S5 Ep7: SPOTLIGHT! on Edward G. Excaliber - Winner of the 2024 Theatre Theater Playwright Award
Edward G. Excaliber is a Los Angeles-based, Miami-born Puerto Rican writer, a sci-fi/fantasy videogaming nerd who blends his darkly comedic, self-deprecating voice with emotionally sincere characters, focusing on grounded, personal stories in elevated genre worlds. The youngest of three, his passion for writing began at an early age, writing comic books, poems and lyrics, shifting to narrative storytelling in college, where he wrote and directed numerous stage plays. He transitioned to writing for film and television while attending the AFI Conservatory, earning an MFA in Screenwriting. Edward is an alum of the NBC Writers on the Verge and National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) writing programs. In 2024, Edward won the Hollywood Fringe Festival Theatre Theater Playwright Award for a one-act farce he penned. He’s written episodes of Parcast’s lost treasure podcast series, Gone. He’s worked as a story analyst for Sony Pictures, Amblin, Austin Film Festival and Coverfly. Edward has twice been selected for the Read Latinx Initiative. Currently, Edward’s learning to play guitar, practicing amateur archery and developing new projects. socials: (IG) @edwardexcaliber / @638play

S5 Ep3: Escape Rooms! w/ Pam Quinn
Joined by Pam Quinn
We escaped a rooooom!!!
Bailey is far away.
Fringe has begun!
Three Los Angeles based theatre makers dissect, debate and disseminate works of the great Playwrights as well as anything and everything of, or related to, the art of Theatre.
Main Feed:
Each week the nerds get together and discuss 3 plays by a specific playwright as well as their cultural impact and context in the hosts' own personal lives. Also they spotlight the beautifully burgeoning LA Theatre Scene as it grows into the new home for experimental theatre makers.
Bonus Series:
Between each Playwright a bonus series called Theatre Theater 'N Stuff! provides a break from play reading. The nerds get to choose a theatre adjacent topic for discussion.
Always interesting, sometimes vulgar and never too serious these three friends may just convince you to like reading plays again.
