You’ve both been on Broadway a number of times. Pinkham: I’ve actually been thinking a lot about Jason’s mom, too.

Pinkham: We should talk about that off the record, because that feels, to quote a line from the play, “in the realm of the personal.” Pinkham: Wait, you’ve been thinking about my mom? Pinkham: I’ve been thinking a lot about my mom. Did we do what we set out to do? And are we happy where we are? I think audiences will be forced to ask the question: How much has changed in the 25 years since the play was staged? And these questions start to pop into one’s mind. I am getting older, I’m married with a kid, and whether I like it or not, I’m growing up. Jason Biggs: One of the themes that stands out to me is happiness and how you define it. As men, what relevance have you found in the play today?īryce Pinkham: I’ve found that it’s about much more than “women’s issues”-it’s about human issues. This play encapsulates a particular moment in the late ’80s, and Wendy Wasserstein is often labeled a feminist playwright. Pinkham, a Broadway vet who recently earned a Tony nom for A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder, is Heidi’s lifelong confidant, Peter. “Let’s get started.” Biggs, best known for the American Pie movies and Orange Is the New Black, plays Scoop, an on-again, off-again love interest for the title character, played by Elisabeth Moss. “Fuck that guy,” Jason Biggs says of his tardy Heidi Chronicles costar Bryce Pinkham while sitting in a corner booth at famous theater hangout Sardi’s.
