Tony nominee Lee Roy Reams (42nd Street, The Producers, Beauty and the Beast) shares backstage stories and songs in tribute to his late longtime friend, Hollywood icon Lauren Bacall. Reams performed alongside Bacall in the Broadway musical Applause and they remained friends until her death. Offstage she was still glamorous, but also a hoot!

Theater in Quarantine's trippy and hilarious The 7th Voyage of Egon Tichy [redux] is one of the breakout hits of this year's Under the Radar fest. But a virtual incarnation of the show, about a space traveler caught in a time loop who interacts with other iterations of himself, premiered online in 2020. You can check out this acclaimed pandemic experiment and many other Theater in Quarantine productions that fused live performance and prerecorded videos on the company's YouTube channel. I also highly recommend the troupe's haunting take on Nosferatu.
