Order in the court! You’ve just entered Carl’s Court, where the rulings are sharp, the objections are frequent, and judgment is not only celebrated but paramount. I’m your host, Carl Sterling Smith, and more importantly, I am your presiding judge, jury, and occasional jester — ready to put today’s biggest ideas, debates, and dilemmas on trial. This court handles cases from Wagner College Campus, the theatre industry, and beyond. So grab refreshments, take the stand, and remember: in Carl’s Court, everyone gets their say… but only one of us gets the final verdict.

In today’s episode the court will be handling the cases of Cats: The Jellicle Ball and Trisha Paytas’ broadway debut in Beetlejuice.
