#45: Frantic

Confabulation co-producer Francesca Esguerra joins us for this episode, where we don't exactly explore the theme of Frantic.... we just are. Featuring stories by Francesca Esguerra and Paul Van Dyck. Paul Van Dyck is a graduate of Queen’s University’s Specialized Studies in Stage and Screen Program, he is a writer, director, performer, producer, and sound designer based in Montreal, Toronto, and Los Angeles.

Paul's story was recorded at the June 2019 Summertime show at the Mainline theatre. Francesca Esguerra has been writing and creating ever since she became the self-elected editor of Canadian Girl Magazine at age 8. She is a graduate of Concordia’s Literature program. Currently a co-producer for Confabulation, Francesca has performed at the Centaur Theatre, The Wiggle Room, Yarn and Ottawa’s Arts Court.
