Episodes

    10/06/2018 Duration: 39min

    It’s a peanut butter and jam-slammed episode of #yegarts news, Sterlings chatter, classical Kathak in KHOJ, and a very special drop-in by Trent Wilkie from The Undad to talk about Concrete Theatre‘s Sprouts Festival and theatre for kidlets. Also Fawnda attempts to describe seeing Angels in America in one measly minute. Listen to her fail! I Don’t […]

    21/05/2018 Duration: 25min

    It’s a full-time week for guest Laura Raboud as we take in Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story at the Citadel Theatre, then hunker in for the befuddling, heart-churning experience of Collin Doyle’s new play, Terry and the Dog. What a time to be alive in #yegarts. I Don’t Get It is a proud member […]

  • Season 4 Episode 26

    14/05/2018 Duration: 21min

    This week we catch Alberta Ballet’s All Of Us (ie: The Tragically Hip portrait ballet) in all its post-apocalyptic, dread-headed glory. Does it do Downie justice? Do we win the war? Is it even ballet? We try to answer these questions in the post-show parkade. Do we succeed? You tell us! I Don’t Get It […]

  • Season 4 Episode 25

    07/05/2018 Duration: 27min

  • Season 4 Episode 24

    23/04/2018 Duration: 34min

    A week of wonder and juxtaposition: We ramble on physics and music (Theatre Network‘s Infinity); clapping and gravitas (Jairo Barrull Flamenco Company); and the gut-wrenching, mind-stilling Pretty Goblins at Workshop West. We have a bet that one will win a Governor General Award. Can you guess which one? I Don’t Get It is a proud […]

  • Season 4 Episode 22

    16/04/2018 Duration: 21min

    In the post #MeToo era, what are we allowed to think of a comic fromp like Don Giovanni? Special guest Colleen Feehan joins Fawnda to dissect the goosebumpy moments of this most classically rapey-y of operas.

  • Season 4 Episode 21

    08/04/2018 Duration: 25min

    We tackle Tiny Bear Jaws‘ production of Cleave, a play by bright young writer/producer Elena Belyea, where six characters work through identity issues from the inside out. Be forewarned, there’s adult content (but is it really?). Also we mull over new developments on YEG’s venue front and the EAC‘s ongoing public consultation process. Have a […]

  • Season 4 Episode 20

    01/04/2018 Duration: 39min

    It happened: Betroffenheit blew through the Citadel on Easter weekend, leaving audiences agog in its wake. Did it meet our incredibly high expectations? But first, Paul and Fawnda mull over the art of consultation in light of the Galleria going kaput and the myriad public sessions seeking input on the city’s 2029 Arts & Heritage […]

  • Season 4 Episode 19

    25/03/2018 Duration: 26min

    It’s classical children’s tale meets near-classic trope of parents facing the tragic death of a child. This week Paul takes on Alberta Ballet‘s sparkling new Cinderella, while Fawnda gets a taste of the “slow-theatre” movement at Wild Side Productions’ Poison with Laura Raboud. I Don’t Get It is a proud member of the Alberta Podcast Network, […]

  • Season 4 Episode 18

    18/03/2018 Duration: 42min

    It’s the big one, folks: The Children of God episode is here. We even saw it twice. Special guest Laura Raboud offers her musical expertise on the show that, by all popular accounts, has that really, really powerful ending. Like, really. For. Real. (No spoilers, either. Really.) In other news, we also caught a night […]

  • Season 4 Episode 17

    11/03/2018 Duration: 26min

      It’s an extra special throwback to when Meg Roe and Alessandro Juliani were in town starring in Onegin. They’re also part of the sound design team for Betroffenheit, and before they moved on to the next tour stop, we snagged them to chat about working with Crystal Pite, their own creative partnership, and what to anticipate in one […]

  • Season 4 Episode 16

    04/03/2018 Duration: 42min

    YEG stages are hopping these days. Paul and Fawnda start out a busy week with Toronto Dance Theatre‘s 50th Anniversary showcase House Mix, followed hotly on the heels by Mercury Opera‘s site-appropriate production of La Traviata at Chez Pierre—which includes the return of guest opera buff Colleen Feehan. Bringing it home (all the way back to  Ukraine, no less), […]

  • Season 4 Episode 15

    25/02/2018 Duration: 33min

    It’s a very special episode, with a very special guest’s hot take on Andrew Tay’s You Can’t Buy it, But I’ll Sell it to You Anyway SUCKA (hint, it’s Brian Webb!). Plus we cover Sheldon Elter’s Metis Mutt, running at Theatre Network through March 4th, and Paul’s first-ever Citie Ballet show. I Don’t Get It is a proud member of […]

  • Season 4 Episode 13

    17/02/2018 Duration: 19min

    It’s our hottest #HotTake ever as we jump in our chariot (Fawnda’s Kia) to flee Friday’s Chinook Series offerings, which included the coldhearts’ raunchy musical Unrepentant Necrophile, and extraordinary old-school clowning with Cirque du Soleil alumnus Maximine. It’s a car-ride to remember, folks.

  • Season 4 Episode 12

    11/02/2018 Duration: 38min

    Pipelines, patriarchs, and Pinafore, oh my! We see the timely re-mount of Matthew MacKenzie’s Bears, which spun through town last week with Punctuate! Theatre before heading on a cross-province tour. Then, the father/son relationship went under the magnifying glass (to illuminate the miniatures) in Tetsuro Shigematsu’s Empire of the Son at the Citadel. And it’s […]

  • Season 4 Episode 11

    21/01/2018

    Paul and Fawnda and Laura saw ALL the things this week: We swilled vodka at Catalyst Theatre‘s presentation of Onegin, and caught Kill Your Television‘s all-male cast in Shakespeare’s R&J. Our eyes watered under the blinding lights of Shaping Sound, and finally we got caught up in the yarns of Rebecca Sadowski’s The Sash Maker […]

  • Season 4 Episode 10

    14/01/2018

    Paul and Fawnda start the new year with some serious theatre in the Tony-award winning, Pulitzer Prize-nominated The Humans at the Citadel.
