Real People/Fake Stories 04/28/2022

Real People/Fake Stories Today we are joined by author LA Fields to discuss how she puts real people from history into her fictionalized books.

Adapt and Art 03/24/2022

We cover what it means to adapt a story into a play, how you take a story that is both so much your own but also literally someone else's and do both artists justice, and how one tells a story as a writer, playwright, director, and actor. This episode covers identity (non-binary and otherwise), sci-fi, the struggle to create, and even the financial industry. You can catch "Machine Yourself" April 2 at 2:00 and 5:00 pm online at wyattscott.org and in person at the Barber Shop Theater in Nashville, TN. All tickets are donation-based and proceeds go to Appalachian OUTreach, a non-profit that helps LGBTQ+ youth in East Tennessee. /episode/index/show/intotheabiscuit/id/22551971
