Welcome back to another episode of Playing on Air!

Playing on Air is back for a new season! We've got 5 plays for the '25 - '26 Season, 4 of which are new plays, and 3 of those new plays are commissions. Two weeks ago, we premiered "73, SK." by Else Went. Today, we drop our 2nd episode of the season, "The Corner Cafe" by Charles Mee, directed by Tom Dugdale.

"The Corner Cafe" features the largest cast ever assembled for a Playing on Air recording!

The cast includes some POA Alums and some actors making their debut with us! We are thrilled to both welcome and say "hello again" to: Vandit Bhatt, Sasha Diamond, Ethan Dubin, Peter Friedman, Elijah Jones, Francis Jue, Matthew Maher, Katie Martucci, Barrie Lobo McLain, Jo Mei, Maryann Plunkett, Jon Norman Schneider, Constance Shulman and Claire Siebers

Playing on Air is hosted by Artistic Director, Joshua Kahan Brody and Associate Artistic Director & Creative Producer, Garlia Cornelia Jones.
