Trading since August 2020

Hey, it's me. Feel free to call me Hester! I used to trade under a different user, so if I seem familiar that is why. I decided to choose an alias based on my favourite show, If/Then, instead of having a general non-musical one. I'm going for completionism of the show, despite how futile it might be. Thanks to MozartWasCrazy who helped me pick out this name, made the avatar, and made the logo!

​

Disclaimers:

  • I don't listen/watch everything I have, therefore there could be inaccuracies in my listings. Likewise I can only vouch for the quality of anything with Willow's Tea underneath the notes. Please keep in mind it is my personal opinion. 

  • I tend to copy notes if something doesn't have official notes and it's about the quality of the audio.

  • I was in a very bad habit of splitting tracked & untracked audios form encora and duplicating all the files like cast notes or included videos. Working on fixing this. If you request audios (not videos) in different formats I will send both links. I still trade videos in different formats 1:1 due to space and as those are often how they are released too. 

Status:

TRADES*: Open, preference towards smaller trades
TRACKING: Open

WEBSITE BUILDING: Ask; case by case.

*My masters remain tradeable through me, however, I may be more choosy when status closed or limted.

Legend:

Bold: show - location - date (matinee) (preview) (highlights) (master)

Underline: s/b, s/w, u/s, t/r, e/c, g/p, or alt

NFT/NFS/No gifting: Master-requested no trading, gifting, or selling. NFT includes the "No gifting" & "NFS".

Gifting upon request: No trade required, I'll send a link asap. Master-requested.

Limited trades: Traded at a higher ratio as indicated by the master. Generally 2:1, sometimes 3:1.

NOTES: Notes from the master/trader I received this from, or the general encora notes. Sometimes a mix of both.

WILLOW'S TEA: a review written by me of boots I've listened/watched. Feel free to add in your notes.

tick... tick... BOOM! - TotoToo Theatre (Ottawa, ON) - October, 2023 (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Gladstone Theatre

Format: MP3 (tracked & untracked) [465MB]

Cast: James Maxwell Pettifer (Jon), Andrew Portolesi (Michael), Ainslie Moors (Susan)

Notes: Double cast, I'm fairly sure this cast (Boom) was the one I saw. Recorded on an external audio recorder.


The Great Gatsby - The University of Ottawa Theatre Club - November 10, 2023 (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Gladstone Theatre

Format: MP3 (untracked) [166MB]

Cast: Andrew Lemieux (Nick Carraway), Congrad Svendsen (Jay Gatsby), Sabine Duknie (u/s Daisy Buchanan), Richard Parson (u/s Tom Buchanan), Amia Mohamed (u/s Jordan Baker), Mariana Gomez (Myrtle Wilson), Claudia Capicotto (Catherine), Owen Lamont (George Wilson), Valmik Duvadie (Meyer Wolfsheim), Pippin Sparrow (Mr. Gatz), Abby Peters (Theda Barra), Nora Hesselink, Alana Malanga, Aro Salib, Sofia Gonzales-Cappuccino

Notes: Recorded on an external audio recorder. Not 100% on the understudies as there was no announcement, this was done by eyes. Unsure which adaptation of the book this is, but it's a play.


Mary Poppins - Orpheus Musical Theatre (Ottawa, ON) - November 19, 2023 (Matinee) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Meridian Theatres @ Centerpoint Mainstage

Format: MP3 (tracked & untracked) [712MB]

Moore (Katie Nanna), TL Rader (Mrs. Corry), Jim Tanner (Admiral Boom), Alison Foley (Miss Lark), Pheobe Stassen (Valentine), James Baxter (Policeman), Karsten Skeries (Von Hussler), Laurence Stassen (Northbrook), Amanuel Abebe, Estella Aversa, Nicole Boyle, Cynthia Bradford, Hayden Chesser, Keppy Fuoco, Jesse Gervais-Weedmark, David Lurie, Danielle McDonald, Katie Miller, Benoît Mullin, Bethany Papadopolus, Sienna Rader, Mercedes Rivoire, Pheobe Stassen, Tegan Stassen

Notes: Phone recording, not as bad as it could be, but far from my recorder's quality. Lots of chatty kids (and parents!) in the audience. I was pleasantly surprised by the scale of this production, and I am looking forward to seeing more from this group in the future.


Hairspray - Third US National Tour (Non-Equity) (Ottawa, ON) - November 19, 2023 (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Salle Southam Hall

Format: MP3 (tracked & untracked) [650MB]

Cast: Caroline Eisemen (Tracy Turnblad), Andrew Scoggin (Corny Collins), Caroline Portner (Amber Von Tussle), Craig First (Brad), Christy Oberndorf (Tammy), James Douglas Vinson (Fender), Abigail Bensman (Brenda), Scott Silagy (Sketch), Alyssa Jacqueline (Shelley), Clint Maddox Thompson (I.Q.), Caroline Purdy (Lou Ann), Skyler Shields (Link Larkin), Emmanuelle Zeesman (Prudy Pingleton), Greg Kalafatas (Edna Turnblad), Scarlett Jacques (Penny Turnblad), Sarah Hayes (Velma Von Tussle), Micah Sauvageau (Wilbur Turnblad), Kalab Sauvageau (Principal), Josiah Rogers (Seaweed J.

