By Dan Letchworth

In this week’s episode of San Diego Magazine’s performing arts podcast, hosts Erin Glenny, Kim Cunningham, and Dan Letchworth share what’s new in the local theater scene, like a special Picasso at the Lapin Agile-themed edition of the Fleet Science Center’s event Two Scientists Walk Into a Bar.

Also, there’s plenty to rave about as we follow up last week’s interview with a discussion about performer-audience tension and the powerful themes at work in Moxie Theatre’s Blue Door.

Plus, we’re coming to you from behind the scenes at San Diego Opera, which has a ton of programming this season both in and outside the theater. General Director David Bennett shares some advice to help opera newbies approach the art form, and a special discount code on Falstaff tickets for Friday the 24th, just for podcast listeners!
