Patrick Flynn interviewed me for his podcast, “The Original Cast.” We discussed William Finn and James Lapine’s A New Brain and the personal significance that cast recording had for me in the wake of my father’s passing in 2016. If you’re a big William Finn fan, or if you’ve ever experienced a really lousy day in the universe, I hope you’ll enjoy our conversation.

Featured recordings: A New Brain - Original Cast Recording (1998) • Infinite Joy: The Songs of William Finn - Live at Joe's Pub (2001) • A New Brain - 2015 New York Cast Recording (2016)
