About this episode

"As I Die and Wheeze" is a melodramatic comedy following the impact a death has on the family. Southern twin sisters, complete opposites, thought the sky was the limit until the death of their daddy. Now, the twins face debt, scheming suitors and a spicy, sharp tongued aunty. 

"As I Die and Wheeze" is showing at Planet Ant theater in Hamtramck through the end of the month. It is written by Katie McGraw and Maggie O’Reilly and directed by Bryan Lark. 

Maggie and Bryan joined us on The Metro to talk more about the play and the importance of theater and laughter right now.
