Show Notes

In this episode, we hear from the co-creators of “Temping” by the theater collective Wolf 359. The show, a theater for one production that takes people through a unique experience with no actors—puts audience members in the role of a temp, filling in for Sarah Jane Tully, a 53-year-old actuary who is taking her first vacation in years. Director Michael Rau and technical designer Asa Wember talk about their collaboration with playwright Michael Yates Crowley, how the Wolf 359 collective came to be, and why they believe so strongly in the exploration of everyday technology’s impact on our lives. “Temping” runs June 15-July 3, 2021 in partnership with the Ann Arbor District Library.
