The Less Desirables Recorded in The Such-N-Such Media Studios at Liberty Plaza.

Tim and Bethany welcome guest Janel Boyd from Kernersville Little Theatre to talk about their upcoming production of The Great Gatsby. Janel explains who Kernersville Little Theatre is, where rehearsals and performances take place, and provides background on the straight-play adaptation by Simon Levy. She describes the 1920s costumes, the flapper styling, the men’s polo looks, and the photography that captures the period feel.

The conversation covers the cast, the production’s scale, and the story’s themes, including class division, social expectations, and the contrast between wealth and poverty. Janel talks about directing a large cast, her approach to character work, and how she balances honoring the original text with creative interpretation. She also shares how music, lighting, and staging help bring the world of Gatsby to life.

Tim and Bethany share their experiences with the book and films, discuss the story’s cultural relevance, and talk with Janel about her directing background, recent projects, and how she prepares for a show. The group also touches on theater traditions, actor coaching, and the teamwork required to bring a production from rehearsal to opening night.

Kernersville Little Theatre presents The Great Gatsby Performances at Kernersville Elementary School on September 18 and 19 at 7:30 PM, and on September 20 at 2:00 PM. And the September 25-27 weekend follows the same schedule.
