I’m joined by the fabulous Stephen Trask to talk co-creating the Hedwig character, his compositional process, why Hedwig means so much to so many, the way “Midnight Radio” lights up our life, the long road to getting the film made, working with John Cameron Mitchell, a bad time with Danny DeVito, why the "Clueless" musical is in limbo, his involvement with the "Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion" musical, "This Ain't No Disco", showing Hedwig at Sundance,  the many many unreleased songs tucked away in Stephen's vault, Broadway horror stories, the attempted Hedwig sequel, and much much more.

Watch this space for upcoming episodes with Frank DeMarco, John Cameron Mitchell, Mike Potter and more.
