ho doesn’t love a good game show? (Especially when you’re not one of the contestants being put on the spot.) Thanks to a stellar lineup of local theater luminaries — Camille Gaston, Miguel Gastelum and Amalie Larsen — I had a blast taping my second annual TMR theater game show for “The Munro Review on CMAC.” The format features four fun games, including Name That Tune and “Monowrongs.” There’s a special guest appearance from the droll (and fiendishly prevaricating) Roger Christensen, who is currently appearing in Good Company’s “The Little Mermaid” (which runs through Sept. 10.) I’m definitely nominating him for a CMAC Emmy.
The competition was fierce and the talent impressive, but we did emerge with a winner — who received the coveted Donny Award. (Wait till you see how much CMAC spent on the trophy.) You’ll have to watch the episode to find out who won.
