The Dramatists Guild Presents: TALKBACK podcast will launch its fourth season with an episode spotlighting the Tony-nominated musical A Strange Loop June 6.
In the episode, Jackson and Siddiqui speak about creative inspiration, share some insights into their latest collaboration, and reflect on A Strange Loop, which leads this year's Tony nominations. The two creatives also discuss advocating for and empowering other writers as the podcast holds open conversations about diversity, equity, inclusion, and access.
Jackson, Siddiqui, and Johnson all currently serve on the Dramatists Guild Council. Broadway Podcast Network distributes The Dramatists Guild of America's podcast.
The new musical is celebrating the box office opening at the Nederlander with an offer for fans to get $20 tickets, harkening back to Rent's first-of-its-kind ticket lottery.
Laks, the League's former executive vice president and general counsel, has been serving in the role on an interim basis since the departure of Charlotte St. Martin.
The work, which made its world premiere Off-Broadway in 2022, takes place in an Iranian classroom where adult students practice for an English language proficiency exam.
