What a great way to end the 4th Season of my podcast, Baring It All with Call Me Adam!

I have been fortunate to interview Del Shores (Sordid Lives Creator) multiple times throughout the years.

After working in the entertainment industry for more than three decades as a Director, Producer, and Writer, Del is finally making his NYC theatrical directorial debut with Jiggs Burgess' play Wounded.

I am so excited to catch up with Del because I always have great conversations with him.

In this NEW interview, Del is Baring It All with Call Me Adam about:

  • Making his NYC theatrical directorial debut
  • One thing he hasn't done because something or someone got in the way
  • One path his life took that he would like to put on full display
  • Working with Whoopi Goldberg & Caroline Rhea
  • An update on the Sordid Lives Franchise
  • So much more

Wounded, by Jiggs Burgess, is about a repressed nobody who thinks of himself as somebody. An addict. Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? played out between hummingbirds. And a pussy eating dog. This is Wounded. Carrol could’ve been somebody, after all his book, The Crimson Valise, was made into a movie. Yet somehow Carrol’s unhealed past, and an aging mother, got in the way. On the other hand, Carrol’s classmate, Robert, was smart and driven. Went to one of the best private universities in the country on scholarship. But his damage led him down the path of addiction and eventually prison. In this darkest of comedies, the bleak paths our lives can lead us down are on full display. ***Warning: Recommended for adult audiences. Contains language of a sexual and violent nature.***

Wounded plays at the Soho Playhouse as part of the International Fringe Encore Series from January 24-February 11, 2024.
