As part of his ongoing series, playwright Adam Szymkowicz interviewed me recently about playwriting, theater, and my childhood. Adam was also kind enough to let me get a little loose with his questions, allowing my 6 year-old nephew, Brody, to ask me a few questions as well.
Also-- I let my Mom answer one of the questions, because she had a better answer than me.
You can read the entirety of Adam's interview of me HERE.
Thank you to Adam for reaching out, and to Brody for his fun additions to the project. Thanks also to my sister Wendy, for helping me out with Brody's questions. And to my Mom.
Much love,
ROMERO
