The Lunchbox Interview: No White Picket Fence

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBox-2017-NoWhitePicket FenceWords are powerful. Words convey stories. Stories can convey a person’s innermost thoughts and experiences. Sometimes you can rewrite them, but sometimes they are more powerful when raw and direct.

My guest today is Dr. Robin C Whittaker, the Artistic Producer of Theatre St Thomas, and the co-playwright behind the production No White Picket Fence being staged at The Blackbox Theatre at STU. Dr. Whittaker joined me to talk about how this remarkable play about the experiences of foster care that several young women told, from the original 1000-page collection of words to the current verbatim script.

No White Picket Fence runs February 1-4 at STU’s Blackbox Theatre at 7:30pm each night, with a matinee performance on February 4 at 1:30pm.

Female Music Spotlighted on CHSR

Posted on by Posted in Announcements, Her Turn

Her Turn is returning to the airwaves!

Her TurnCHSR’s role in the community is to provide programming as diverse as the community it serves, and to give a voice to things that mainstream media often fail to recognize.

After noticing the lack of female presence on the airwaves, in June 2015 Erin Bond, one of few female radio hosts at CHSR, created a weekly hour show titled Her Turn, playing only all-female or female fronted bands and musicians. Interviewing musicians like SAVVIE, Vulva Culture, Nancy Pants, and Kris & Dee about being women in the music industry, Her Turn became an interesting insight into some of the obstacles women face in the scene.

Short lived, Her Turn was put on hiatus in February 2016 while Bond went on maternity leave. As the months went by Bond noticed again that female artists weren’t showcased as prominent as they could be, so she’s bringing Her Turn back early! Beginning January 30, 2017 7pm AST you can once again hear new episodes of Her Turn every Tuesday evening.

If you are a self-identified female artist and would like your music to appear on Her Turn, email Erin directly at stationmanager[at]chsrfm[dot]ca.

Also, check Her Turn out on Facebook for the latest episode and track listings.
