The Nonfiction Theatre Forum

The Nonfiction Theatre Forum brings together theatre artists, documentarians, journalists, and scholars to explore how real stories are made for the stage. Hosted by Ash Marinaccio, a theatremaker and documentarian dedicated to storytelling for systemic change, the podcast dives into the creative and ethical questions behind nonfiction performance–from documentary and autobiographical theatre to verbatim and community-based work. Produced in collaboration with HowlRound Theatre Commons and Docbloc, each episode opens up conversations about truth, representation, and the art of bringing reality to the stage.
