Q. & A. with Paul Rudnick
Aside from producing some of the magazine’s funniest humor pieces, Paul Rudnick has written such plays as “Jeffrey” and “The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told” and screenplays for “Addams Family Values” and “In & Out,” among others. His latest stage project is “Cabin Pressure,” a one-act monologue that opened this week as part of the series “Summer Shorts,” at 59E59. (It shares a bill with a musical about real estate and a breakup drama by Neil LaBute.) Peter Bartlett stars as a celebrity-obsessed flight attendant receiving a medal of valor from the President—for a feat of heroism that turns out to be somewhat less than heroic. We spoke to Paul about the play, the plight of the flight attendant, and space diapers. Click-through to read the conversation: http://nyr.kr/NkzqMY
