Episode 36 - Sets: Simple or Spectacle?
We kick things off with a little Jim Henson appreciation, dive into the fun and challenges of double-casting a show, and give some much-deserved love to the ensemble and the important role they play in bringing a production to life.
Then, we turn our attention to the world of set design! What goes into creating a set that brings a story to life? We discuss the importance of reading the script, collaborating with the director, and deciding whether a production calls for something simple and practical or a full-blown theatrical spectacle. From the first ideas to the final design, we explore what it takes to build the world where the magic happens.

Episode 35 - Who's the Villain?
This episode we look at another side of the villain arc. Every villain has a story. But what makes someone the villain, and are all villains created equal? This week, we're looking at the obvious and not so obvious bad guys. We're exploring theatre’s unconventional villains—the characters who don’t twirl their mustaches, cackle, or even realize they’re the problem. From good intentions gone wrong to heroes who might not be so heroic; before they take the final step and make the final choice, we're asking... who is the villain?
