Episode 35: Silhouettes

Bonnie Resinski was part of the creative force at the theatre at St. Francis University for 46 years, and a huge influence on my life.  In her spare time, she created an amazing one-woman show that chronicles 100 years of women’s fashion.  In this episode, she speaks about how fashion is a mix of style, technology, economics, and values. Bonnie makes a solid case for not wearing polyester  no matter how low the price of oil goes.  We also pause to do research and feed a cat.  I reveal why I can’t act while wearing Fruit of the Loom boxer-briefs, and we determine that perhaps the best copy of Dickens’ Christmas Carol would be bound in human skin.

There will be a booking email for Silhouettes posted on here soon, and somehow I don’t think anyone swears.  Not 100% on that though.
