Episode 9: "It Happens In A Heartbeat" by Elyzabeth Gregory Wilder

Last week, Lola, worried about CJ living alone at the theatre, invited them to stay with her family while the theatre struggled to find the best way to respond to the Black Lives Matter movement.  Next, we find Kaiser and Javier together as Kaiser receives news about his productions.

About the Podcast

In Good Company
A podcast for when life goes off-script presented by New Conservatory Theatre Center.
The drama onstage is nothing compared to what’s happening behind the scenes in this original episodic series. Bay City Theatre Artistic Director Lola Grant is performing the ultimate balancing act: running a small, LGBTQ+ theatre during a pandemic, keeping her family together, and producing a new play- that’s still missing an ending. A new kind of podcast for a different kind of world, New Conservatory Theatre Center’s "In Good Company" is a love letter to the resilience of art, artists, and the places they call “home”.

New Conservatory Theatre Center is San Francisco’s premier non-profit Queer and Allied theatre since 1981. Please consider donating at NCTCSF.ORG to support this work and additional programming while our theatre doors are closed.
