Two women sit on a couch in a modern living room; one looks serious and the other looks surprised while holding a white mug.
Two women sit on a sofa, holding hands and making eye contact; one wears a red dress, the other wears a dark green top. A table with flowers and drinks is beside them.

Walking into a world premiere play can be daunting. You may have seen the show art and read a short synopsis, but many times, that’s all there is when it comes to pre-show materials. If you’re the kind of theatre-goer who likes to dig deeper, we’ve got you covered, whether you want some context before seeing the production, or you’d like to learn more about what you just saw. 

Here’s your chance to get inside the brain of Atlanta playwright Pearl Cleage as she talks to Director Susan V. Booth about writing and the creation of her new work, Angry, Raucous, and Shamelessly Gorgeous. This discussion was recorded live during a Before Play event at the Alliance Theatre on 3/26/2019.
