This week, Natasha Nadir chats with Winnipeg-based playwright Daphne Finlayson to talk about her play, FanAddict.
FanAddict by Daphne Finlayson focuses on the relationship between a young digital creator and fame. It examines our culture's obsession with online relevancy and what people are willing to do to get on the trending page - as well as what that fleeting fame does to a person's psyche.
