With the cost of living these days, do you ever feel like rebelling? Director Isabella Cesari and I discuss Low Pay? Don’t Pay!, a play about just that. Written by Nobel Prize-winning playwright Dario Fo, the production runs from September 25 to October 6, 2024, at Alumnae Theatre (Mainstage) 70 Berkeley Street Toronto, Ontario 416-364-4170 https://alumnaetheatre.com/
My coverage of the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival continues my interview with Fabian Stumm, the director, writer, and star of Sad Jokes. This German tragicomedy tells the story of Joseph, a gay screenwriter, played by Stumm himself, who co-parents a child with his best friend. When she falls into depression, Joseph steps in as the primary caregiver, all while trying to craft a screenplay that will resonate with audiences. I had the chance to sit down with Fabian during the festival, and I hope you enjoy our conversation!
