This week on Theater Talk, Anthony and Peter talk about Chris Handley's impressive direction of AGATHA CHRISTIE'S THE MURDER OF ROGER ACKROYD at The Alleyway Theatre; WAITRESS, cleverly directed by Susan Drozd with movement direction by Collin McKee, starring Maria Pedro with a solid cast (it's the final MusicalFare show at their current Daemen University home); and BURN THIS, the emotional Lanford Wilson play at Road Less Traveled Productions (See listings under "continuing" below). Seven (7!) shows open over May 1st and 2nd! (See listings just below). For 32 years (as of November 2024), Theater Talk has been appointment listening on WBFO, featuring the insights of theater critic and historian Anthony Chase, who joins Peter Hall for a five-minute weekly broadcast at 6:45am, 8:45am, and 5:45pm Fridays on 88.7 WBFO with a podcast available on wbfo.org. NOTE: Theater listings are included with the podcast. As part of BTPM (Buffalo Toronto Public Media), their beat is primarily Buffalo theater, but Broadway, The Shaw Festival, The Stratford Festival, and Chautauqua are covered as are other relevant art forms for the stage, including ballet and opera.
