BSR_S03E14 - Emily Acker's "Boycott Esther"

On today’s podcast, playwright Emily Acker,  who you may know as a founding member of Orbiter3, talks about Azuka Theatre’s world premiere of “Boycott Esther”, an urgent response to the #metoo movement. We discuss the pros and cons of social media,  and conversations that shaped the piece. Here’s my conversation with Emily Acker. 

ABOUT BOYCOTT ESTHER

In an urgent response to the #metoo movement, Emily Acker's Boycott Esther chronicles the aftermath of a young woman's career once her boss, a Hollywood mogul, becomes enmeshed in a workplace sexual misconduct scandal. In a world where information is spread and opinions are formed in the click of a mouse, this hilarious drama begs the pressing question, what is our collective capacity for forgiveness?

Azuka Theatre’s Production is a Pay What You Decide.
