Greg surprised a bunch of the Moore Student Radio team with a celebrity guest during a tour of the Radio 1 Big Weekend studio in Liverpool. They had no clue Miley was about to appear live on screen. They didn't believe it was the real Miley Cyrus. There were a lot of emotional Hannah Montana fans in the room. Introducing Becky the Wasp Biologist. She wrote a song for the Edinburgh Fringe from the perspective of a wasp and we have the exclusive first play on Radio 1. Becky says they are misunderstood and she's rooting for all wasps. Apparently she's got a catalogue of songs about wasps. Watch this space. You heard it here first. Katie Thistleton and Vick Hope are off on maternity leave this summer so Jamie's wife Sophie is joining him on Radio 1 in the afternoons. She thinks she's the only person on the planet who can put up with him for 3 hours a day every day. It's live so wish them luck. Greg flossed his teeth with Charlie Hedges hair when they hugged at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Liverpool. Not weird at all. Now that's out there let's get on with ThursWAAAAHAAY business. What's making you wahhaahhhaay today? It's clumsy runner Nat's turn on Yesterday's Quiz. She wants to beat her husband Marcus, which TBH is a low bar. Flop Flips is probably the best answer to the question – what are flip flops called in Australia. (It's thongs). No spoilers here for All The Latest Things. IYKYK.

One-Act Play Collections - Book 7, Part 1 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 7 Overview: LibriVox's One-Act Play Collection 7 includes one-act plays in the public domain read by a variety of LibriVox members. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

The oft-requested episode is finally here, in which we watch what can only be described as a piece of outsider art: a zero-budget, zero-effort British gangster film made sometime between 2011 and 2017 by a woman named Sally Clack, who performs under the name Rapper Shampagne™. Dave Courtney is in this but you'd barely know it. This film caused Nate to have an existential crisis. We do not recommend viewing the film itself.

Praise for his previous theatrical work: 'I left this show with the chills and feeling just a bit shaken' (MumbleTheatre.uk). 'It is really smart stuff, elegantly exposing hypocrisy' (Stage). 'Fantastically funny' (EdFestMag.com). 'One of the most skilled and likeable comics... a deliciously joke-dense show' (Scotsman). We chat about Michael Caine's iconic delivery of the line ‘Never' and making a show about it, directing and producing, his new Edinburgh shows, authenticity and real self, almost quitting comedy, flow state, being good at comedy, saying no, posting quality plus plenty more!

One-Act Play Collections - Book 5, Part 2 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 5 Overview: This collection of ten one-act dramas features plays by James M. Barrie, Hereward Carrington, Marjorie Benton Cooke, Alice Gerstenberg, Susan Glaspell, George Cram Cook, St. John Hankin, George Middleton, David Pinski, Frederik Pohl, and an unknown Japanese author. The plays were coordinated by Arielle Lipshaw, Availle, Chuck Williamson, Todd, Peter Yearsley, Caprisha Page, Charlotte Duckett, and Amanda Friday. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

Liz Allen Buries the Lede  Our season 5 closer is a real treat! We have an incredible guest, Liz Allen, improv performer, director, coach, teacher and guru Liz Allen. Liz has performed and coached improv for 32 years! She works primarily out of iO in Chicago, (This is a big deal people!) but she has performed and coached improv all over the world, notably at the Edinburgh Fringe and, oh, by the way, she coached The Commune, the improv ensemble in Mike Birbiglia's 2016 feature film Don't Think Twice, NBD. (This actually blows Sarah's mind as Mike Birbiglia is her fave comedian.) Recently, Liz has been delving into solo show writing and performance, she recently performed her first solo show, Tonight I Am My Mother, and is completing her next solo show, There Were Signs, about her years in Las Vegas with her husband and their offspring. This is how Sarah met Liz, on an online solo show class with The Barrow Group, which is one good thing we can say about the pandemic. Okay, she sounds amazing, but how does she end up as a guest on Comedicine? Well, before discovering improv, Liz was a mechanical engineer! What? She worked for fifteen years as a consulting engineer and pharmaceutical technical writer. One night, on a lark, she joined some friends seeing a show at The Second City in downtown Chicago…and Liz got bit by improv. Do engineering and improv mesh? You be the judge!  www.lizallenimprov.com lizallenimprov@comcast.net www.tonightiammymother.com  Thank you to our season 5 title sponsor, Scribenote! Scribenote is an AI-powered veterinary scribe that saves you hours of record-keeping every day, boosts clinic efficiency, and helps you leave work on time.  Promo code: COMEDICINE15 for 15% off Scribenote for 1 year Link: https://app.scribenote.com/auth/register?referralCode=Comedicine-Bonus (use this link to double the regular free trial usage!)Thanks for listening to Comedicine!

