Episode 169: Jon Tracy - a podcast by The Yay w Norman Gee & Reg Clay

Norman and I welcome Jon Tracy, the artistic facilitator of Theatref1rst. Jon talks about the philosophy of being a facilitator instead of an artistic director and the dangers of not acknowledging your privilege that comes with controlling the narrative in theater. He talks about his early days, filming home movies, the early days of Theatref1rst and where he sees the company going in the future.
