Described as everything from indie-roots to chamber-folk, West My Friend has an acoustic blend of instruments and four-part harmonies that challenges the conventions of popular music. West My Friend’s new album Quiet Hum is out now.

One Trunk Theatre, together with the West End Cultural Centre and UMFM 101.5 present 204FM, a comedy radio series performed live weekly with broadcast to follow. 
A new episode debuts every Tuesday! 

Directed by Andraea Sartison.
Written by Gwendolyn Collins, RobYn Slade, Toby Hughes, Ross McMillan and William Jordan. Performed by the writers, Gord Tanner and guest musicians.

Each performance will feature an opening set by a guest musical act, followed by the radio play with live sound foley. Each episode will be broadcast on UMFM Fridays at 7:00 p.m. 

In the early 1900s unfortunate mistakes bind Hermes, the god of travel, in gold. Now a statue, Hermes is passed from one continent to the next, bringing bad luck and a feeling of “stuckness” everywhere he goes. World powers unite and decide to send him to a place in the middle of nowhere… Winnipeg, Manitoba. 

Hermes has perched atop the Legislature and we call him the golden boy, a statue reeking a feeling a apathy and not letting anyone leave. Enter regular Winnipeggers who are sucked into an adventure exploring the city and meeting a cast of characters, from the Grey Nuns to Burton Cummings, who give them a new perspective. 

A hilarious roller coaster ride through time, winters, socials, and mysteries, '204FM' is a uniquely Winnipeg buffet, created by top Winnipeg comedians and theatre artists for the citizens of our one great city.
