Abstract
Abstract The following interview was completed by e-mail on 26 November 2015. It focuses on Christopher Shinn’s Teddy Ferrara (2015), a play both informed by and in response to a number of recent suicides, including that of Tyler Clementi. This conversation explores Shinn’s creative processes for the play, which began its theatrical life in the Goodman Theatre in Chicago before being brought to the Donmar Warehouse in London where it had its London premiere. It goes on to examine Shinn’s views about the adolescent experience, desire, and LGBTQ issues, and it suggests some avenues for more positive ways to engage in discussions despite our differences.
