And so Shaw has announced their new season…

It’s interesting that they’re doing Noel Coward. I love Coward, so I’m chuffed as the brits would say. My hope is that when they cast, they do something brave. I would love to see some diversity in ‘Still Life’. A really lovely play, and a great opportunity for any actor. I also noticed that they’re reading ‘Top Dog, Under Dog’, a great play, but very… daring. I think it’s absolutely amazing that they want to introduce the play to the Shaw audience, and I think it would be stupendous if they produced the play, but there are diverse plays that would be more in their comfort zone of the Shaw audience. Before you can throw Mahler at a music audience, and you should, but there’s nothing wrong with a little Eina Klina Nacht Music.
