Plus, our Top 10 Colorado Headliners for the week and an interview with Candace Joice and Josh Robinson with ‘Good People’ at Ouray’s UpstART Theatre


In this episode of the OnStage Colorado Podcast, hosts Alex Miller and Toni Tresca talk about Toni’s recent story in the Boulder Weekly about Actors’ Equity. The union has about 400 members in Colorado and around 13 Equity theatres. Membership has its pluses and minuses, and we get into what those are and more.

We’ll also check out this week’s Colorado Headliners — our Top 10 (or 11) most interesting shows or programs coming up around the state. This week’s Headliners (in no particular order) are:

1. Glenwood Vaudeville Revue

2. Waiting for Godot at Bas Bleu

3. Darkfield from Denver Center Off-Center

4. Something Rotten at Magic Circle Players

5. Impossible Things from The Catamounts

6. The Fever from Counterweight Theatre Lab

7. Fuenteovejuna at Wheat Ridge Theatre Company

8. In Celebration of Collaboration from Third Law Dance Theatre

9. Theatre Silco summer season

10. Rocky Horror from Elusive Ingredient at The Arts HUB

11. Rent at the Arts HUB

Later in the podcast, Alex catches up with Candace Joice and actor Josh Robinson. Candace is directing a production of David Lindsay-Abaire’s Boston-based dramedy Good People and Robinson plays the role of Mike.

The play runs May 31-June 3 at UpstART Theatre in Ouray.
