When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

When you hear him speak of his themes, intentions, and goals, you may be even more enticed to see his work brought to life on the RLTP stage.…

She worked at nearly every professional theater, directed, taught acting, and produced shows for her own company. Though her name may not be as prominent around town as it used to be, she recently found herself with a suddenly busy calendar, and this talented artist took the time to look back on her career and look forward to the future.…
1 Fernanda Lastra - Assistant and Cover Conductor, and Diversity Fellow for the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra 56:40
Highly visible among the BPO faithful, Fernanda Lastra can be seen throughout western New York conducting Music for Youth concerts, Summer Series concerts, and various community engagement performances. Although truly comfortable within the confines of Kleinhans Music Hall, her tenure there ends with the conclusion of this season. Therefore, before her departure, Peter was anxious to spread her story of travel and triumph since her arrival from her home in Argentina.…

What's the story of the self-proclaimed termination of his previous artistic activities? He sat down with Peter to tell how it all began, and why it led to this decision to pursue a different brand of art.…
The words “needs no introduction” apply most particularly to MaryKate O’Connell. Well known and loved throughout the Buffalo theater community, her roots go back to nearly the beginning of its heyday, and her influence will continue for many years to come. In fact, it was her family who helped save the glorious building that has become the Shea’s Buffalo Theater and its two additional performance spaces.

And recently, he has tried his hand at play-writing, as well. How this young man came to be known as “Buffalo’s theater poet” is revealed in a fascinating conversation in this episode. But first, Michelle Holden returns to talk with Peter about audience reaction to RLTP’s current show Witch on another segment of “Off-Book on Off Road.”…
Though Wendy Hall was quickly accepted as a "Buffalo-gal," she is actually a transplant from the west coast who has adapted to our ways and adopted our area as her own. Prolific in many aspects of onstage performance, she has been seen in musicals, dramas, and comedies throughout the local theater scene. She is an Artie award winning actor who brings her heart and soul to the current production of Witch on the RLTP stage, but first she sits down with Peter to talk about how she found us and how happy she is that she did! Before this, however, good friend Don Gervasi attempts to explain the rules of improv and how he has become one of its funniest practitioners as he promotes “Unscripted,” onstage every Wednesday performing hilarious comedy on whatever set exists at RLTP.…

As one of the dominant instructors of dance at that institution, he helped establish the reputation of the Zodiaque Dance Company and the nascent UB department of “Theatre and Dance.” Now, ready to celebrate the 50th anniversary of that dance troupe, he sat down to reminisce about his experiences, his career choices, and his love of teaching. But first, Buffalo actor David Lundy explains his decision to tackle another difficult challenge in the upcoming one man show Remember This: The Lesson of Jan Karski for the Jewish Repertory Theater.…

But first, Constance Caldwell talks about her new television show spotlighting local musicians: Jazz Scene Buffalo!…
For the start of this new season, choosing a guest was an easy decision: Greg Gjurich plays Louie de Rougemont, the lead character in RLTP’s first show, Shipwrecked! - An Entertainment , so having him sit down with Peter seemed obvious. But he is also a fascinating guy with a great back story, a delightful sense of humor, and a charming personality!

Though rarely appreciated by the average audience member, the costume designer is often the unsung hero of a production. Though one of the busiest in the city, designer Jenna Damberger managed to take time out from her incredible work planning the quick changes in RLTP’s recent show The (Curious Case of the) Watson Intelligence to sit down and talk about how she started, what she has accomplished so far, and where she plans to go!…
