Jul 7 Episode 228: Keilani Rose

Keilani Rose is a scene-stealer in Shoresy, a spin-off of Jared Keeso and Jacob Tierney’s beloved comedy series, Letterkenny. Shoresy follows the foul-mouthed, chirp-serving, mother-loving, fan favourite character from Letterkenny named Shoresy as he joins the Sudbury Bulldogs in a quest to never lose again. Shoresy is audacious, surreal, daring, and hilarious. It’s also intersectional in a way that feels authentic and unifying and exciting. Vancouver-based actress Keilani Rose shines as Miigwan, protégée to the GM of the Sudbury Bulldogs Hockey team. Keilani is an actor, filmmaker, DJ, and classically and culturally trained dancer. She made her film debut starring in and choreographing Within the Silence, which was written and directed by Jade Tailor and won Festival de Cannes awards for Best Fantasy and Best Choreography in 2021. We’ll soon see her on the highly anticipated series SkyMed as well as in Breathe, a film from friend of the podcast Cody Kearsley. In this riveting episode, Keilani Rose talks Shoresy, authentic intersectionality, and where she plans to take us next.
