MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Marie Kohler, playwright of "Boswell," joined us Wednesday, Nov. 26 along with actors Madeline Calais-King and Sarah Zapiain to preview the play's run at Next Act Theatre.
The play follows a 20th-century academic named Joan who goes looking for unpublished writings by literary figure Samuel Johnson. Her work is interrupted by the 18th-century journals of James Boswell, which take her back in time and show her the power of authenticity.
The production runs through Dec. 14 at Next Act Theatre in Milwaukee.
