w/Alex Kudrna-Backyard Dream Productions

As a young kid growing up on the northside of Kenosha, Alex Kudrna was already a producer – directing the neighbor kids on his backyard stage. He has grown up with a love for Kenosha and in 2016 purchased the Orpheum building in Downtown Kenosha – his goal is to bring Hollywood to Wisconsin and Kenosha via film industry tax incentives! Alex has launched the O-Coworking Space in the Orpheum building and, with the help of producer Ken Stouffer, brought Backyard Dream Productions  to reality. Backyard Dream specializes in local video production and can help you bring your advertising to the next level! Visit the Backyard Dream Studios page here! If you or someone you know is in need of an independent working space, for a day, for a week, or something more long-term, check out the O-Coworking Space in the Orpheum building at 5819 Sixth Ave. Check out their website here for more info! Special thanks to these great sponsors!ROAR – Be heard Lucci’s Grandview 6929 39th Ave Shannyn Franklin – ReMax Newport Elite Franks Diner, 508 58th St Aason Hunzinger of AHDidIt Union Park Tavern, 4520 Eighth Ave. Wink Beauty Boutique, 10909 Sheridan Rd Hydn Cheese Public Craft Brewing Company 628 58th St Get your Ktown Connects merchandise at The Lettering Machine, 725 50th St. Drop us an email at [email protected] Find us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter – and at ktownconnects.com Theme song performed by Dropping Daisies, written by James “Red” McLeod. This episode was recorded on December 4, 2023 at the Ktown Connects recording studio in Downtown Kenosha! Your hosts are Donny Stancato and Jason Hedman Get additional episodes early and ad-free, along with bonus material with this week’s guest and more great exclusive material by becoming a patreon supporter!
