The SHOW SHOW: Kat Sandler, Tom McGee, and a Tipsy Fringe History

Created By Created By

The SHOW SHOW features aspiring hosts Ruth Goodwin (The Howland Company) and Liz Johnston (Bad Dog Theatre) as they interview theatre artists and comedians about life in Toronto as a performer, on their show, about shows.

Eager to conduct the greatest interview of all time, The SHOW SHOW will be a mishmash of various styles—one minute it’s a lip sync battle, the next it’s Theatre Brouhaha drunk in a living room. Directed by the incomparable Jacqueline Andrade.

Join us as we delve into the magical world of FRINGE THEATRE. In this episode, Dora-winner Kat Sandler and Tom McGee tell us—after a few (then many) drinks—the history of Fringe theatre.

Ruth and Liz are Toronto based performers who have been friends for far too long. Liz is an accomplished improviser and sketch comedian who performs regularly with Bad Dog Theatre and the Monkey Toast Players. Ruth works as actor and producer and is a founding member of The Howland Theatre Company. You can also catch them both on TV plugging the occasional Tim Horton’s Breakfast Wrap or Kit Kat bar. They get along great. Here is a horrible picture of them in high school. @Ruth_Goodwin @LizJohnston12

HELP SUPPORT US

Since you’re here, we have a small favour to ask. Intermission, created by The Company Theatre, has now reached the end of our funding agreement with the Metcalf Foundation.

We in no way want to wind down the theatre coverage we offer—in fact, we have big plans to grow and are committed to being a reliable platform for theatre artists and theatre lovers. But to help us get there, we need support. If everyone who reads Intermission, and who finds value in what we publish, chips in a bit, our future would be much more secure. Please consider donating so we can keep working hard to give you the theatre arts journalism that is needed and wanted.
