Daniel Aukin (Act I)

Jonny’s guest this week is one of the most exciting directors in the English-speaking theatre, Daniel Aukin. Fresh from his Tony award for Broadway’s hit play of 2024, Stereophonic, Jonny and Daniel settle onto a grassy knoll on a beautiful Autumn day in Prospect Park, New York, and discuss celebrity lotus positions, the complications and benefits of the family business, acting epiphanies, the influence of Richard Foreman, what a director is actually for and Sam Shepard’s love of a tightrope.
