An Interview With
Joe DiPietro
By Gary Wien
Award-winning playwright, Joe
DiPietro, may live in New York
City, but his Jersey roots have
been apparent in many of his
plays from the hit musical The
Toxic Avenger to his lat est work,
The Second Mrs. Wilson. This
play examines a look at a rather
unique — and terrifying — period in the history of the United
States when President WoodNewJerseyStage.com
row Wilson suffered a stroke
and was essentially replaced
by his second wife, Edith. This
took place during a period in
which America was debating
about entering World War I and
Wilson was trying to create the
League of Nations. The play
is currently running at George
Street Playhouse in New Brunswick until November 29.
