David Neumann’s work “feels genuinely important, both to the form and to minds of those who see it.” —Time Out New York
"Richly entertaining…a talented satirist”—Publishers Weekly on Person Place Thing host Randy Cohen
At this live recording of public radio program Person Place Thing, humorist and Emmy Award-winner Randy Cohen chats with choreographer and BAC Artist alum David Neumann, recent Tony Award nominee for his choreography of Hadestown. Person Place Thing is an interview show that draws surprising stories from great speakers, based on the belief that people are most engaging when they speak not about themselves, but about something they care about. Guests talk about one person, one place, and one thing that are important to them.
The evening will include live music by Big Mamou Band.