Send us a textLongtime-listening playwright Brad McEntire streamed into the Spotlight to discuss his experience and approach to the craft. We discuss the exercises and lessons from studying under Will Power at Southern Methodist University and the Dallas Theatre Center, playing with the rhythm of dialogue, what beginning playwrights don't do or practice, and whether or not you can achieve impossible stage directions with a small budget. We also delve into his background as a literary manager, his process of one-person shows and the difference between solo performances and personal stories, the one-person structure as well as playing with different structures, tackling solo long-form improv, staging your own one-person show and finding opportunities for them. We wrap things up with the flaws of rewriting on stage and his podcasts - The Cultivated Playwright and Brad McEntire Plays and - and the difficulty of monetization. Brad's energy is contagious and his insight is valuable. Enjoy!Brad McEntire is a playwright, solo performer, and stage director. He is the author of more than a dozen plays, including Que Sera Giant Monster, I Brought Home a Chupacabra, Dinosaur and Robot Stop a Train, Raspberry Fizz, Langdon the Seasonal Barista, I Have Angered a Great God and The Yeti in the Airport Lounge among others.

#560 One Ball and Boe - Richard is sad to note the death of a man who has fuelled and spoiled his erotic fantasies. His guest John Kearns, has finally been allowed into the Leicester Square Theatre on the fifth or sixth time on the pod - it's the thoughtful and measured John Kearns. In a return to endless old-school RHLSTPs it's a sprawling pod, covering very old tortoises, Raymond Briggs, Rich's dad giving a talk at the BFI, the effects of the Taskmaster bounce (or plunge in Rich's case), rumours about Top Coppers and much more. Too much more. Gloriously too much more.See RHLSTP at the Edinburgh Fringe https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/richard-herring-rhlstpSee Richard's tour http://richardherring.com/ballback/tourSee RHLSTP live http://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELSee extra content at our WEBSITE Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp.

One-Act Play Collections - Book 4, Part 2 Title: One-Act Play Collections - Volume 4 Overview: This collection of twelve one-act dramas features plays by James Allen, John Kendrick Bangs, Gordon Bottomley, Charles Dickens, Lord Dunsany, Susan Glaspell, George Bernard Shaw, August Strindberg, Marion Craig Wentworth, and William Butler Yeats. A one-act play is a play that has only one act and is distinct from plays that occur over several acts. One-act plays may consist of one or more scenes. The 20-40 minute play has emerged as a popular subgenre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. One-act plays make up the overwhelming majority of Fringe Festival shows including at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of recorded Western drama: in ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example. The satyr play was a farcical short work that came after a trilogy of multi-act serious drama plays. A few notable examples of one-act plays emerged before the 19th century including various versions of the Everyman play and works by Moliere and Calderon. One act plays became more common in the 19th century and is now a standard part of repertory theatre and fringe festivals.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Penelope Holt, author of the book The Angel Scroll. Penelope was born and educated in England and now lives in New York. She is a novelist, playwright, business writer, and marketing executive, whose work has been performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, York Arts Center, and New York's American Folk Theater. In addition to writing fiction, The Angel Scroll, and The Apple, based on the controversial Herman Rosenblat Holocaust romance, Holt is a prolific writer, editor, and co-author of non-fiction, including Singing God's Work, the story of the Harlem Gospel Choir, Emotional Intelligence at Work, and many other works. She is married with two children.   In my book review, I stated The Angel Scroll is a wonderful women's fiction mystery full of mysticism and romance. You are going to love Claire, a recently widowed painter who manages to paint a masterpiece well-beyond her abilities. Although the piece brings her fame, she feels like a fraud, having painted something that brings everyone else peace when it brings her nothing but sadness. Despite this, she can't bear to part with it.   Enter recently widowed antiquarian, Richard. He believes Claire's painting is one-third of an ancient Christian prophecy, and that this might explain Claire's recent psychic abilities. Before long, the two are on an adventure taking them to Jerusalem, Rome, Siena, Glastonbury Tor, and New England.   Within these pages, you'll find intrigue, passion, greed, love, wisdom, good, and evil - like a microcosm of the world we live in!

In today's episode we're joined by a visiting detective and their sidekick, as actor Laura Aikman popped into the studio with PC (pretty cute) French Bulldog Eric, who soon proved to be an indispensable member of the team. Laura starts off by telling us about an incident which quickly escalated into a caper involving a cast of thousands, before we are immersed into the world of the 1980s US Highschool, where Eric would have definitely been one of the popular kids. After all that, our listener crime makes us all believe we could hop a fence if we really had to, all we need is the power of gelato!The Drunk Women are LIVE all over the UK this summer ...You can see them at their London Residency in May and June.

Well look who's back in town! It's only writer, actor and comedian, Brona CTitley, who re-joins the force to share another crime story from her own life - and this time we hear that even in childhood, her crime solving smarts were sharp as hell. Detective Titley then aids and abets Hannah and Taylor in solving a criminal case from 1942, which throws up important questions such as, when is a balloon really a balloon? And are dolls really spies? Makes you think...Finally, we hear from a listener who encountered a crime on holiday, which could see Eeyore brought in for questioning.
