Actress Katie Finneran and director Lila Neugebauer discuss their production of Edward Albee’s At Home at the Zoo: Homelife & The Zoo tale. In act one,Homelife, we see Peter and his wife Ann in their Upper East Side apartment. In the second act, or The Zoo tale,we watch Peter's life change when he meets a stranger in Central Park. With jolts of brutality and Albee’s signature dismal humor, this seminal play explores both the love and cruelty that we inflict on each other every day.
At Home at the Zoo is playing through March 25 at The Irene Diamond Stage at The Pershing Square Signature middle (480 West 42nd Street between 9th and 10thAvenues).
This segment is guest hosted by Jonathan Capehart.
