There was a recent article in the New York Times featuring Tim Crouch and his role as the sole actor in I, Malvolio. In the interview, he talks about the reception of teenagers and younger audiences to his performance and how he conceptualizes the impact of spotlighting a minor character from a major Shakespearean play.

Crouch quotes:

Т“Children and teenagers donТ’t easily relate to stories about kings and dukes, and to tell only stories about kings and dukes is to ignore regular people,Т” he said. Т“ItТ’s important for me, politically, to see that theater isnТ’t just about the powerful.Т”
