Exclusive Interview: Cody Barger of Tread The Boards ‘Black Comedy’

There’s nothing we love more than a theatre that’s willing to push the boundaries with the shows they’re telling, creating a unique experience for audiences. Tread the Boards, located in Waterford, MI, is doing just that with their production of Black Comedy. This show utilizes light and darkness to entice the senses of both those watching and the cast members on stage, making for a hilarious time for all parties involved. We recently spoke with one of the cast members, Cody Barger, about his time on this production!
In this exclusive Box Seat Babes interview, Cody Barger explains what makes Black Comedy such a unique show in the theatre landscape. He explores how the use of light and darkness has pushed him in his craft, and how pretending not to see his other cast members while interacting with them on stage has been the biggest challenge of this production. Interested to learn more about the story of Black Comedy or who Barger is playing in the narrative? Why has Tread the Boards split this one-act play into two parts? Give this exciting interview a listen to find out all this and more!
