The BSR Podcast: talking with Fly Me to the Moon star Susan McKey
Darnelle Radford
In this BSR Podcast conversation, actor Susan McKey dives deep into her history with People's Light, which was born at Media's Hedgerow Theatre Company. Did you know Hedgerow has been operating for 103 years? McKey appears in the two-hander opening Hedgerow's 2025-25 season, Fly Me to the Moon, by Irish playwright Marie Jones.
The play is so surprising, engaging, and funny, McKey says, that she refuses to reveal the plot for our listeners. So this is a spoiler-free conversation that'll make you want to book your seats. The show follows care workers Frances and Loretta, who arrive for a routine visit with their elderly patient, Davey McGee. You'll have to discover what happens next for yourself, but McKey describes one reaction from a gentleman she noticed in the front row.
Fly Me to the Moon runs through November 2, 2025. Get your tickets now.
