Timberlake Wertenbaker: The playwright on making trouble, cheering for a Greek revolution and premature reports of her demise
History is always a way of looking at the present It's more detached than if you write a play about a revolution happening now [Wertenbaker's new play, Jefferson's Garden, is about the American War of Independence]. I became interested in the idea of freedom and revolution and the extent to which one will go to get that freedom.
