A month-by-month review of 2024, plus a chat with Leslie O’Carroll and Branden Smith from Breckenridge Backstage Theatre
In this episode of the OnStage Colorado Podcast, hosts Toni Tresca and Alex Miller take a walk down memory lane and review some of the big stories of the year. From some theatres closing to others expanding, new plays, exciting playwrights and lots more, we touch on every month of an eventful year in theatre.
Later in the episode, Alex catches up with Leslie O’Carroll and Branden Smith, who are co-directing a production of Every Christmas Story Ever Told at the Breckenridge Backstage Theatre this month. Leslie is a well-known face on Colorado stages, and here she’s lending her comic chops from the director’s chair with this high-speed spoof along with Branden, BBT’s creative producer.
