Scott Morfee of Barrow Street Theatre on Our Town

31st December 2009

 

NEW YORK SPECIAL

Scott Morfee, Artistic Director of Off-Broadway’s Barrow Street Theatre, talks to Philip Fisher about his latest long-running hit, Thornton Wilder’s Our Town, running a theatre during the recession and his Chicago connections, including Tracy Letts and David Cromer.

About 65 percent of our audience is actually from the metro New York area and so we don’t rely as heavily on tourists as Broadway does.
