4 SET 2026 · LJ joins us to talk about the delicate art of pretending nothing happened when, in fact, something has happened. We discuss forgotten lines, missed cues, fights that maybe should have been choreographed a little more carefully (or at all), and what happens when your worst fear decides to make an appearance onstage.
There are cables. There are fences. There are heights. There is some questionable WWE-inspired choreography. And of course, Patti.
21 GEN 2026 · Narrator/actress Rebecca Brokaw-Sands, my coworker at Soundbooth Theatre, pops by to regale us with stories of her time on The Play That Goes Wrong, among others. What happens when there's a stage accident within an accident? What's planned and what isn't? What is this, Inception?
And, surprise surprise, prop guns continue to be a nuisance. Who'da thunk!
27 GEN 2025 · Bienvenue! Today we're in Paris speaking with French performer / educator / writer / Beckett expert (Beckettxpert?) Matthieu Protin about : soliloquys with a mouth full of blood, title characters that go AWOL, saving ailing spectators, and the dangers of classical raked stages -- is it worse to be sliding off the stage, or in the audience waiting to get smushed? Roll with us on this one.
18 AGO 2024 · English comedian Paul Savage regales us with many tales of his time at the Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringes, as well as:
+ that time he kinda almost got kidnapped
+ that time he kinda sorta freed a mental patient for a gig
+ those times his life was almost a rom-com
+ whether deli meats are romantic
+ how to murder a comedian
+ the search for the ever-elusive Lucy, among others.
Check out Hopes Under the Hammer at Just the Tonic: The Caves at Edinburgh Fringe.
14 AGO 2024 · Three rays of sunshine named Amy McClain, Molly Kittle, and Michele Korb take a brief break from their Edinburgh Fringe craziness to giggle over a beer and chat about their Wizard of Oz-inspired "midlife musical" After the Rainbow, and what happens when your journey into Oz doesn't go as smoothly as planned. What if you don't have the budget for a real flying monkey? What do you do when you bonk your guitar out of tune mid-show? And is a capo really a castrated male chicken*?
*Nope, that's a capon. Oops.

12 AGO 2024 · In the next few episodes, we'll chat about onstage goofs with active Edinburgh Fringe performers during the most hectic and exciting theatre festival in the world.
What happens when your most important piece of tech fails you onstage, and the audience isn't too forgiving? This episode features Australian stand-up comedian Kurt Sterling, whose show Corporate Chronicles is playing at the Cabaret Voltaire for the full Fringe run.
17 APR 2020 · We could all use a laugh about now, right? Guest Tosin Morohunfola tells some tales of his many storied years in Kansas City and Chicago theatre, including the time he could have gotten himself fired for a slipup on a kid's show, and a couple of times where he may or may not have completely screwed up the entire run of a show...

25 OTT 2019 · Trick? Or treat?
