AMERICAN THEATRE: GETTING TINA PACKER AND JON JORY IN THE same room for an interview is not an easy task. The two of them spend much of their time crisscrossing the country and the globe, spreading their respective gospels on Shakespeare performance and acting pedagogy. Packer and Jory may be two of the most famous (former) artistic directors in America, but neither is slowing down in the slightest.

This is an incredibly interesting interview. They touch on so many important points in their conversation that I feel are important. One of the most striking points was when they spoke about the changing nature of American theater, through the increase in new works and the decrease in classic works. Jon Jory puts it very succinctly when he says that in "its multiplicity is its excitement, so you certainly wouldn't want to make it one thing even if you had the power to do so".
