Podcasts about mustard seed theatre

After a brief hiatus, Lynn & Carl return to talk to Myah Gary about her new play, "Feminine Energy" from Mustard Seed Theatre at Fontbonne beginning this weekend. Then the new releases: Knock at the Cabin, You People, Shotgun Wedding, Poker Face and Triangle of Sadness. Plus a look at the Oscar noms and the Theatre Roundup - including SIX!

You can often find St. Louis artist and set designer Kristin Cassidy on the banks of the Mississippi River, picking up stones, metal and even animal bones. Cassidy has long used such items to create installation art. Now, as a set designer, she’s created a fantastical, 71-by-37-foot world, punctuated by colored lights. It’s the backdrop for Mustard Seed Theatre’s revival of its very first play, “Remnant” about a handful of survivors marking Christmas in a dystopian world. In our latest Cut & Paste podcast, we talk with Cassidy about designing the backdrop for the chaotic holiday and how being a child of divorce forged her fascination with objects. Look for new Cut & Paste (#cutpastestl) podcasts every few weeks on our website.
