SLINGS & ARROWS VIRTUAL REUNION

Trailer

Celebrate the critically-acclaimed, cult Canadian comedy Slings & Arrows series with a virtual reunion taped in October 2020, by ATX TV. The participants include cast and creators Bob Martin, Susan Coyne, Mark McKinney, Martha Burns, Luke Kirby and Paul Gross. Called "the single best TV show about theater ever made" by New Yorker's Emily Nussbaum (who moderated the panel), "absolutely addictive" (New York Times) and "outrageously entertaining" (NPR), Slings & Arrows mines dramatic and comic gold from the personal and professional crises of a dysfunctional theatre troupe. The backstage bedlam mirrors the onstage angst as each season transports us to one of three Shakespeare masterpieces - Hamlet, Macbeth, and King Lear. All three seasons of Slings & Arrows are streaming now on Acorn TV. (TV special, 2020)
