WGBH News' Executive Arts Editor Jared Bowen joined Boston Public Radio on Thursday to discuss the latest in arts and entertainment news.
Bowen recently sat down with Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick at the Emerson Colonial Theatre to discuss their pre-Broadway run of Neil Simon's "Plaza Suite."
The play, composed of three acts, involves different characters but all set in Suite 719 of New York City's Plaza Hotel.
"It's delicious," said Bowen. "They've brought it back here to Boston, where it premiered originally in the 1970s, I believe at the Colonial theater, for tryouts. They're coming back. That's where Sarah Jessica Parker got her professional debut starring in The Innocence in the 1970s, before that went on to Broadway, so she knows all the little back spaces of the Colonial Theater from where she was running around as a child in this production, and then they'll take it to Broadway ... It feels like one of those things where just, everything was meant to be."
