This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob discuss a play which has been called a combination of "Death of a Salesman" and "Our Town."

Her play "The Best We Could" explores some of the same themes and structure as Arthur Miller's classic, while taking place in a highly contemporary world. Listen in.

In this episode of No Script, we dive into the fascinating world of "Merrily We Roll Along" — Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s bold musical that turns the traditional Broadway story backward. Based on the 1934 play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, the show traces the lives of three friends over two decades, but with a twist: it starts at the end and moves in reverse. We explore this reverse chronological structure, the repeated and transformed refrains, and how these three friends' relationship evolves (and devolves) over time.
Whether you love Sondheim, innovative storytelling, or musical theatre’s ability to explore life’s big questions, this episode offers insight into a bold, big musical that asks: What happens when we look back at our choices — and the friends we were once closest to?

In the final episode of the season, No Script turns its attention to one of Broadway’s sharpest, wittiest, and most unsettling musical comedies: How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.
Based on Shepherd Mead’s satirical guidebook, How to Succeed skewers mid-century corporate culture while exposing timeless truths about ambition, power, masculinity, and conformity. Jacob and Jackson unpack how the musical’s bright score and buoyant humor mask a biting critique of the American workplace — and the myth of meritocracy itself.

This week on No Script, Jacob sits down with singer-songwriter, composer, and emerging theatre-maker Grace Yurchuk for a rich conversation about Julius Caesar. They, of course, discuss the power of rhetoric in Shakespeare’s original political thriller and how Grace’s bold musical adaptation takes on that challenge.
Together, Jacob and Grace unpack what makes Julius Caesar such a gripping and surprisingly contemporary play: its uneasy relationship with power, the psychology of persuasion, the danger of rhetoric, and the shifting loyalties that drive the story toward tragedy. Grace shares her process of transforming a Roman tragedy into modern musical language.
Whether you’re a Shakespeare lover, a musical theatre fan, or an artist fascinated by adaptation, this episode offers a vibrant look at how old stories become new again — and how young theatre-makers like Grace Yurchuk are reshaping the classical canon with fresh perspectives and fearless creativity.
Tune in for a conversation full of insight, artistry, and the thrill of reinventing Shakespeare.

This week on No Script: The Podcast, Jackson and Jacob dive into Tina Howe’s lyrical memory play Pride’s Crossing — winner of the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best American Play and a finalist for the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
The play centers on 90-year-old Mabel Tidings Bigelow, once the first woman to swim the English Channel from England to France. From her croquet party in Pride’s Crossing, Massachusetts, time flows backward and forward as Mabel revisits a lifetime of opportunity seized and missed. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob unpack Howe’s impressionistic structure, the challenges of staging Mabel at multiple ages, and the opportunities this script offers directors, actors, and teachers—especially those interested in complex female protagonists, non-linear storytelling, and intimate ensemble work in a “big” memory play. They’ll also touch on where Pride’s Crossing sits alongside Howe’s other major works, like Painting Churches and Coastal Disturbances, in the landscape of contemporary American drama.

She imagines Hero, an enslaved man who is asked to follow his white captor into battle - fighting on the side of the rebel South. If he chooses to go, Hero will have to leave behind his beloved adoptive father and his long term romantic partner. Parks' three part telling of Hero's journey is an incredible feat of playwriting.

Nowadays, if you say "Lin-Manuel Miranda" in any public space, people will start gushing about the hit musical Hamilton. But before Hamilton was the culturally ubiquitous icon that it is, Miranda was well known for another genre-busting musical called In the Heights. Soon to be a major motion picture, In the Heights is an incredible portrait of the Washington Heights neighborhood. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob discuss this fantastic and moving example of Miranda's skill.

For a long time, Jackson and Jacob have been planning to talk about Fairview by Jackie Sibblies Drury as the first episode of Season Five. In the wake of the murder of George Floyd, America is finally facing a racial reckoning which makes the discussion of plays like Fairview all the more important.
... But, it is not lost on the boys of No Script that their perspective as two white men is a limited one. In this special episode, Jackson and Jacob have cut their typical hour long conversation into a half hour segment. As a No Script listener, you are strongly encouraged to use the remaining time to listen to or read an additional perspective on the play.
For your convenience, we have collected three stellar pieces that you can encounter.
1) An interview of Fairview actor Heather Alicia Simms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsBJ3osAuN4
2) An interview with playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury: https://www.pbs.org/video/jackie-sibblies-drury-discusses-her-play-fairview-j1ywq0/
3) Theatre critics Jesse Green and Salamishah Tillet discussing their experience of Fairview: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/07/theater/fairview-ending-debate.html

