Michael J. Murphy: Men On The Wall

Presented by Archie

The podcasters dip into one of Michael J. Murphy’s plays, Men On The Wall with actor Mary Lindsay, as well as hearing from local historian Kevin Murphy about the sometimes contentious subjects he wrote about, and the reaction when they were performed. The podcasters discuss the language and imagery of the work, and whether or not it’s relevant today.