Husband, What Husband? The Radio Show - Amplitude Theatre (Ottawa, ON) - November 27, 2023 (Preview) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Gladstone Theatre

Format: MP3 (untracked) [174MB]

Cast: Iyono Ede (Announcer/Signer), Michelle LeBlanc (Bea), David Gerow (Rudy), Shauna Akkermans (Elizabeth), Tom Charlebois (Andrew), Tanja Puchala (Madge), John Cook (Foley Artist)

Notes: World premiere performance! This comedic play written by John Cook is done in the style of radio shows, including a Foley artist who did all the sound effects on stage! Wish I'd filmed it, he was the highlight. The actors stood at the mics, sitting down when they did not have a line. Included small segments with songs and commercial breaks for immersion.



RENT - Suzart Productions (Ottawa, ON) - December 10, 2023 (Matinee) (Closing Night) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

Venue: Meridian Theatres @ Centerpoint Les Lys Studio

Format: MP3 (tracked & untracked) [403MB]

Notes: Act One only, I had to leave :(. Audio from an external audio recorder, crystal clear (idk what happened or how to replicate it but it is immaculate). Someone brought a 5-year-old little girl who seemed confused and could sometimes be overheard making a comment or two. She had great comedic timing though, particularly "It's funny!" during a quiet part of "Over the Moon".

AUDIO:

Equanimity: A Staged Reading - Montérégie, Quebec - August, 2023 (FaceInTheMirror's master)

NFT: Except through master until January 7, 2024

FORMAT: MP3 (untracked) [236MB]

CAST: Meenu Atwal, Lucas Giannetti, Alyssa Mirachi, Chloe Nzigamasabo

NOTES: Didn't see the "Narrator" on any of the cast lists or who was playing who. Clear audio recorded on an external audio recorder.


Hadestown - First National Tour (Ottawa, ON) - August 27, 2023 (Matinee) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

NFT: Except through master until January 7, 2024

Venue: Salle Southam Hall

Format: MP3 (tracked & untracked) [627MB]

Cast: J Antonio Rodriguez (Orpheus), Courtney Lauster (u/s Eurydice), Matthew Patrick Quinn (Hades), Maria-Christina Oliveras (Persephone), Nathan Lee Graham (Hermes), Belén Moyano (Fate), Nyla Watson (Fate), Dominique Kempf (Fate), Cecilia Trippiedi (u/s Fate Unknown), Jordan Bollwerk (Worker), Shavey Brown (Worker), Jamal Lee Harris (Worker), KC Dela Cruz (s/w Worker), Racquel Williams (Worker)

Notes: Clear recording from an external audio recorder. Seat wasn't the best and that's reflected in the music being a bit overpowering at times. Old couple next to me was chatty but it's not very audible. Full show including We Raise Our Cups. Cast board said that Cecilia Trippiedi was on for one of the Fates, but also all 3 fates were mentioned on the cast board so I am not sure who she was on for.


Cabaret - Ovation Productions (Ottawa, ON) - September 30, 2023 (Matinee) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

NFT: Except through master until January 7, 2024

Venue: Meridian Theatres @ Centerpoint Les Lye Studio Theatre

Notes: Recorded on an external audio recorder; audio is muffled due to hiding it in my sleeve/bag as my seat was quite exposed. Act 1 is okay, but act 2 can be hard to hear at points. More rustling than usual can be overheard. Production was amazing and the cast is super talented! A woman in my row was enjoying the show a lot.


The Queen In Me - National Arts Centre (Ottawa, ON) - September 30, 2023 (Closing Night) (FaceInTheMirror's master)

NFT: Except through master until January 7, 2024

Venue: Azrieli Studio

Strauss); Esclarmonde (by Massenet); and The Magic Flute (by Mozart).

Cast: Jack Everly (Conductor/Host), Manon St-Jules (Host), Nick Adams (Vocalist), Ben Crawford (Vocalist), Ted Keegan (Vocalist), Katie Swaney (Vocalist), Ewashko Singers, NAC Orchestra

Notes: A clear recording taken from an external audio recorder. A couple songs are on the quiet side. The first speech part is done in that Ottawa TM Bilingualism where one part of the speech is French and one part is English and they don't translate the parts, but the rest fo the show is in English. All that matters witht this is that it's clear form the audience reaction all we wanted was the Overture from Phantom played by the orchestra and Ben and Ted signing Music of the Night. Preforamnce focused on the Leading Men and male Broadway composers, and included songs from West Side Story, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Thoroughly Modern Millie, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Company, The Music Man, Gypsy, The Phantom fo the Opera, Les Misérables, and others. I did my best with the setlist, but the program was not accurate.

Includes digital program.
