The Voice of Los Feliz (podcast) Episode 16

Skylight Theatre, Los Feliz Film Fest, Griffith Park Municipal Plunge, Raina Pratto

Spring has sprung and there is a definite buzz about Los Feliz … And brand new episode 16 of “The Voice of Los Feliz” is certainly no buzzkill!

Cameron Watson is the brand new Artistic Director of the Skylight Theatre Company. Host Phil Leirness sits down with him inside the Skylight Theatre to discuss what the future holds for this local treasure and how it could become a truly integral part of the community.

Submissions are still open for the 2nd annual Los Feliz Film Fest, which takes place April 26-28 at Skylight Theatre and the Barnsdall Gallery Theatre. Phil gets together with festival founder and executive director Vuk Mitrovic to discuss the latest and to find out how interested locals can still get involved and help out!

A recent open house (presented by Council District 4) revealed the up-to-date plans for the refurbishment and reopening of our local “Municipal Plunge”, the Griffith Park Pool. Friend of the show (and frequent collaborator) Debra Matlock, the president of the Los Feliz Improvement Association, attended that open house and provides a full report.

Phil is actually filing this month’s show from the nation’s capital, where he is enjoying family, Easter and the full bloom of the cherry blossoms. Before he left for the “other” coast, however, he got together with Los Feliz Neighborhood Council District D representative Raina Pratto at Alcove, for an in-depth conversation that is equal parts hilarious, thought-provoking and inspiring.

As always, musical director Jon Lawlor is dropping the killer tunes, and stalwart announcer Marc Hershon makes with the funny.
