Nathan and I discuss his path, his projects, and some correlation between Jesus and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Come hang out with us for a little bit. We'd love to have you. Merry Christmas, everyone.

Join Crystal Bloodworth, Justin Asher, and me as we discuss what we feel the best theater would be to hole up in during a zombie apocalypse. We talk entrances, exits, rooftop access, nearby food and water sources, all the bases one would need to cover during an outbreak. We also draft our zombie survival super team and dive deep into ourselves about whether or not we would make it out alive. 

We discuss The Fantasticks, now playing out at the Harrell Theater, Justin Asher's directing style, the process for the show, the concept, and we dive deeper into the creative dynamo that is Justin. 

Guest host Crystal Lane talks to Hal Harmon, Emily Burnett, and yours truly about the upcoming 10-Minute play festival being produced by Emerald Theatre. We discuss thoughts on directing short pieces, writing short pieces, go through the ins and outs of making it all happen, and we answer a couple of off topic theatre questions. Focus is really just a car some people drive. 

I have two fabulous Memphis directors joining me today in the studio. We discuss small theatre, large theatre, and what it takes to direct both effectively. We offer tips for newcomers and how to deal with actors who have been around the stage a time or two. I'm sure we talk about more theatre topics, too. That's what we do.

I discuss Clark Gable Slept Here with guests Wade Murphy and Crystal Lane, which will be running at Emerald Theatre Company June 13-22. We also discuss the impact of small theaters on actors new to the community.

Chase Ring and I discuss Chicken, the show he is directing at Quark theatre. We also discuss small theatre and what it takes to make it grow, as well as showing some love to new and upcoming stars of the Memphis stage.
