On today’s podcast, I return to Plays and Players Theatre for another helping of 1812’s This Is The Week That Is! Celebrating the 13th production of this Philadelphia staple, I sit down with Justin Jain and Sean Close to talk about this year’s crazy and what to expect from the production and the recognition from The American Theatre Wing. We even weigh in on the Turkey Pardon. Stay Tuned!

This Is The Week That Is features returning writer/performers Sean Close, Dave Jadico, Justin Jain, and Rob Tucker, who also serves as Music Director. The production welcomes Philadelphia artist Tanaquil Márquez in her 1812 Productions debut. Márquez is a co-founder of Philadelphia's only bilingual theatre company, La Fábrica. Jennifer Childs completes the cast and returns to the director's chair along with collaborator Dan O'Neil. The This Is The Week That Is production team includes Don Montrey who returns as the show’s head news writer. 1812 veterans Lance Kniskern (scenic design) and Jorge Cousineau (video design) also return with Jillian Keys (costume design) and Paul Moffit (lighting design).
