Jesse Green

Today, I am so thrilled to announce my episode with one of the theater’s most influential minds, the New York Times’s chief theater critic Jesse Green. Tune in today for an in-depth interview as Jesse discusses his varied career. Highlights include: working with Hal Prince on A Doll’s Life, why he decided to stop working on Broadway, his view of the role of a critic, covering the “Tear Beat,” the off-Broadway show this season he has been looking forward to, being begged by John Kander not to become a critic, the play he regrets reviewing, the exciting profile that fell apart, his hopes for the future of Broadway, his rule for standing ovations, his three-laugh-a-page rule for Shy, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this fascinating conversation. Note: This interview was recorded in February 2023.
