In this episode, Sarah Slight - Artistic Director of Raven Theatre (home of Talk Hard Chicago & 13 Suits) - unpacks her purpose, both personally, and as it pertains to the company. She shares about dramaturgy, motherhood, and purpose and how they all feed into creating a (mostly) balanced life.

Apologies for some audio difficulties in this episode, but the conversation was too good to keep from you.

Dramaturgy Definition: Dramaturgs are experts in the study of plays, musicals, or operas. It is their job to provide the cast and crew with vital knowledge, research, and interpretation about the theatrical work in question so that they are—in turn—better equipped to do their jobs.
