The Broadway comedy O Mary is nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Play and Best Leading Actor in a Play. The comedy follows a very fictionalized, intentionally improbable version of First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln in the time leading to her husband's assassination. Our guest today, Kola Skola, wrote the play and stars as Mary. They spoke with Fresh Air's Anne-Marie Baldonado.

From WHYY in Philadelphia, I'm Sam Brigger with Fresh Air Weekend. Today, musician Jason Isbell. The songs on his new album are about... Old relationships, new relationships, gratitude, fear, loss, grief, joy. Several songs allude to the fracturing of his marriage to musician Amanda Shires. Terry asked if they could find a way to talk about these songs without being invasive.

Also, we hear from Scottish actor David Tennant. When he was three, he told his parents he wanted to grow up to play Doctor Who on TV. As a teen, he held on to that dream.
