Discussion Opening April 11th and running through April 18th at the Pumphouse in Calgary, Misfit Theatre presents Guys & Dolls directed by Jeremy Walker. Kyle sits down with Jeremy, Nimue Nova the choreographer and Donna Pearson, producer, to talk about the struggle in bringing this larger than life 1950s Broadway Musical to life. Tickets: https://www.morpheustheatre.ca/?page_id=7805 About the Show: A co-production between MisFit Theatre YYC and Morpheus Theatre It's time to roll and beat those dice as the beloved musical takes a bow! A screwball romantic comedy, Guys and Dolls takes us into the heart of 1950s New York, as imagined by Damon Runyon and scored by Frank Loesser and includes toe-tapping musical theatre classics including "Sit Down, You're Rockin' The Boat" and "Luck Be a Lady". The story brings together a collection of colorful characters. First, there's Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight 'mission doll' out to reform the evil-doers of Times Square. Next up is Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love. Adelaide is a chronically ill nightclub performer whose condition is brought on by the fact she's been engaged to the same man for fourteen long years. And last but not least there's her devoted fiance Nathan Detroit, desperate as ever to find a spot for his world-renowned floating crap game! Guys and Dolls takes us from the heart of Times Square to the cafes of Havana, Cuba, and even into the sewers of New York City, but eventually everyone ends up right where they belong.

Today's guest is very much a member of the Damon Runyon school of characters. Charles Farrell is not only an accomplished jazz pianist, he has also been a key player in the boxing world for decades. From Floyd Patterson to Don King and scores of managers, promoters and celebrities to the fighters – both champs and bums – he knows as much about the “game” as anyone. Charles shares his insights in his new pseudo-memoir entitled, “The Legend of ‘Mitch Blood Green' and Other Boxing Essays.” One doesn't have to be a boxing fan or know much about pugilism to appreciate and enjoy his story!

Damon Runyon's retelling of an Epiphany story: Three Wise Guys

Palm Beach Santa Claus

We're decking the halls and looking for clues with three holiday-themed old time radio mysteries. Peter Lorre plans the perfect crime, but he may be undone by a surprise gift from his victim in "Back for Christmas" from Suspense (originally aired on CBS on December 23, 1943). Then, it's a tale from The Damon Runyon Theatre - "Dancing Dan's Christmas," the story of a small-time crook who lands in hot water during the holidays. Finally, Bob Bailey deals with a Santa who gets gifts instead of gives them and who may be marked for death in "Christmas in January" from Let George Do It (originally aired on CBS on January 29, 1951).

DAMON RUNYON THEATRE, Episode 53 Premiered Mar 8, 2024 "The Damon Runyon Theatre", a syndicated radio series from 1949 relating stories of New York's "guys and dolls" -- mobsters and dames, gamblers and frails, saints and sinners -- which newspaperman and sportswriter Damon Runyon colorfully brought to life in decades of short stories. They may have been gangsters, but they often had hearts of gold underneath - plus a unique present-tense way of speaking which has come to be known as "Runyonesque." The Damon Runyon Theatre recorded 52 charming half-hour versions of his stories, and those got writer Casey Keller (Beakman's World, The Love Boat) wanting more. So he's written a new episode, and Project Audion brings you the world premiere of his Runyonesque tale, "Ringside Rosie." Our transcontinental cast is captured live in performance, just like they did in 1949, for a delightful story about a doll who loved boxing, and the guy who loved her. Our cast includes: Duane Noch in New Jersey Don Paul in California Andy Hartson-Bowyer in Virginia Jacob Palka in Illinois Stanley Dyrector in California Paul Arbisi in Illinois Reg Platt in Texas Susan Platt in Texas Casey Keller in California with the production under the supervision of Larry Groebe in Texas

OK so the title of this episode is a little tongue in cheek but of course PTF and Nick start off by talking about the now stakes winner, Looms Boldly!They also look back at other racing from last weekend, go on a tangent about "inside information" and two-year-old racing, and take a first look at next weekend's big three-year-old races from Fair Grounds.
