Description
Laura talks with award-winning playwright David Paquet and writer/ translator Leanna Brodie about how David’s research into his family’s past helped inspire his dark comedy, “Wildfire”. He shares how specific images and phrases help craft his unusual characters and why he feels drawn to those on the margins. Leanna Brodie opens up about her job of adapting the play for anglo audiences and why she’s tasked with translating more than just the language. They both reveal what it’s like to work as a writer today and why it's not just about making great art.
