Adam is joined once more by Imani Congdon, a poet and playwright who has recently graduated from Denison University and whose work So Full I Could Burst is being performed there at the end of September. The two have a conversation about the way that White American theatre often tends to erase Black joy, the way that large-scale, highly tourist based theatrical institutions tend to resort to telling the same story over and over again and the importance of giving young artists the spotlight.
