Discussion
Opening on October 16th and closing on October 25th in Bragg Creek, Swamp Donkey Musical Theatre presents A Taste of Things to Come, directed by Ang Woodard. Kyle sits down with Ang to talk about what this production means and the fabulous set and decor that transports an audience back to 1957 and 1967.

About the Show:
This laugh-out-loud, fabulously fun romp that celebrates the friendships of four very different women. There was a time when the kitchen was a proving ground for women, a time when cooking up a tasty casserole garnered the same respect as being the CEO of Sears. In 1957, four women see an opportunity to make their mark and enter a Betty Crocker Cooking Contest in hopes of changing their lives. When they meet up again in 1967, what they get is more than what they bargained for… just a little taste of things to come

S5E3 - Torch Song - Scorpio Theatre
Discussion
Opening October 1 and closing October 10th at the Pumphouse Theatre in Calgary, Scorpio Theatre presents Torch Song by Harvey Fierstein (the 2018 revised version), directed by Joey Sayer. Kyle sits down with Joey to discuss the impact of this production, what it means to come back to this work 36 year later and why a 1970s era gay-lens production like this is so very relevant today.

About the Show:
In Torch Song – the two-act revival of Harvey Fierstein’s award-winning Torch Song Trilogy – the life of Arnold Beckoff, a torch song-singing, Jewish drag queen living in New York City, is dramatized over the span of the late 1970s and 1980s. Told with a likable, human voice, Torch Song follows Arnold’s odyssey to find happiness in New York. All he wants is a husband, a child, and a pair of bunny slippers that fit, but a visit from his overbearing mother reminds him that he needs one thing more: respect.
