In this special episode we're sharing the premiere episode of a new podcast called 'Infinity Goes Up On Trial' hosted by Erin Callahan. It's monthly show with discussions about the ideas and emotions in Dylan's work, with artists, activists, educators, and more.
SHOW NOTES
The emotions and ideas in Bob Dylan’s work have an expansive reach that extends beyond his fan base. We see threads of these in myriad aspects of our lives. In this episode, Jason Nodler, Founding Artistic Director of The Catastrophic Theatre, discusses how Dylan’s focus on feeling has influenced his approach to writing and directing. He also shares the values he learned from Dylan’s work and how they’ve influenced him throughout his life.
Jason has directed more than 50 productions in Houston, Austin, Atlanta, Providence, Pittsburgh, and New York. His original plays include Bluefinger: The Fall and Rise of Herman Brood, Life is Happy and Sad, Speeding Motorcycle, Meatbar, King Ubu is King, and In the Under Thunderloo. He was recently awarded the Best Director Award for 4:48 Psychosis by The Houston Press, is a NEA/MacDowell Colony fellow, a four-time MAP Fund grantee, and a recipient of an individual artist grant from Creative Capital. He is currently co-directing Sarah Kane’s Cleansed.
