    S4 E3 - Falstaff, Trevor Nunn, and a Career in Shakespeare with David Weston

    In this interview I talk to David Weston, who spent a very long career in Shakespeare's plays. He was Ian McKellen's understudy in a world tour of King Lear. He kept a diary during that time which was published as Covering McKellen, which he followed up with Covering Shakespeare. I do some fangirling, and we chat about his career.  Remington Campbell (@remingtonadeney) • Instagram photos and videos

    3.5B - Divertissements: Ally O'Brien, Violet Adeney, and Jennifer James

    Welcome to our first Divertissements episodes, three short conversation about three wildly, different topics (and their various tangents).   In this episode I spoke to:  Ally O'Brien about body expectations in ballet, the Alexandra Waterbury case, and the value of the old guard. (Ally O'Brien (@awkwardprincessally) • Instagram photos and videos) Violet Adeney about the lack of musical theatre roles for altos, how this ruins road trips, and why Encanto is great (Violet Adeney (@violet_aidknee) • Instagram photos and videos) and Jennifer James about Brecht, almost Brecht, and how to make an audience think critically about a show.
