In this episode Amber talks with actor and playwright Heather Raffo about her process developing a new theatrical platform about migration in her play TOMORROW WILL BE SUNDAY. They talk about how Heather uses her acting tools for writing, and loves to create plays that challenge her like her "own purpose-built ferrari”; as well as the play as a body; her experience as the McKnight Resident at the Minneapolis Playwrights Center; and we ask a few key questions: Can we de-center where we think plays need to be ultimately?; How can we start a conversation with producers?
