(00:00) Intro and the KMUZ Theatre Talk Calendar.
(10:39) Director Tamara McGinnis loves Neil Simon’s little-know comedy, FOOLS, for a simple reason. To many, it’s a comic fable about a teacher hired by a village in Ukraine to break its 200-year-old curse of stupidity. But to Tamara, the insights and lessons in Simon’s story teaches people in today’s world how to stand firmly on their principles and think independently. FOOLS runs Nov. 14–24 at Corban University Theatre.
(29:57) THE THANKSGIVING PLAY runs Nov. 1-17 at Keizer Homegrown Theatre and promises to be a real hoot. Director Mia Apodoca and actors Frankie Wright and Robby McMorris dive deep into indigenous playwright Larissa FastHorse’s timely modern satire on politically correct theatre. It all starts when a theatre teacher is tasked to write a play that celebrates both Turkey Day and Native American Heritage month . . .
(47:35) Wrap-up
KMUZ Theatre Talk airs at 9 a.m. the first and third Fridays of the month at KMUZ 100.7 and 88.5 FM in the mid-Willamette Valley and on the KMUZ app for Apple and Android.
