Karen Zacarías is an award-winning playwright and her popular work, The Book Club Play opens at the Everyman Theatre here in Baltimore tonight.

The Everyman is by no means the only theater choosing to produce a Karen Zacarias play. This season she’s one of the 20 most-produced playwrights at American regional theaters, and it’s not the first time she’s made that list.

Zacarias has also co-written ballet librettos and almost a dozen musicals for young audiences. She’s the founder of Washington’s Young Playwrights’ Theater, and co-founder of the Latino Theatre Commons — a national organization dedicated to updating the American narrative with stories of Latinos.

Karen Zacarias joins us along with our theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck.
