“The Stage” is where theatre is performed, but it need not be a “stage” at all..
It’s time once again for the annual celebration of new and local playwrights from across New Brunswick in the festival known as NB Acts! My guests today are Len Falkenstein, organizer of the festival; Alex Donovan, playwright of Caged, and Jake Martin, playwright of Wasters. Alex and Jake are also directing eachother’s plays as well as performing.
We talk about the weighty issues that seem to be influencing this year’s crop of plays, highlights of the festival schedule, and Alex and Jake both discuss their own journey to each of their plays.

On this weekends episode of The Crazy Train our guests were one of Fredericton’s most promising new up and coming Metal bands ‘Soulstice’. Having won the Leo Hayes school battle of the bands the guys from ‘Soulstice’ entered into a local recording studio just a few weeks ago to record a smoking track called ‘Apocalypse’ (personally one of my favorite new local Metal songs to come out this year. The guys, Enzo and Konnor are soon to graduate from high school and the bands guitarist, song-writer Ezra has just graduated. Like ‘Anesthesia’ these young guys are filled with great ideas, burgeoning talent and loads of ambition. I can’t wait to see what else the guys have in store for us. If you didn’t catch them on Sunday July 11 at the Charlotte St. Arts Center, you can catch them playing at East Coast Awakening on Saturday, July 30th (more info on that in the episode).
