anne and Damian dig into the March women with theatre stalwart, Jayne Houdyshell. You Might Know Her From: Little Women, Maid in Manhattan, The Bounty Hunter, Garden State, and the Broadway productions of The Humans, Well, King Lear, and A Doll’s House Part 2. Jayne's film career is taking off, but we cover her thirty years in regional theatre before winning a Tony Award at 62! Plus, the joys of Louisa May Alcott, recreating her role in the movie version of The Humans (hi, Amy Schumer and Beanie Feldstein!), the sexual energy of John Stamos and Gina Gershon in Bye Bye Birdie, and why strangers would chase her around Manhattan saying, "Fuck you, Nora." Shit, we loved this Kansan so much. Git into it.
