Today, I’m thrilled to announce my interview with Broadway director Trip Cullman, whose production of Martyna Majok’s Queens is currently playing at Manhattan Theater Club. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his legendary career, including reinventing I CAN GET IT FOR YOU WHOLESALE, the use of music into CULT OF LOVE and CHOIR BOY, working on UNKNOWN SOLDIER after Michael Friedman passed away, telling Joshua Harmon’s personal stories in SIGNIFICANT OTHER and WE HAD A WORLD, deciding on the set for LOBBY HERO, assisting Joe Mantello on TAKE ME OUT, bringing a sex scene to life in A SMALL FIRE, his dramaturgical concept for SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION, what he learned from Mike Nichols during THE SEAGULL, staging an intense moment in THE LONELY FEW, being the only gay person working on ANGELS IN AMERICA, why THE ROSE TATTOO was a heartbreaker, bringing THELMA AND LOUISE to the stage, working on UNKNOWN SOLDIER after Michael Friedman passed away, why he loves casting musical theater actors in plays, how COWBOY MOUTH inspired his love of directing, his long collaboration with Leslye Headland and Halley Feiffer, his upcoming work on BECKY SHAW, and so much more. Don’t miss this candid conversation with one of Broadway’s best.
