You can also re-watch or catch-up on past episodes!

This episode we talk with some of the nominees from across the performance categories: Lead Performance (Actor and Actress), Outstanding Supporting Performance (Actor and Actress) and Outstanding Ensemble. Where do they go first when starting to build a character? Do you have to fall in love with a character to play them well? What happens if they disagree with a director’s idea of their character? What has being cut from performing right now revealed about what they lov...e most about being in front of a live audience? Join us Thursday, Nov. 26 at 7:00 p.m. EST for a great conversation with these performers!

This episode will be devoted to talking to nominees from across the design categories Outstanding Costume Design, Lighting Design, Set Design, and Sound Design and/or Music Composition. How do designers get their ideas? How might they read a script differently than non-designers? What do they most notice when they’re watching a show? Which design categories are most likely to fight each other? Join us Wednesday, Nov. 25 at 7:00 p.m. EST to find out! Hosted by Caitlin Mu...rphy featuring guests: Bruno-Pierre Houle Sophie El Assaad Diana Uribe Ted Stafford & Nick Carpenter Presented in collaboration with The Segal Centre for Performing Arts

No nominees here. Sadly, these are some of the shows that didn’t even get to open this past season due to the Covid-enforced closures of theatres. It won’t all be sighs and sadness though. We want to celebrate the work that had already been done in creating these shows and talk about what else was in store, in development, in dreams... You may not have had a chance to see these incredible shows (yet), but don't miss this conversation! Hosted by Caitlin Murphy featuring exciting guests including Anisa Cameron, Amanda Kellock, Debbie Friedmann, and Paul Van Dyck Presented in collaboration with The Segal Centre for Performing Arts
