A Little Too Maybe Part Three

Like a record scratching to a stop, in-person classes at Carleton University came to an abrupt halt in March 2020. Six months later Rachel Stanley, Jadi Genita, and Drew Torresan, all enrolled in a theatre production seminar, found themselves facing a challenge. The main assignment was to create and perform a play, but due to pandemic restrictions, they would not be able to meet to write and rehearse, let alone stage a show in front of a live audience. Thankfully, Prof. Janne Cleveland, who co-ordinates the University’s Drama Studies program, and instructor Rebecca Benson contacted CKCU FM and found a unique solution. The result — A Little Too Maybe, Carleton’s first-ever radio play, about a couple falling out of love —will air on the campus-based community station CKCU, along with a three-part documentary about how the project came together. A Little Too Maybe: A Pandemic Radio Play' is a three-part radio documentary series produced by Dylan Hunter, story produced and written by Nickie Shobeiry, narrated by John Koensgen, with music by Diego Guzman.
