pj1228Here's another lively chat with Geraint Wyn Davies interviewing Seana McKenna and Scott Wentworth.
While theatres are closed, the Stratford Festival offers online screenings of some of their filmed productions. So far I've watched King Lear and Coriolanus.
King Lear (2014)
FK alumni include Colm Feore (Blood Money) as the king.
Available until May 14.
Coriolanus (2018)
This is Robert Lepage's stunning production set in modern times. Produced like a film, it was amazing to see this live on stage. Some of the effects are lost when viewed as a film.
FK alumni include Lucy Peacock (The Human Factor) who is an oustanding Volumnia. Other familiar faces, not from FK, but Canadian television are Graham Abbey as Aufidius and Tom McCamus as Menenius. And Tom Rooney and Stephen Ouimette are always a delight to watch.
Available until May 21
