Anna Fernandez & Leah Berst - Actors

If there’s one thing better than sitting down with a talented young actor to do an interview, it’s having two! And that’s exactly what happened when Peter invited two lovely actors from the current RLTP show Ghost Brothers of Darkland County into the recording booth. Anna Fernandez and Leah Berst took turns chatting about their lives, their careers, and their future plans. It’s an episode that should not be missed!

Doug Weyand - Director, Choreographer, Actor & Marketing Director at MusicalFare

Doug Weyand has found himself nearly indispensable to many local theaters! Whether it be as an actor, a director, a choreographer, or a marketing director, his presence all but guarantees quality productions at any venue. As an ensemble member of Road Less Traveled, most of his “performances" have been behind the scenes, and that is brilliantly represented by his work as the director of RLTP’s current production of Ghost Brothers of Darkland County. Still, he took time out from a grueling rehearsal schedule to talk to Peter about this show, his life, and his many other projects.

Kyle LoConti - Director

One of the most delightful and beloved personalities in the Buffalo theater community began her career unconventionally and soon became a respected artisan in the field. When Kyle LoConti sat down with Peter, the dialogue flowed, the stories unfurled, and warmth permeated every minute. Two friends and colleagues could not have felt more comfortable.

Randy Kramer - Executive & Artistic Director of MusicalFare Theatre

When Randy Kramer left New York City to return to his home town, he couldn’t possibly have known that he would some day be the Executive Artistic Director of a theatrical company in residence at one of the most treasured venues in Buffalo: Shea’s 710 Theatre. Although his performance interests began with studying to be a professional pianist, he developed a love for musical theater and a skill set that resulted in marked successes composing, directing, and producing quality shows for the devoted and growing audiences at MusicalFare, his highly respected company. In this fascinating interview, he looks back at his first year downtown, and he looks ahead at what might still be!

Diane DiBernardo - Actor

Whether she’s designing and wearing ingenious make-up looks, standing front and center in her classroom, or gracing the stage of RLTP (and so many others), Diane DiBernardo is someone worth knowing, talking to, and hanging out with! In her current onstage persona, she starts off the play Exit Strategy with a bang…and the show flies even higher from there. She’s so busy that Peter felt lucky to persuade her to sit down for a chat in this fun episode.
