John Moyer from Kitchener’s Backyard Theatre on Coral FM

Backyard Theatre

 

John Moyer is an actor/ producer from Kitchener’s Backyard’s Theatre – a locally based theatre company who likes to present “stories from beneath your feet”…… Nowhere, Ontario written by (John’s wife) Kathleen Cleland Moyer, is one of their most successful productions to date.
And as actor/ producer and local history teacher, you could call John Moyer Backyard Theatre’s own Triple Threat!
Due to popular demand a remount of Nowhere, Ontario was presented at the Conrad Centre in downtown Kitchener.

This play literally takes place right in the Victoria Park Neighborhood 100 years ago, during the Great War when Kitchener was called Berlin. Cleland Moyer’s poignant piece, (with a touch of Vaudeville as innovative comic device) chronicles the ravages of war be it on the battlefield or right in your own backyard. Case in point – I live on Queen Street South near Queen and Courtland where the 118th Battalion was stationed during those very uncertain times.
Said one younger audience member after seeing Nowhere, Ontario – “I never really understood war until I saw this play.”

Steve Toms from Blues Band Daddy Long Legs on Coral FM

Steve Toms Kitchener’s fave lefty bass playing dude!

It was a pleasure to have bassist Steve Toms from Daddy Long Legs join me recently for a great radio chat and a playlist which included music from many of Steve’s personal faves. Once again, I got the chance to listen and learn more not only about the best of the blues, but more about the region’s best blues boys who have redefined the sound of the blues – to me DDL is kinda like garage skiffle blues rock rhythm with a soupcon of soul – sometimes bat ass crazy, sometimes reeeeal hurtin’ ….

John Tutt from The Princess Cinema profiles Canada Film Days 2013!

There is nothing I love more than discussing movies. It’s always a great pleasure when John Tutt comes to visit me anytime but especially when John discusses the movies of Canada Film Days because he introduces me to some of the finest films Canada has to offer. This year the Festival runs May 2 to May 8 at The Original Princess, or what I like to call The Princess Mother!

Once again, John has found another superb collection of films for this festival now in its seventh year. The themes are very timely from cyber bullying (Blackbird) to facing the challenges of serious illness where age knows no bounds (Still Mine, Foreverland) the plight of the homeless (Hum and Strum), the unspeakable anguish of war (Fight Like Children, Die Like Soldiers/ Rebelle).
John has partnered with several community organizations to help present this fabulous festival playbill. There will be directors, actors and producers in attendance, with the opening night gala at Ethel’s! If you are a film junkie like me, this is a don’t miss event. John is a mastermind at finding cinematic gems. And thanks to him, I have discovered many fine Canadian movies and I am thrilled to discover more….

Buy the tickets, grab the brown bag popcorn and enjoy the cinematic ride. – Coral FM

Amanda Kind as The Witch, Moira King and Aaron Balzer as The Bakers!

Actors Harrison Smith and Jonathan Schiller joined me for a chat about KWMP’s Into the Woods – one of the most beloved Stephen Sondheim musicals. I saw the show at The Regsitry Theatre and it was great. Kudos to Amanda Kind as The Witch! I hope all of Sondheim’s music resonates in our cultural consciousnesses Ever After! – Tee Hee Coral FM.
