Synopsis

I laughed so much with these two gentlemen, Graeme Gillis and RJ Tolan, members of the Ensemble Studio Theatre and the co-artistic directors of the EST Youngblood program. Plays by current and former Youngblood playwrights have been performed on Broadway and in London's West End (Robert Askins' TONY-nominated "Hand to God," which premiered at EST/Youngblood), at The Royal Court Theatre, Lincoln Center, Playwrights Horizons, Second Stage, Actors Theatre of Louisville, the Mark Taper Forum, the Vineyard Theater, the Atlantic Theater Company, Rattlestick Playwrights Theater and many others, including award winners such as Annie Baker's "John," "The Flick" and "The Aliens," and Amy Herzog's "4000 Miles," and have been adapted by film and television companies, including alumni Lucy Alibar's "Juicy and Delicious" which was adapted into the Cannes Caméra d'Or-winning film "Beasts of The Southern Wild." They graciously talked to me about the beginnings of the program, their involvement in EST, as well as achievements
