Almost Live episode #159
All aboard!
We’re thrilled to launch our 5th season of Almost Live with Disability Tour Bus, a new radio play podcast written by Amy Amantea and Rena Cohen based on the lived experiences of wheelchair users in Vancouver.
Meet Shiloh, a young wheelchair-user, as they navigate their first day as a guide for “Funcouver Bus Tours”. Working alongside longtime employee and relentless dad-joker, Hugh, Shiloh struggles to stick to the “Funcouver” script when so much of “Canada’s most wheelchair-accessible city” is still so incredibly inaccessible. People and politics collide until a new passenger, Tess, comes aboard and offers unexpected common ground. The tour must go on! Because there’s someone special waiting for Tess at the end. At least she hopes there is.
Host Amy Amantea will be joined by co-author Rena Cohen for a pre-show introduction, post-show conversation and Q and A.
Presented in partnership with Realwheels Theatre
