À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Sam Pinkleton is the Tony Award-winning director of Oh, Mary! and the 9-time Tony Award-nominated revival of Richard O'Brien's The Rocky Horror Show on Broadway at Studio 54. His work as a director also includes Josh Sharp's TA-DA!, Morgan Bassichis’ Can I Be Frank?, Noah Diaz’ You Will Get Sick, The Wizard of Oz, Elizabeth Swados’ Runaways, Head Over Heels (with Jenny Koons), La Cage Aux Folles, and UNTITLED DANCESHOWPARTYTHING (with Ani Taj).

His film/TV work includes Dying for Sex and the musical The End, starring Tilda Swinton. His upcoming projects include the participatory Scottish dance musical Ceilidh and You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.
On this episode, Sam discusses the deliciously Dionysian alchemy of Rocky Horror, his blending of stagecraft and witchcraft, and why theatre is collective magic in action.
Pam also talks about excavating both personal and historical roots of theatrical magic, and answers a listener question about conjuring supernatural support for a canine familiar.
