Today, June 5th, seven-time Emmy Award winning star, Ed Asner (Lou Grant on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "Lou Grant") will be interviewed on "Theatre Chat and This and That" from Brooksville, Fla.

In just three months since its March 6th debut, "Theatre Chat and This 'n That" has won a national following on the internet, interviewing both local and nationally-known guests, while simultaneously broadcasting from independent radio station WWJB, and on the world wide web. The show is produced from beautiful, downtown Brooksville, Florida: a small southern town with a big appetite for the arts.

Nationally recognized guests have included Broadway, Film and Television stars:

Renee Lawless (now starring in Tyler Perry's new television drama on OWN, "The Haves and the Have Nots"), Eddie Mekka (Carmine "The Big Rugusa" on "Laverne and Shirley"), and, this Wednesday, June 5th, seven-time Emmy Award winning star, Ed Asner (Lou Grant on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "Lou Grant").

The show has also featured American Musical Theatre legends:

Baayork Lee (original Connie Wong in the Broadway debut of "A Chorus Line"), Lee Roy Reams, (Tony Award-nominated Broadway actor of "42nd Street"; distinguished choreographer and director), Christine Toy Johnson (Broadway performer); Randy Slovacek (noted Broadway dancer and choreographer), Richard Skipper (award-winning NYC performer and pop culture blogger) and Dee Etta Rowe (Broadway performer, "The Most Happy Fella" and "Nine," and PBS-televised "Sweeney Todd.")

Outrageously funny and legendary comedienne, Judy Tenuta is scheduled to appear in early July.

Produced and hosted by longtime Tampa Bay residents, Broadway actor/ director, Jimmy Ferraro, and radio host and author, Brenda Darnley Martin, "Theatre Chat and This 'n That" boasts an ever-growing theatre and entertainment following nationwide and has proven to be a great vehicle for both stars and producers.

Theatre Producer, Pat Julian says, "This show has proven itself to be a fabulous vehicle for not only shows and concerts that are currently touring, but for its ability to book shows in the future"..."The calls that you get from all over the country is really incredible!"
