Episode 26-0605: JQA runs June 12-28 at Keizer Homegrown Theatre

—Aaron Posner’s JQA is a provocative, haunting and often hilarious power play that challenges the way Americans think of our country, our government and ourselves. Complicated, passionate and difficult, John Quincy Adams was a brilliant diplomat, a congressman known for his eloquence, arrogance and integrity and an ineffectual one-term president. Posner’s unique and highly theatrical dark comedy imagines key confrontations between Adams and some of America’s most dynamic figures. Host Ed Schoaps learns more about JQA from Keizer Homegrown Theatre director Jay Gipson-King and actors Rick Sanders and Jessica Peterson.
