Show Notes

This week on Spotlight 814: Erie's Local Theatre Podcast

Join hosts Ryan Dawley and Brenna Thummler, as they are joined by Camellia Fazzalari from PACA's Weird Romance, Chris Pedersen from the Academy Theatre's Anastasia, and Jordan B Wolfe from the Erie Playhouse's Tootsie!

Camellia Fazzalari talks us through the dual acts of Weird Romance, sharing her experience playing multiple characters, and how audiences have reacted so far!

Chris Pedersen tells us about Anastasia, currently in the midst of a four-week run at the Academy Theater in Meadville, as he plays Vlad.

Jordan Wolfe talks us through his insane costume/character changes as Michael Dorsey/Dorothy Michaels in Tootsie, currently running at the Erie Playhouse. We dive into the story and the necessary changes made by the creators to the script and score.

Brace yourselves for a rapid-fire rundown of theatrical happenings from Meadville to Erie and beyond, in this week's What's On 814?. We've got all the information on upcoming plays, musicals, auditions, and the always-exciting Originals Festival at Dramashop. Brenna also gives us a peek at the world of "Crankies" with an exclusive event slated at Hatch Hollow in Meadville!

Jordan tells us about our personalities based on the coffee we drink after our Werner Books Coffee Break.
