After the interview, we did a couple reviews, first one being that of White Noise. After White Noise we covered the movie Edge of the Knife and finally, How the World Began.

We kicked off today's episode with a live interview! We haven't had one of those in years and couldn't be happier to have had 2021/22 Dance West Network Re-Centering/Margins creative residency artist Sophie Dow to talk about their experience in the residency and as a dancer in general! After our interview we had some shout-outs. Shout-out to Same Difference and Himmat by Theatre Conspiracy, CJSW 90.9 FM’s Survivors, Drag at the Improv Centre, Chor Leoni's upcoming concerts and Vancouver Opera’s Opera Classes for adults.

We have so many reviews today! First up was All Bodies Dance which was followed by a quick listen of Mojo Jojo by Turunesh who also performed at Arts Night Out, creating the perfect transition into the review of Arts Night Out at MOA. We then heard a review of Made in Italy by the Arts Club Theatre Company as well as Program B of Six of One: New Play Festival by Studio 58. Finally we talked about Kidd Pivot's Revisor presented by DanceHouse.

IT'S FUNDRIVE* STILL!We started off with a shout-out to MOA because throughout Black History Month (February) they are admitting Black and African community members for free! We also shouted-out Farhaven, a local Vancouver band, because they are playing a gig on February 17th at the Koerner's Pub on UBC's campus. You also heard their latest single It's My Life so you get a taste of what their gig will be like! After the shout-outs Serra had her interview with Olivia C. Davies, the artistic director of O. Dela Arts and they talked about Matriarch Uprising. A dance festival happening February 14th to 19th! Our last shout-out of the day was for RE/PLAY, the digital platform of The Cultch on which they have different productions on demand and livestreamed. Finally, Lua and Serra talked about Rocky Horror Show, being put on by Studio 58. Spoiler alert: everything about it was amazing.
