Playwright Matthew Gasda sits down with Bridget to discuss his career and plays that explore the generational differences exacerbated by the internet. They cover the impact of smartphones and social media on young people, 2012 as a pivotal year, his experiences as a tutor, the declining writing skills among his students, his journey to becoming a playwright, move to New York City, and breakthrough in theater. They also talk about the current state of art, the challenges of surviving as an artist without institutional backing, the importance of authentic dialogue in plays, the potential of local theater, and his success in building a platform for his work in Brooklyn.

She doesn’t conduct interviews-she has conversations. Conversations with real people about the real struggle and will remind you that we can laugh in pain and cry in joy but there’s no greater mistake than hiding from it all.
