Binary System Podcast #307: WTNV #204 "The Audition"
Original broadcast date March 24, 2022. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2022/03/binary-system-podcast-307-wtnv-204-the-audition/
Auditions are open for the Night Vale Community Players production of Our Town, and Cecil is trying out for the part of The Stage Manager. The director's going for more of a traditional interpretation (not like her Tartuffe in the nude, or The Iceman Cometh in space). But after growing up inside and adjacent to the theater, we can pretty much say that any live performance of a classic - even a really weird interpretation - counts to us as a "traditional" theater experience.
Except Cecil's interpretation of Equus. Good God. No, Cecil, Equus is not just a story about "a little boy who likes horsies", the heck is the matter with you?
The theater-centric episode lets us wander off into tangents like Kurosawa's Throne of Blood and Lin Manuel Miranda's In the Heights. Elizabeth's also seen all of season 2 of Raised By Wolves, and we have to talk for a bit about the endless creativity of Transformers fan artists. (Mermaid variants are optional, crossovers with Gargoyles are fairly common, smut is pretty much mandatory.)
This week's outro is a clip from notchpeak v2 by Tea K Pea.
The artist doing the Bumblebee/Charlie artwork is YoukaiYume and can be found here. https://twitter.com/YoukaiYume_Art/status/1168357992942559232?s=20&t=flKC8D6Ry5M_7RcCtl44tw
Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further! You can support the restoration of Dunan's castle, legally call yourself Lady or Laird, AND if you use http://www.scottishlaird.co.uk/#_a_2gk to get there, you can support this podcast too!
