2024 SiWC Michael Slade’s SHOCK Theater!

Greetings Outlander fans!🤗

Last Friday evening at SiWC, we were treated to Michael Slade’s Shock Theater! This slap-stick event, written by Michael, has been an ongoing feature of the conference for the past 17 years. Being a great sport, Diana has participated every year since its inception! 🤩

Shock Theater  is a spooky and spectacular take on a radio play, “complete with show-stopping twists, unexpected turns, and delightfully devious foley sound effects.” This year’s production was “The Fly!!!” 🪰

Michael is the only one who sees the the script ahead of time; no one else will have seen their parts. Thus, they perform more or less “on the fly.!” 😜

For those too young, the original “The Fly” was a 1958 black and white film starring Vincent Price and a host of other actors you probably have never heard of. 😉

This year’s presentation was as silly as ever. It portrays the story of Frank Randall who engineers  a time transport machine and Diana as Claire Randall, devoted wife. Frank accidentally transports himself with a fly in the machine! Molecules intermix so Frank emerges from the device with a fly hand and head and the fly ends up with a human head and hand. 🪰

Follow this meandering and entertaining story if you dare! 👹

Warning! A volunteer screams loudly about four times in the video, so be prepared! 👂

The deeply grateful,

Outlanderbts Panel at 2021 Wizard World Chicago

Our turn came this afternoon at Wzard World, Chicago, as the Outlanderbts lasses met with like-minded fans for a chance to discuss all things Outlander. Fearless leader Courtney Williams, Antoinette Simmons, and moi pressed on without Dr. Catherine Harmon who was attending a medical conference. We missed her very much!

Today’s topic was a discussion of book six, “A Breath of Snow and Ashes,” interwoven with speculation about Season six.  As you can surmise from the following video, we each have our own viewpoints and we enjoyed those of the audience who were invited to participate at any time.

Needless to say,  everyone is READY for S6.  It has been a very long, dry droughtlander! 🥵

This is our panel discussion. Hope you enjoy it.

 

The deeply grateful,
