Director Leslie Stamoolis and three cast members (Sydney Lai, Alex Smith, and Jordan Salazar) join Henry McNulty in the studio to discuss Gonzaga University's one-of-a-kind I Wish Ma Could Vote: An Evening of Women's Suffrage Plays. We talk about how this unusual production came to be, what it says about our nation's past and present, and Sydney refuses to elaborate about the mouse. Listen here for the full interview.
