Welcome back to the 134th episode of The Cup which is our a weekly (give or take, TBD, these are unprecedented times) performing arts talk show presented by Cup of Hemlock Theatre. With the theatres on a come back we offer a mix of both reviews of live shows we've seen and continued reviews of prophet productions! For our 134th episode we have our latest instalment of our series 'Screened Plays'. This time we return to 18th century Vienna with an episode all about the 1984 film adaptation of Amadeus, directed by Miloš Forman and adapted by Peter Shaffer from his 1979 stage play! Enjoy as host and Co-Artistic Producer Mackenzie Horner along with Ryan Borochovitz, Sarah Hime and Andrew Pawarroo breakdown their thoughts on the differences between the director's vs theatrical release version of the film and if the Oscars were correct in bequeathing the Best Actor Award to F. Murray Abraham for his portrayal of Salieri over Tom Hulce's performance as Mozart.