Confusing, menacing... funny? "The Birthday Party" by Harold Pinter is awash in contradictions. Pinter secured his place in history as one of the great playwrights of all time with his incredible body of work. "The Birthday Party" has remained as one of his finest pieces. Though he quibbles with the category, "The Birthday Party" is often considered the primary example of a comedy of menace. Listen in this week as Jackson and Jacob take on their first Pinter!
We are nearing the end of Season 4! After this episode, there will be two more episodes released to round out the season, and then we will be on a short break. Season 5 will begin sometime mid-summer.

This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob return to playwright Rajiv Joseph. His play "Guards at the Taj," reminiscent of "Waiting for Godot" or "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead," follows two low-level imperial soldiers assigned to guard the newly completed Taj Mahal. Playing on the ancient myth about the Taj Mahal's construction, Joseph imagines these guards have to severe the hands of all 20,000 artisans who labored to build the Taj Mahal so that it can remain the most beautiful thing ever created. What happens to their friendship and their individual psyches in the wake of this traumatic event? How are beauty and power interrelated?

Known for wild comedies, Neil Simon is one of the all-time greats in American theatre. His play "Lost in Yonkers" breaks his mold of near-farcical plays, instead edging closer to the standard psychological drama of the time. In this episode of No Script, Jackson and Jacob piece apart Simon's family story - especially the worldview of "Grandma."

This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob take on the highly fictionalized account of Salieri's jealousy . . . and his war against God. Listen in!

Beautiful. Simple. Theatrical. Thorton Wilder's "Our Town" is a carefully crafted answer to what Wilder saw as theatre's increasing dependence on spectacle. This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob stroll through Grover's Corners, walking alongside Wilder's characters in their growing up and their marrying and their living and their dying.

In the final episode of Season 2, Jackson and Jacob discuss Sarah Ruhl's retelling of a classic myth. Her play "Eurydice" departs in many respects from the traditional story of "Orpheus and Eurydice." Instead of focusing on the romance, Ruhl tells us of Eurydice's journey rekindling a relationship with her father in the Underworld.
After this episode, "No Script" will be on a short break. Season Three will begin the first week of July. See you then!

The title is shocking. The characters wild and unpredictable. But Stephen Adly Guirgis' play "The Motherf*cker with the Hat" is something like . . . a romantic comedy? This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob discuss this foulmouthed play and all its tender, hilarious genius.

The plot? It seems simple enough. Two couples meet to discuss the fight between their children. But what occurs over the course of this sharp play is anything but simple. Yasmina Reza's "God of Carnage" asks questions about the masks we wear and the loyalties we keep . . . or pretend to keep. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob weave through the complicated shifting alliances and power dynamics of this brilliant script.

This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob discuss one of theatre's classic comedies - "The Importance of Being Earnest." This 1895 play by Oscar Wilde has earned a place as one of the most produced plays in the English language. But is it still funny? Listen in to hear what J&J think.

Early in their college years, Jackson and Jacob produced a lovely 10-minute play by Jeffrey Sweet called "Cover." Now, years later, J&J return to Jeffrey Sweet for this new episode of No Script. Sweet's play "Bluff" is funny, gripping, and intensely theatrical. It's a simple story told brilliantly. Listen in!

How do we carry grief? What manifestations does grief have in our daily lives, our relationships? In his 2007 Pulitzer Prize winning script "Rabbit Hole," David Lindsay-Abaire paints a portrait of a family in grief. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob explore that portrait, looking at the ways in which Lindsay-Abaire uses things like blame and object negotiation to guide his characters through the many missteps of grief.

Years ago, Jacob discovered a copy of this play in a used bookstore. He fell in love with the script and it has claimed the top spot on his directing wish-list ever since. Now, he and Jackson dive into the rich story and beautiful language of "Galileo" by Bertolt Brecht. The play is a fictionalized account of Galileo's life, focusing especially on his conflict with the Catholic Church after he discovers that the sun does not revolve around the earth. Listen in as J&J discuss Epic theatre, science, and Brecht's poignant imagery.

