Fringe Fest Flyer (07/29)

In today's program, Andrew Keith and I discuss our favorite picks from Fringe Eve (the official Fringe Festival preview night), which include Daydream, Die Roten Puncte: Kunst Rock, Hockey Dad, The Only Friends We Have, The Pig of Happiness, The Sputniks, and Wanderlust. Even though this was a fairly exhaustive conversation, it still fails to encompass all of my favorites from preview night, as it doesn't mention The Guitar Teacher, Elephant in Zulu, and When Harry Met Harry - all of which I'm quite looking forward to.

You'll also hear interviews with Martin Dockery (writer and star Wanderlust), as well as interviews with Joel Crichton and Jon Lachlan Stewart (the writers and two cast members from Death: LIVE!). During our interview, Jon made a wild offer: if you call his cellphone ((780) 700-4235), he will give you a free ticket to a Death: Live! showing of your choice. One would be foolhardy not to take advantage of such an offer.

Note: I plan to host my programs online again this year, but due to technical difficulties will not be able to do so today. I will post a link to a downloadable version of today's show ASAP.
