The Leonard Lopate Show | Aug 4, 2017

Tony Award-nominee and two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist Tina Howe discusses her first full-length play in almost eight years, “Singing Beach.” It tells the story of a Massachusetts-based family preparing for an approaching Category 4 hurricane, and touches on themes like climate change, aging and the power of imagination.

"Singing Beach" runs through Aug. 12 at the HERE Arts Center (145 Sixth Ave., at Dominick St.). 

Jonathan Capehart guest hosted this segment of "The Leonard Lopate Show."
