Lisa Kron Appears On The Season One Finale Of THESIS ON JOAN

THESIS ON JOAN, a LGBTQ+ theatre podcast produced by the Broadway Podcast Network (BPN), with hosts Holly Sansom (they/them) and Meghan Dixon (she/her) releases the final episode of season one today, featuring an interview with Tony Award-Winning writer Lisa Kron. The first episode premiered on June 24th, 2020 with Ianne Fields Stewart, a Black, queer, lesbian, and nonbinary transfeminine New York-based storyteller and founder of The Okra Project, with additional episodes releasing every other Wednesday at BPN.FM/ThesisOnJoan and wherever you listen to podcasts. Season Two of THESIS ON JOAN coming in Spring 2021.

The exclusive Lisa Kron interview includes stories from WOW Café, Kron's time with the Five Lesbian Brothers, snippets from Kron's childhood diary, and stories from the writing of Fun Home. Kron reflects on the intersection of art and activism and her family history in light of today's political climate and provides some pre-election insight that's still prescient to our presidential transition time. THESIS ON JOAN ends the season with the reminder, as Kron says, of "our power to create the future."
