About Behind The Curtain

An official media podcast from Mill Valley’s Curtain Theatre, giving listeners a “behind-the-scenes” peek of production preparation, inspiration, and perhaps at times – exasperation. All from our love for great drama, and in the belief that the gathering of audience and artists around great plays adds immeasurably to the quality of life in the community.

What Dreams Are Made Of

Our first podcast episode is with Curtain Theatre’s Dramaturg, Peter Bradbury. Peter helps us dive into the world of Midsummer Night’s Dream. We learn of the mythological and literary sources that inspired Shakespeare. Bradbury explains how the play’s structure—four interwoven plots involving young lovers, bumbling craftsmen, a royal wedding, and mischievous fairies—creates a complex yet harmonious tapestry. And, finally, we also hear that the play’s exploration of love, identity, and the dance between reality and dreams resonates just as much now as it did back in Shakespeare’s day. It’s like a reminder that some things—like the ups and downs of love—never really change, no matter how much time goes by. So, grab a cup of tea, settle into your favorite chair, and tune in to the Curtain Theatre Podcast. Let Peter Bradbury take you on a journey through the magical, whimsical world of A Midsummer Night’s Dream—where love, dreams, and a little bit of fairy dust make life all the more enchanting. #curtaintheatre #shakespeare #millvalley #midsummernightsdream #theatre #communitytheater

A Perfect Storm

Our second episode; Nic Moore (Romeo) speaks with the director of Romeo + Juliet, Stephen Beecroft. In this episode, Stephen shares about what drew him to directing for The Curtain Theatre, and a bit of his thought and vision of “the perfect storm” for the tragic, and hopefully cathartic, romance of Romeo and Juliet. You’ll learn how a trip to Italy sparks the idea for Stephen to bring out the development of the other characters of the story, and the environment itself, play into the “time and chance” of the disfunctional environment the young lovers are attempting to blossom in. Romeo and Juliet are the quiet eye of a raging hurricane; and the eventual outcome… is hope. #curtaintheatre #shakespeare #millvalley #romeoandjuliet #theatre #communitytheater

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
