Well, well, well… look who’s back in the cage. 💋🪶
19 years ago, our very first Za Za took the stage alongside Georges—and made a little history of his own. Do you recognize that face in the first photograph? It’s our Executive Director Tim McGhee!

… and now there’s a new Za Za ready to strut into the spotlight tonight. Welcome to the stage Ryan Devoe! Same cage. New feathers. 19 years of fabulous memories in between.
Tonight, we open the doors again—and darling, we’ve been waiting 19 years to serve it up this fabulous.
Welcome back, La Cage aux Folles. Let the feathers fly. 🪶✨🎭

🚨 CALLING ALL BANDS 🚨

Battle of the Bands is our chance to put some of that talent front and center! It's a shot at a new audience, a set on a big stage, and an evening focused on platforming the creative community that makes this area so much fun to be part of.

Our selection committee will choose 8 bands to compete, each performing a set of up to 10 minutes. A panel of judges featuring well-known names from around the area, combined with an audience vote, will determine 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.

🎙️ NOW LISTEN… WE’RE NEW TO THIS. 😆

Did the moderator (our lovely marketing guru) really just call our season opener the “**** opener”? 😜 Did Tim just casually drop some news that takes us all the way up to North Myrtle? 👀 And Brock… our EDITS. He may seem quiet at first, but just wait. He’s the one you REALLY need to watch when it comes to letting the cat out of the bag. 😂

Welcome to BACKSTAGE BUZZ, the Main Street Theatre podcast where apparently anything can happen… including things we probably shouldn’t say out loud. 🎭☕️

Listen, if you can’t have a little fun with live theatre, backstage chaos, questionable editing decisions, and the occasional accidental spoiler… then what are we even doing here?!

And speaking of questionable decisions… we’re officially on Spotify! 🎧

Now, we have discovered a tiny little problem. There are, apparently, OTHER podcasts named Backstage Buzz. 😳
We are APPALLED. 😂

To think we weren’t the first people on Earth to come up with this incredibly clever and original name?! The audacity.

So maybe we’ll let our listeners—when we actually have some—help us come up with a new name.

Or maybe we won’t. We’re still deciding. 🤷‍♀️

But seriously… give us a listen. Give us a chance, my fellow thespians! ❤️🎭

If you want the latest and greatest with behind-the-curtain tea ☕️, cast interviews, director spotlights, backstage stories, upcoming show scoop, and the occasional “WAIT… DID TIM JUST ANNOUNCE SOMETHING?” moment…

👉 THIS is your channel.

We’re going to strive to bring you a new episode at least once a week. Operative word: STRIVE. 😆

So hit Spotify, give Backstage Buzz a listen, and come hang out with us behind the curtain.

We promise nothing…. 🎙️🎭
