WJFF - Trailer Talk

Sabrina's Trailer Talk is celebrating its 20th Anniversary by sharing the first Trailer Talk from July 2003 in Roxbury, NY. Sabrina was helped by her friends and community to experiment with the talking trailer at the Junkyard Cabaret hosted by legendary performers Peggy Shaw and Lois Weaver who are a vital part of Sabrina's performance history in NYC. Lawn chairs were placed outside the trailer and a speaker was balanced on a table outside as the Beeline travel trailer and Sabrina began this project about dialogue and the importance of conversation to connect people to each other. Here's to Trailer Talk's 20th! 

What is WJFF - Trailer Talk?

Sabrina Artel's Trailer Talk is a combination of live performance, community event and radio broadcast based in the New York's Catskills region. With her vintage 1965 Beeline travel trailer, Sabrina Arteltravels to festivals and events where she invites individuals to participate in what she calls a "public conversation" in a relaxed and comfortable setting. These conversations are broadcast live through speakers mounted outside the trailer, and many interviews are later aired on WJFF during the weekly program. The New York Times described Sabrina Artel's Trailer Talk as "an unusual blend of theater, activism and broadcast journalism."
