Theatre Couch Podcast heads right into the 1990’s with Anna Deavere Smith's one-woman show “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992." That year, LA riots erupted from the not-guilty verdicts of the police officers who beat Rodney King in 1991. Originally conducting hundreds of interviews with Los Angelenos impacted by the upheaval, Smith performed dozens of them, revealing a city long paralyzed by racial divisions. Nathan Inzerillo and Nikki Jacobs invite you to join them for Episode 18 where they visit the testimonials that most affected them.

Finding the cure for a disease is hard enough without the added obstacles of a timid medical community, an indifferent government and a homophobic society! Come check out EPISODE 17 of Theatre Couch Podcast where Nathan Inzerillo and Nikki Jacobs meet a young gay activist and explore the terrifying AIDS epidemic in 1980s New York. In this semi-autobiographical play by Larry Kramer, his alter ego Ned struggles against prejudice and infighting to save the gay community before it's too late.

Theatre Couch Podcast stops in the 1970’s this week with Episode 16 and Migdalia Cruz's subtly heart-wrenching drama “Miriam’s Flowers.” Set in the South Bronx in 1975, it tells the story of a Puerto Rican family who has just lost Puli, a 7-year old boy hit by a train as he attempts to retrieve his baseball. With all the pain, Cruz still manages to salvage joy through this family’s ongoing tragedy. Join Nathan Inzerillo and Nikki Jacobs as they unpack this brilliant study of grief and the human heart.

Come check out EPISODE 15 of Theatre Couch Podcast where Nikki Jacobs and Nathan Inzerillo travel to 1960s New York and see if an over-the-hill zookeeper can finally catch a break and become the Hollywood composer his mistress always knew he could be!
