Grow out your hair, open those collared shirts, and burn them bras, ladies: we’re going back to the 1970s with Cameron Crowe’s “Almost Famous!” Adapted from the 2000 movie of the same name, this adaptation features book and lyrics by Crowe with music by Tom Kitt.
Paul and Jill squeeze into their tour van to ponder: what makes a good movie adaptation? How many headlights are on the highway? And where’s Penny Lane’s all-female folk band called The Band Aids?

We’re travelling way, way, WAY back in time to the 1930s with Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht’s The Threepenny Opera! This week, we’re joined by Sick + Twisted Theatre’s Debbie Patterson, to talk all things Verfremdungseffekt.
Paul, Jill, and Debbie puzzle over such questions as: why does Brecht hate applause? What other sneaky show tunes was the Chairman of the Board tricked into singing? And when will we finally seize the means of production to make Daddy Marx proud?
