God Splat spotlight: Adam Szymkowicz

We’re thrilled to continue spotlighting the creative team for God Splat (or Love and Death in Nine Parts) by Adam Szymkowicz with the playwright himself! From Adam’s vast body of work, Flux has fully produced Pretty Theft, Hearts Like Fists, and Marian, or The True Tale of Robin Hood, and helped develop (approximately) 33 more. The questions are inspired by Adam’s beautiful play—make sure to RSVP for the 6/3 reading in NYC!

Good art.

If love is a borrowed car, what’s your love’s make and model?

It’s a Mini Convertible.

How do you keep going when the art you make goes splat?

Hope.
