\u201cI was always in a play, always in rehearsals. And if I wasn't in a play, I was counting the hours \u2018til I could be in a play. Because it was the first time I felt a sense of belonging, a sense of community.\u201d In\xa0Making a Scene, actress Constance Wu (Lyle, Lyle Crocodile) takes readers backstage in her own life in often hilarious \u2014 and always real and relatable \u2014 essays. She joins us on the show to talk about authenticity and big emotions, love, her big break (and what happened next), her literary inspirations including Elena Ferrante and Lily King, and much more with Poured Over\u2019s host, Miwa Messer. And we end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Becky.
