Brenna Coates lit up the screen as Lucy on CBC’s Coroner and in the indie horror thriller The Sinners, and also won a 2018 Dora Mavor Moore Theatre Award for her work in Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem. Jessica Steen’s long list of credits includes Stargate SG-1, Republic of Doyle, NCIS, and Lisa Stillman on Heartland, the longest-running hour-long scripted drama in Canadian history. Brenna and Jessica are both powerhouses in their own rights, so it’s little surprise that they make absolute magic together playing daughter and mother in Stream Queen, a scripted audio comedy which takes us into the unfiltered lives of Gen Z vloggers. Stream Queen was written and directed by Hayley Tyson and has lived in the podcasting charts since dropping its five episodes in September. In this funny and fascinating interview, Jessica and Brenna talk about the joys and challenges of creating a sitcom for our ears, and how they really feel about the whole world of vlogging.
