I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.
— Pablo Picasso
There’s no doubt that theatre — whether a West End London musical, a performance of Hamlet at Stratford, or a one-act comedy performed by a plucky group of amateurs in a small-town auditorium — can be transformative.
On today’s show I sit down with actor and director Lynn van Deursen, who has blessed the tiny mountain village of Kaslo with many outstanding theatrical moments over the years. We talk about her effort to put together a community theatre group, the recent plays staged at Kaslo’s venerable Langham Theatre, and chat about Lynn’s take on theatre generally, and Kaslo community theatre in particular.
If you like your entertainment live and in person, you don’t have to be a Kaslo resident to enjoy our conversation!
