The Leonard Lopate Show: The New York Premiere of a 1905 Comedy

The New York Premiere of a 1905 Comedy

St. John Hankin has been called "one of the great might-have-beens of the British theatre." He wrote five full-length plays between 1903 and his death by suicide at the age of 40 in 1909. Now his 1905 comedy The Return of the Prodigal is a hit at the Mint Theatre Company. Leonard talks to actor Roderick Hill and the Mint Theatre’s artistic director Jonathan Bank.

Guests:

Jonathan Bank and Roderick Hill
