Rebecca Strum on MACo's Eureka Day

Zach talks with Rebecca Strum who is directing Middlebury Acting Company's production of Eureka Day. Eureka Day is set in a progressive day school by the same name, a utopic school in Berkely, California where all decisions must be made by consensus. The show is timely, funny, and also Rebecca Strum's final directorial work before she moves to Los Angeles after 10 years in Vermont!