Years ago, Jacob discovered a copy of this play in a used bookstore. He fell in love with the script and it has claimed the top spot on his directing wish-list ever since. Now, he and Jackson dive into the rich story and beautiful language of "Galileo" by Bertolt Brecht. The play is a fictionalized account of Galileo's life, focusing especially on his conflict with the Catholic Church after he discovers that the sun does not revolve around the earth. Listen in as J&J discuss Epic theatre, science, and Brecht's poignant imagery.

In the aftermath of the 1989 Romanian Revolution, Caryl Churchill conducted interviews with witnesses and survivors. That material was developed into her much loved script "Mad Forest." Fascinating imagery defines the play, and Churchill's characters are empathetic and human. This week on "No Script," Jackson and Jacob dive into this complex and rich piece of dramatic literature.

One of America's defining male playwrights is David Rabe. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob take on his chaotic, foul look at 1980s Hollywood - "Hurlyburly." The play is the story of the friendship between a group of young Hollywood professionals. The core of this friendship seems to be cocaine, womanizing, alcohol, and parties. Listen in as J&J dig to find the nugget of gold in Rabe's sweeping play.
Content Warning: This play/conversation contains foul language and depictions of drug use and sexual violence.

Christopher Durang's "Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike" is a delightful, character-driven comedy. It won the 2013 Tony Award for Best Play and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play. The script follows three adult siblings as they confront an ever changing world. This week on No Script, listen in as Jackson and Jacob talk Chekhov, technology, and - yes - voodoo.

"The Laramie Project" is a fanscinating play about a tragic subject - the torture and murder of University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard. After the murder (and subsequent trial of the attackers) Moises Kaufman takes members of the Tectonic Theater Project to Laramie, Wyoming to interview community members. Their journey is what makes up the play. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob parse the pages of this staged documentary for the incredible treasures of storytelling Kaufman has masterfully woven in.

CONTENT WARNING: This play/episode contains serious and lengthy discussions about mental illness and suicide.
Marsha Norman's "'night, Mother" may be one of the darkest plays discussed on "No Script" thus far. It follows the story of Jessie and her mother Thelma. They live together in a country home. One seemingly normal evening, Jessie tells Thelma that she plans to kill herself. What follows is a harrowing, gripping theatrical experience. Listen in as Jackson and Jacob try to make sense of this American tragedy.

Amy Herzog's script 4000 Miles was a finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Leo has just biked across the continental United States, and experienced a life-altering tragedy along the way. His grandmother Vera lives alone in New York, and is incredibly isolated. Herzog crams these two strong-willed people together inside Vera's apartment, and what follows is a beautiful character study. Join us this week as Jackson and Jacob try to untangle the complicated lives of Leo and Vera.

In the 2018 Tony Awards, "The Band's Visit" cleaned up. Nominated for 11 awards, it went on to win 10 of them. If you've read the script and listened to the soundtrack, it is easy to see why. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob talk about this beautiful script which self-proclaims as "not very important." Its simple stories and gorgeous, dream-like music create an enriching and inspiring experience. Join us in our conversation!

Is listening to "No Script" your Monday "Traaaaaadition"? If not, this is a good Monday to cement that weekly pattern. Jackson and Jacob talk about one of the defining plays in musical theatre - Fiddler on the Roof. Revivals of this charming script continue to pop up, and it's a pretty good guess that someone (maybe a high school, maybe a community theatre) is producing Fiddler within 50 miles of you. It's popular; it's wonderful. On this week's episode, J&J talk about Russian history, prayer, and, of course, tradition.

He's young, scrappy, and hungry. He's Alexander Hamilton, and he's the subject of the smash-hit "Hamilton" by Lin-Manuel Miranda. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob begin their venture into a 4-week series on musicals called Musical Month. Both J&J love Hamilton, and this week's conversation tends towards an hour of fan-boying. Hope you'll join us in this celebration of American history!

It's time for a little laughter, don't you think? This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob take on a hilarous two-hander by David Ives: "Venus in Fur." When a nervous new playwright/director holds auditons for the part of the leading lady, a wacky young actress shows up to claim the part. What happens next... comedy. Pure and simple. Join us as J&J talk about Greek mythology, classic literary metaphors, and, yes, sex.

This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob discuss a play by one of the titans of contemporary drama: Tom Stoppard's "The Real Thing." This is the first Stoppard play to be featured on No Script, and likely the first of many. "The Real Thing" is a love story, first and foremost, but a delightfully complex one. Listen in as J&J try to untangle its knots. They talk about infidelity, art, and Stoppard's sharp wit.

