Summary

Carole Rothman discusses her career with Newsday critic Linda Winer. Co-founder and artistic director of Second Stage Theatre, Rothman remembers some of her favorite productions, including Cheryl West's Jar the floor, Charles Fuller's A soldier's play and the New York premiere of Stephen Sondheim's early musical Saturday night. She also comments on the transfer to Broadway of such original Second Stage productions as The little dog laughed and The 25th annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. She discusses her theater's evolving artistic mission, and its capabilities as an Off-Broadway theater located in the Broadway theatre district. Rothman, who went from being an actor to a director to a producer, believes that it is easier for women directors to find work in the theater today than it was in 1979 when she co-founded her theater with Robyn Goodman.
