Find yourself transported into the front room of the Brontë Parsonage in Haworth where your hostesses Audrey and Olivia will lead you on a romp through the lives and letters of Charlotte Brontë (author of Jane Eyre) and Emily Brontë (best known for Wuthering Heights)—with a few zany detours. The duo's blundering comedy is right out of the British farce playbook.
Listen in as our director Louanne Moldovan connects with the delightful duo Maggie Fox and Sue Ryding of LipService.. described by The Guardian as "the Laurel and Hardy of literary deconstruction.”
Oh no, my sweetie is gone!
Take a listen to this snappy, catchy duet with the boisterous Gavin Hoffman and Michael Mendelson in this circa Roaring 20s tune composed by the brilliant Rody Ortega for the Cygnet Radio Hour presentation of The Wild Party.
Composed by Rody Ortega
Based on Bee's Knees by Ted Lewis and Ray Lopez 1922
The Wild Party is a jazz-age, book-length narrative poem throbbing with passionate rhythms. Louche characters of all sorts engage in colorful debauchery, while main characters Queenie and Burr circle each other in a cynical, dangerous game of sexual power.
About the Playwright
Joseph Moncure March (1899–1977) was best known for his long narrative poems The Wild Party and The Set-Up. He attended Amherst College and was a protégé of Robert Frost's. He left school to enlist in the U.S. Army in 1918; he participated in the Saint Mihiel and Meuse-Argonne offensives. In 1919, he was discharged from the Army, returned to school and graduated Honoris Causa in 1920.
Listen in as Artistic Director Louanne Moldovan and Sonia Sabnis, Associate Professor of Greek, Latin, and Ancient Mediterranean Studies and Humanities at Reed College, discuss the power and poetry of language and rhyme in The Wild Party.
Haunting, magical, mystical, Faith Healer tells the story of Francis Hardy, an Irish travelling faith healer, his wife Grace, and his Cockney manager Teddy. This play was voted as one of the 100 most significant plays of the 20th century in a poll conducted by Royal National Theatre and has been named by The Independent as one of the "40 best plays of all time." This Cygnet Radio Hour production stars Bruce Burkhartsmeier as Frank, Artists Rep company member Vana O’Brien as Grace, and Keith Scales as Teddy. Bruce and Vana were recorded live in the studio. Keith was recorded virtually from Arkansas.
Director Louanne Moldovan and Gemma Whelan, artistic director of Corrib Theatre in Portland, Oregon, discuss the power and potency of the language in Faith Healer.
Video editing and scriptwriting, you say? This week we'll be reading a short comedy about a stoner wedding videographer that blends character elements from The Dude and anything ever played Robert Downey Jr.: "The Innovatographers" by Edward McEananey.
