Keith Price's Curtain Call

My international cup ran over when the amazing Sven Ratzke stopped by the studios in the middle of his worldwide tour, HOMME FATALE, to chat with me. He visited me last year during his STARMAN CD tour, and we laughed and bonded in such a great way that I had to have him again. He is so much fun, and his new show pushes your boundaries, and He LOVES it. Please enjoy my conversation with the amazing Sven Ratzke.

I recently went to a press event for an upcoming holiday show that will be nothing like you expect. It's called "Who's Holiday", written by Matthew Lombardo, directed by Carl Andresss, and starring the insanely fabulous and fierce, Olivier Award winning comic actress, singer, dancer, Lesli Margherita. I had the great fortune to sit with them and talk about this insanely funny take on the popular children's character, Cyndi Lou Who. After LOTS of litigation, Mr. Lombardo can now present this show which takes Cyndi 40 years into the future, and YES, she is having a bit of a time with life. Check out my conversations with the creatives and Queen Lesli by clicking on the picture of them.
