So Scott got a great interview in for Soap Scum.
Yay for us, we are coming to a close this season only 4 more shows to go. It's been a rip roar of a 4th season...lots of guests, lots of laughs, and even a few tears. Anyways check out The Crown Royals before the end of may.

Chapter 7 of The Crown Royals as I remember it

Sidmund Cookiewhif, distant cousin to the Royal family - Matt Alden
For those if you who where unfortunate enough to miss the last show, we had a surprise guest from Die-Nasty which is the longest running live improvised Soap anywhere...Mr. Matt Alden. It's was one of the best shows of the season and we all had a blast.

This is a Cookiewhif sandwich...mmmm cookies

Admiral Shirley And High Chancellor of Whatchamacal commit a little murder

Doctor Charming and Shirley pondering the perfect ball...Take that however you want

honestly I can't even remember what went on, I just love the picture...they look so peaceful.

Guests are lined up and we are raring to go, so make sure too check out the remaining shows.

April 12Th, and April 26Th are the next two shows, which is fallowed by every Monday in May!

Scum One, Scum all!!

Scummers won't want to miss the next fancy chapter of pant-splitting laughter, as The Crown Royals welcome a guest list fit for a king! Mr. Geoff Hughes, whose incomparable reputation precedes him, Ms. Hilary(ous) Klassen of past fantabulous episodes, Mr. Tim Cranwill as Guest Narrator and, Mr. Matt Alden, writer of TV's 'Caution: May Contain Nuts', and cast member of Edmonton's legendary live soap 'Die-Nasty!' This Monday, 8:00 at the Park Theatre. A measly $5, and you are guaranteed to have a freakin' ball. Literally. And who doesn't like balls? (rhetorical)
New Scummers welcome!

Thank you everyone

So once again the amazing production team behind Soap Scum Presents took all the scraps we had and turned them into our amazing set. Here's a look at what Jamie, Beth, and Gillian all did for us...it's only a few of the many but I had to show some of them.



This is Jam he is my Brother/ Graphic designer, his wife Beth/graphic designer is behind the camera snapping this shot to produce a picture of the King. So they began with a picture.



Then Jamie sketched it out so Beth could paint it.



and then a little bit of Magic...



The eyes actually come out so we can spy on people.
Thanks Jamie and Beth Posters, hand bills, business cards, Logo's and Horses on sticks! You two are amazing.

Dad for your beautiful Mason Royal.

Mom as usual costumes and any other project we throw at you.

And of course Gillian...
Hey Gillian think you can build us a fireplace out of our old garage Styrofoam and one falling apart flat?



This is what we got.



to Darcy Johnson for lights
Jessica Ross for Sounds and sounds and more sound and lights...and funny giggles.

Scum City Ep.21- The Yugoslavicakian Connection

Craven MooreHead, The Brick, and Romeo Romero

A Romero Moment...

Nothin beats a good cup of jo in the morning. That's what I was tinkin when I spilled the sonvabich on my new white shirt. But eh, I won't fuss, cuz nobody knows about gettin rid of stains like I do.

I deal with alot of stains, mostly blood, yet still manage to keep myself looking pristeen and sharp every second of every day. Tha's on account of two tings. 1 - I always carry an extra shirt. You never know where you may get caught needin one. 2 - A very special ingredeant.

I've tried spit, sodee water, white wine and all the other old wives tales (no ma, I wasn't talkin BOUT YOU!) but nothin gets blood outta yer accoutrements better than good ole hairspray. A couple of squirts and an old rag will get it off yer leather coat and make it look like new. (incedently it also helps to get rid of any meat gleam if you bin standin next to Saliva) Same goes wit yer sneakers and trousers. As for my nice white shirts, a few sprays, toss a match at it and poof! Good bye everdence.

So there ya go. My tought of te day.


Last time on Soap Scum Presents...Scum City


Craven MooreHead has seized control of Scum City, with all the Heavy hitters out of the picture is there anyway of stopping the MooreHead reign of terror. He has put his daughters under survailance...someone has to keep an eye on those two.
His creepy twin daughters Hanna and Banana MooreHead lurk the dark shadows of Scum City taking advantage of all who cross their creepy creepy paths. Who knew you could actually date someone to death...Dream Date!

Romeo Romero loves his mother...will he use the money he and Saliva stole from VanDyke to spoil her in the manner she has become acustom, or will he attemp to win the love of the only women in Scum City he hasn't slept with Polly Parker Bowles.

Chuck Porter the Bounty Hunter was thrown a curve ball by creepy twin#2 when he was put down like an 7-10 split.

Fuzzie Dunlop who breezed into town like a smelly bag of urine, found work at Craven MooreHead's (fomally Vandyke's) and then proceeded to piss all over Scum City.

Scum City Ep.19 - The Cheese Stands Alone!

R-I-P Clyde VanDyke

Scum City recently said farewell to one of it's finest bags of scum, and also said hello to a few new interesting characters...

The unnaturally tanned Craven Moorehead is the new strong arm in town having bullied, blasted, or banged all opposition. In a city without a mayor or police who can stop this malevolent mastermind?

Craven Moorehead and "The Frenchman"

Say hello to Clyde VanDyke's ex-wife Beverly Vandyke

The tallest bounty hunter ever to enter into Scum City.

Perhaps the Creepiest addition to the City... The Creepy Moorehead twins

R-I-P Chip Brickowski


Join us this Monday for the next exciting episode of Soap Scum Presents...Scum City.
Same scummy time...same scummy station.

Scum City Ep.18 - The New Face of Scum City

Romeo Romero was last to be spotted with The MacDonald's Priest, Newly elected Mayor Flinn Flanagan who's body was found in the Rouge river...so what has become of Romeo? And what of his beloved mother?

Mason Sparks is still Scum City's most deadly coma patient.

Detective Brickowski is at odds with his inner and apparently outer demons...after droping his new found love interest off at the docks, he continues the search for his son Chip.

Clyde VanDyke set out to put an end Saliva Horkin once and for all when a battle of his bowls took him out of play...lucky for him Saliva came to his aid and saved him from his own inner filth...she did however leave him one kidney short, but hey who's counting.

Childe Dupris never recovered from her fatal gunshot wounds she recived during the shoot out at the freshly stalked Katchup Wearhouse. She will be sadly missed...funeral to be held this Monday at the Macdonald's Cathedral...her Ninja sword of doom will be remembered fondly.

Polly Parker-Bowls is a busy, busy girl...not only is she dating pretty much every available man in Scum City...she is still finding time to burn and pilage...and black mail...and host sing song seasions in the butcher's meat wagon. Busy, busy, busy...

Saliva Horkin convinced her ancient Ugoslavacockian rituals can bring Mason back...she has been diligently smearing the poor coma patient with mounds of Klick. Mounds and mounds.


Join us once again for an exciting episode of Scum City.
