Welcome to The Breakfast Dish! Dance, music, visual art, theatre and get-to-know-you conversations with the artists behind the work. Join Griffin Cork and his mom, Karen Johnson-Diamond every Monday morning as they meet the creators of today's digital offerings. This podcast is dairy and gluten free!
This week, Karen and Griffin are joined by the Artistic Director of Theatre Calgary (and very kind friend), Stafford Arima. Stafford also happens to be the director of their new filmed production of A Christmas Carol. From the moment the pandemic hit and their shows were cancelled, Theatre Calgary has kept on trying to provide entertainment for Calgary and beyond. From their online tcTakeout series featuring local artists, to the summertime online Shakespeare by the Bow production of Romeo & Juliet through to this new Christmas Carol, Stafford and the team at TC have done everything they can to keep relevant and creative in these hard times.
