Cultchcast: Shigematsu Shoots the Shit
This season, local favourite Tetsuro Shigematsu hosts a brand new Cultch podcast! Before he created some of your favourite shows (Empire of the Son, 1 Hour Photo, and Kuroko) Tetsuro was the host of CBC Radio One’s former afternoon series The Roundup. His experiences as an artist, writer, performer, and broadcaster make him the perfect host to have in-depth conversations with a variety of artists from our season.
Episode #5
with past Panto Kids!
Episode #6
with Panto Kids veterans, Mela & Maxine
International Insights
& Conversations
In what feels like another life as a performance curator, many of my days were spent researching work by going out and seeing it at events and festivals both here and around the world. Since March, we’ve all been grounded. It’s my fingers doing the walking, scrolling endlessly from my own living room.
Whether we’ve adjusted to Zoom or not, we must be physically isolated for the moment and it’s the virtual that is bringing us together. In our isolation, we need strategies to overcome our collective grief, to be reminded that we are not alone in what we are experiencing. Here are some gems I’ve come across that remind me how together we truly are and what is possible to accomplish with that in mind
