Not only do we welcome Jono Freebairn for the third time, to talk about growing whiskers (among other things), we also rip the mask of the monster! Our #MusicaloftheWeek is the international record-breaking box office smash The Phantom of the Opera. Let the overture commence!

Industrial Musicals... America's forgotten art form; figuring out the wait for Godot; and our #MusicaloftheWeek is the incomparable Avenue Q!

Musical theatre podcasts are a thing! Musicals made just for podcasting... Who knew? Mel and Mike tell you everything you need to know about them. Plus, kinky highjinks down at the Chicken Ranch — our #MusicaloftheWeek is The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (Yee-Ha)...

Gettin' physical — what is physical theatre anyway? And how does it relate to other disciplines? Let's find out shall we...? Oh, and our #MusicaloftheWeek is Bye Bye Birdie (Mel's very first musical theatre experience).

Horses on stage, suspending disbelief, and our #MusicaloftheWeek is In The Heights.

This book could change your life! The Book of Mormon is our #MusicaloftheWeek and we wax lyrical on the benefits of solidarity, as it relates to Equity NZ.

True stories are the order of the day fam! Our #MusicaloftheWeek is Evita! and our play of the week is The Diary of Anne Frank.

We went there so you don't have to... Gilbert & Sullivan -– your definitive guide to their history, an examination of their works, and some random samples of their music. You can thank us later.

How freaky do you wanna get? Bat Boy is our #MusicaloftheWeek and they don't come much weirder than that! And we present our first Play of the Day.
