The Lunchbox Interview: Len Falkenstein on Notable Acts [FULL SHOW]

Posted on 2016-03-10 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBox-NotableActsTheatre is an ephemeral thing created at a time, in a place, between performers and an audience.

All of those things take many forms, but they are all connected by words.

The call for words has been made! The 15th Annual Notable Acts Theatre Festival will be accepting scripts until the end of April. The best of those will be transformed and solidified over the summer, resulting in their production for audiences in the end of July.

My guest today is all-round “theatre guy” Len Falkenstein. He teaches theatre and is involved in numerous ways with theatre in this city, but he’s here today to specifically talk about the Notable Acts festival, including the variety of things that can be done within the plays, a few words of advice to aspiring playwrights, and the specific forms and categories for the contest.

(BTW: turns out both Len and I were a little wrong on the website. It’s NBActs.com .)

Music today:

  • Do you know All I Want? (It’s from the album No Problemo by No Aloha..)
  • It’s time to Stop Making Excuses, or so says John Campbelljohn on his album Chin Up.
  • Tick, tock, tick… Clock by Instruments from The End Of Light By Heat.

The Lunchbox Interview: Jean-Michel Cliche & Ryan Griffith from Next Folder Theatre on “Back To Zero”

Posted on 2016-03-08 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

LunchBox-NextFoldingWhen is a story created — when it is first written, or when it is first re-written?

My guests today are Jean-Michel Cliche (Producer/Director) and Ryan Griffith (Artistic Director/Playwright) of The Next Folding Theatre Company. Their latest production, Back To Zero, opens at the Black Box Theatre on Wednesday, March 9. They join me today to talk about how the play came to be (from a short story in progress), a mystery of a mystery, and what Back To Zero is generally all about (but no spoilers!).

Since it’s International Women’s Day, all of my musical selections are from women or female-fronted bands:

  • Fool by Basia Bulat, from her album Good Advice;
  • Mistakes by Roxy and the Underground Soul Sound from the album Puppet;
  • And Somebody Somewhere by Amelia Curran, from her album They Promised You Mercy.

Time flies! I want to dedicate that Metallica tribute to the original ‘Puppet Master’ Jason Shipley who was the ‘Crazy Trains’ host from the mid 1980’s up to about 1996/97

STU Lunchbox 2016-02-02: Shame & Fandom

Posted on 2016-03-03 by encaf1 Posted in STU Lunchbox

STULunchBox-2016-04-Shame-FandomWhat is shame — and why, oh why, do we do it? Do we have an epidemic of shame that the Internet makes even easier?

And do you squee over a particular TV show/anime/game/movie/comic book? Do you ever cosplay (costume play) as your favourite character? Are you carrying jewelry, books or clothing adorned with the best symbols of the best shows? Maybe you’re part of a fandom.

In the first half of the show, Ben Crouse takes a look at shame in the Internet age — and in the gym. And in the second half, Jordyn Meade-Baxter talks with people about their favourite things and fandoms.
