Part 2 of 3: Have you ever wondered why everything in the theatre seems backward? Why is stage right the same as house left? Why is the front of the stage, down? And what do you do with 800lbs of lights in your hand? Hear about this, and more on today’s episode.

I have always had a passion for the theatre. It’s one of those things that had such a large impact in my life, that I can’t imagine what I would be like without those experiences. On today’s three part episode, we look into the history of the stage, the origins of theatrical terminology, and the present day fun facts that abound. From the first plays performed in ancient Greece, through what constitutes a “Broadway” theatre; we’ll even explore why I think the proper spelling is always “theatre.”

For episode 1, I thought it might be nice to get to know each other. Who is Chase, and why is he telling me fun facts? We'll go along my journey through life, and learn a few fun facts along the way — from the rail yards of the Pennsylvania railroad, to designing theme parks.

Hopefully you'll find it entertaining enough to want some more, and come back next time when we're focused more closely on fun facts, and less on its host.