"Topdog/Underdog" is Suzan-Lori Parks Pulitzer Prize winning play (2002). It tells the story of Lincoln and Booth, a pair of brothers whose names darkly forshadow the direction of their relationship. Join us this week as Jackson and Jacob unpack this gritty, hilarious play. They discuss three-card monte, sibling relationships, and destiny.

"The Clean House" is one of Sarah Ruhl's most popular plays. The script follows several stories: Lane is a doctor who discovers her husband is cheating on her; Matilde is a cleaning woman who would rather be a comedian; Ana is a free-spirited woman who is dying of cancer; Virginia is Lane's sister, and desperate for a change in her mundane life. The script has never been one of Jacob's favorites, but maybe Jackson can sway him! Listen in as J&J talk about Ruhl's use of unusual structuring and hilarious imagery.

Rajiv Joseph's play "Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo" is a compelling, gritty look at the U.S. invasion of Iraq. The play is set in 2003, and follows the lives of two U.S. soliders and an Iraqi translator in Baghdad. Oh, and there's a dead tiger ghost too. Join us as Jackson and Jacob try to make sense of this chaotic, violent, wierd play. They discuss PTSD, theology, and beauty in the midst of rubble.

Doubt or certainty? Which is the basis of faith? John Patrick Shanley's parable play "Doubt" explores this question in a gripping, explosive mystery. This is the first episode about a play Jacob has actually done. (Jackson's first was "Oedipus Rex.") The plot follows the head of a Catholic school - Sister Aloysius. She becomes convinced that the school's pastor, Father Flynn, is abusing one of the young boys. Her campaign against him is subject to scrutiny by the audience, who never learn if Sister Aloysius's accusation is true or not. Join us as J&J pick apart the intricacies of plot and motivation in this amazing play.

This week, Jackson and Jacob explore the world of Paula Vogel's play "How I Learned to Drive." Stylized and somewhat absurd, "How I Learned to Drive" is a whirlwind tour through one girl's experience of childhood sexual assault. J&J talk about Vogel's use of characters, a Greek chorus, and titles from Driver's Ed videos. They also break down the ways in which Vogel makes the play's abuser seem more and more insidious.
CONTENT WARNING: This play and conversation contain content that might be upsetting to some listeners. Discussions include rape, pedophelia, sexual assult, violence against women, etc.

David Mamet's play "American Buffalo" is gritty, sharp, and oh-so-funny. Jackson and Jacob explore the humor, the language, and the changes of power in one of Mamet's most popular scripts.

This week's "No Script" is J&J's first episode on a Mamet script, and they tenatively wade into the wild world of Mametspeak.

Thanks so much for listening! We’ll see you next week.
In this episode of "No Script," Jackson and Jacob dive into Rebecca Gilman's play "Boy Gets Girl." Though it was originally produced in the year 2000, the themes and conversations contained in this script feel especially relevant in our #MeToo world. Listen in as J&J grapple with dating, sexual harrasment, and gender violence.
"Boy Gets Girl" was originally produced at the Goodman Theatre, and was nominated for the Outer Critics Circle Award and the Olivier Award.
CONTENT WARNING: This play and conversation contain content that might be upsetting to some listeners. Discussions include rape, stalking, violence against women, etc.
We had so much fun talking about this play, and we’d love to keep the conversation going! What were some of your thoughts if you’ve read or have seen the play? What are you favorite themes?

This week Jackson and Jacob dive into a real treasure of dramatic literature. "Wit" by Magaret Edson is the 1999 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Edson's first play (seriously) is the tender, poetic, and philosophically complex tale of Vivian Bearing, an English professor who is being treated for late-stage ovarian cancer. Listen in as J&J discuss metaphysical poetry, the afterlife, and the noble profession of nursing.

This week, in honor of huge blockbuster movies coming out (go see Avengers, seriously... it's a must) Jackson and Jacob are discussing the 2014 Pulitzer Prize winning play “The Flick” written by Annie Baker. This very relational play gets the guys asking all sorts of questions about work relationships, romantic involvement, and there’s even some brief zodiac thrown in there for good measure.

In their first ever episode, Jackson and Jacob discuss the 2017 Pulitzer Prize winning play “Sweat” written by Lynn Nottage. It is a gritty, compelling, and heartbreaking play about the American attitude toward class and how friendships can be strained and even broken as the result of individuals pursuit of different goals.
