The Harrowing of Brimstone McReedy
Currently playing at the Red Sandcastle Theatre, until November 13th, here in Toronto is a wonderfully spooky and entertaining tale featuring a virtuoso solo performance by Eric Woolfe.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999) – George Lucas

The Mind Reels Ole Timey Radio Theatre – The Canterville Ghost
A few months ago, Sue and I started toying with a couple of ideas to expand on the fun we’d been having with the blog. Working together we came up with the idea of doing script reads of old radio programmes. To date, we’ve done three, and all of them have been hilarious,…
