Deep Dives & Light Laughs
Deep Dives & Light Laughs is a podcast about creating connection and how to build it. Hosted by Larry Carpman and Lindsay Purcell, this podcast started in the fall of 2023 after Lindsay continued to spark conversations with Larry at a popular coffee shop on the South Shore of Massachusetts, Slacktide Coffee Roasters. These regulars formed a friendship through easy conversations filled with deep dives and light laughs. Their goal is to use humor, stories, and mutual connections to explore getting to know people on a deeper level without asking the tired question, "So what do you do?" Listen to hear them interview some incredible people about what lights them up, how they cultivate connection, and IF that’s what they ended up doing for work...

"Break a Leg!"
Kyle Wrentz, Co-Founder and Artistic Director of Break a Leg Theater Works (affectionately known as "BAL"), joins Larry and Lindsay on the thirteenth episode of Deep Dives & Light Laughs. BAL is a non-profit children's theater that has been transforming the South Shore for the past nine years.
Kyle shares stories about the 40+ productions he's co-directed and 25+ guest artists from Broadway and Hollywood that he's collaborated with at BAL. Listen to hear how this non-profit proudly provides exceptional performing arts experiences for young performers (ages 8-18!) and what he sees blossom in kids in BAL. Kyle also tells us about his 22 years of professional acting experience, including performing in The Lion King on Broadway, where he understudied the roles of Simba and Scar, and being part of the acclaimed a cappella group American Vybe at Epcot. He also tells us about the prestigious awards ceremonies and events (read: televised!) that he's performed at!
