About a week ago, Los Angeles radio personality Sheena Metal invited Ted and Cailin to come on her talk show and record a podcast talking about their process in creating and directing WAITLESS and the road to Edinburgh ... Aaaaand, since it's Ted and Cailin, they also got off on some pretty funny sidetracks! 
Check out Ted & Cailin's section of the program below; we did you a solid and cut the podcast down so that you can listen to it right here, right now!

From L to R: Jesse Fryery (Lighting Design), Royal Guard "Seymour", Veronica Mullins (Sound Design), Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, Juli Figueroa (Production Stage Manager), [second row] Kat Reinbold (Producer), & Cailin Harrison (Genius Playwright)
Now, if there's one thing we've learned about Ted, it's that he can charm the pants off just about anyone. Well, earlier this week he tried his wiles on the Queen, and while he said the encounter started off a bit stiff, he nevertheless convinced her to don what's bound to become the most fashionable wear at the Fringe ... additionally, rumor has it that Her Majesty has agreed to understudy as Shelly in case Jessica catches a chill ... 
Last weekend we reeled in the whole gang to see a run-through of the show. Everyone knows the best way to welcome the techies into the fold is to give them swag and introduce them to the Queen, so that's what we did. Thanks to Jesse and Veronica, WAITLESS is going to sound and look amazing! Although Veronica can't join us in Edinburgh (she keeps saying something about that new Disney park in Shanghai she's working on ... as if that's an excuse!), Jesse is coming along for the ride AND designing lights for three other shows at the Festival!

Our Executive Producer's long-anticipated BOXER SHORTS have arrived. We convinced actor Andrew Boyle to show off his dancin' legs and do a little modeling. We don't consider it exploitation. It's pure admiration.

Jessica became a redhead, Andrew tried the neon-shoes-with-suitcoat look (not your best fashion decision, Mr. Boyle, but we still love you!), and Ted Lange sent out the following team email:

Hey gang,
Well, we are on the road to discovery. I thought we had a really wonderful rehearsal today!!!
Thank you for your energy, your chemistry and your willingness to go for it.
I think we made great strides today and we are starting to get this bad boy under our belt.
Thank you. 
I am eager to get to our next rehearsal.



Love you all madly.

see you soon.
Ted L.
