AMT PODCAST!
AMT AFTER DARK WITH JOANIE & PETE is a brand new LIVE PODCAST - each week Joanie & Pete take to the AMT Theater stage to talk with a guest...and you never know where the conversation will go...it's AFTER DARK AFTER ALL!!
Produced by Meg Fierro
Joan Pelzer & Pete Dorton talk with Brogan Nelson about her life and her first cabaret show Fascinating Rhythmn which is being performed at AMT Theater on Friday August 22 at 7PM.
Fascinating Rhythm: An Evening of Jazz and Musical Theatre Classics is a cabaret filled with jazz standards, iconic musical theatre hits, silly stories, and special guest duets. It combines the classic energy of jazz with a modern vibe and sensibilities.
Brogan got the idea to put on this show after doing a series of performances for retirement homes over the holidays in her home town. These performances consisted of an hour set which combined holiday classics with jazz standards, and to watch how this music resonated with people was really magical. She hopes to bring that same magic to NYC!
Joanie & Pete chat with KELLI MAGUIRE about life, theater, and her upcoming one-woman show INVISIBLE FISH at AMT Theater September 10, 11, 12, 2025.
Have you ever wanted to run away to the Carnival?
Well…Step right up and see this fantastic new show develop! And watch the very talented performer Kelli Maguire as she pulls back the curtain and invites us into the magical world of the Carnival. She should know all about it, she grew up in one!
But truth be told she has been working on this her entire life...and you can bear witness to her story coming to life right on our AMT stage September 10, 11, 12!

This episode: Listen to Joanie and Pete talk with Angelica Gorga about life, New York City, and Lost and Found play.
Angelica Gorga (Playwright, Co Producer, LOST AND FOUND)
LOST AND FOUND takes place in a laundromat in Brooklyn, New York on August 14th, 2003 during one of the largest blackouts in US history. With no electricity coming back anytime soon, two strangers stick together during a time of darkness and uncertainty. They pass time drinking, playing games, and folding laundry which ultimately leads them to form a connection and reveal their own secrets and pasts, discovering they have more in common than they think. This play shows us what grief can do in the aftermath of loss and the powerful connections we create when showing up for one another.
