Thom Dunn is a Boston-based writer, musician, and utterly terrible dancer. He is the singer/guitarist for the indie rock/power-pop the Roland High Life, as well as a staff writer for the New York Times’ Wirecutter and a regular contributor at BoingBoing.net. Thom enjoys Oxford commas, metaphysics, and romantic clichés (especially when they involve whiskey), and he firmly believes that Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" is the single greatest atrocity committed against mankind. He is a graduate of Clarion Writer's Workshop at UCSD ('13) & Emerson College ('08).

A Raisin In The Sun Preview

I spoke with a few of the cast members of A Raisin In The Sun about their experience working with director Liesl Tommy and what it's like trying to find a fresh and relevant take on such a well-known classic. Fortunately for me, they had a lot of good things to say: 

A RAISIN IN THE SUN cast members Keona Welch, LeRoy McClain, Kimberly Scott, and Ashely Everage discuss the Huntington's upcoming production and the experience of working with director Liesl Tommy to find a fresh new take on this powerful American classic.

Previews start this Friday, March 8 at the Avenue of the Arts / BU Theatre (plus we've got a cool little pre-show party with cheap tickets that night if you're interested)

(also? One of the actresses was totally in Batman Forever! Also The Abyss. But more importantly Batman Forever!)
