All Of It - Un podcast de WNYC
Robert Burns is known as the national poet of Scotland, a trailblazer for his decision to write in Scots and a Scots dialect of English. But his journey to become a famous poet was not always easy. Actor and fellow Scotsman Alan Cumming brings the story of Burns to life in a new show of theater and dance called "Burn." Co-created by Steven Hoggett, "Burn" is running from September 20-25 at The Joyce Theater. Cumming joins us to discuss.
