Easy & The Critic

In this episode we discuss Lucas Hnath's "Hillary and Clinton" with Tony Award winners Laurie Metcalf and John Lithgow. In it, we extol the virtues of a 90-minute show, The Critic wishes that Lucas had tightened a few things up, and Easy let's you know the reality level of the show...or does he? Enjoy!

In this episode we dive in to the revival of Cole Porter's "Kiss Me, Kate!" In it, Easy really messes up (as noted right up front), The Critic is deeply disappointed (although not in the show) and we both owe an apology to the Spewacks. Enjoy!

In this episode we explore "The Mother": part two of Florian Zeller's family trilogy. In it, we make reference to the fact that tickets are hard to get. Well...they're now impossible to get as the show is closed. Also, listener warning...this one is a little slow on the uptake but gets better. Finally, to those New Hampshirites who saw it, let us know what you think. Enjoy!

In this episode we discuss the hard-to-get-tickets-to stage adaptation of "Network" starring Bryan Cranston. Inside, Easy invents a word (artistified), The Critic uses actual words to convey the same meaning, and neither are really holding back. Enjoy!

In this episode we (finally) examine the Tony Award-winning juggernaut. Inside, Easy tries to invent a word in German, The Critic reveals how much she really doesn't like South Park, and boy do we butcher an actor's name. Finally, note that at The Eugene O'Neill Theater they DO NOT warn you that the show is about to start, so get your drinks and get those butts in seats!
Enjoy!

In this episode, The Critic invents a new phrase regarding socks and how they're knocked off, Easy searches for that elusive word 'moments', and despite discussing how the show may not be for some, and getting the letters of an important initialism mixed up (we know it's LGBTQ) we hope that is shines through that we definitely believe in every kind of love. Enjoy!

CLOSING SOON... 10 Mar 2019.
In this episode, we explore the Broadway premiere of Tarell Alvin McCraney's "Choir Boy" at the Manhattan Theatre Club's Friedman Theatre. In it, we start the campaign for a new Tony for Best Stepping, Easy has an identity crisis, and The Critic learns a little something about the MacArthur Fellowship. So eclectic. Enjoy!

In this history-laden episode, we discuss Jez Butterworth's "The Ferryman" now on Broadway after its successful run in London. Inside, Easy forgets to mention the female lead, Laura Donnelly (on whom much of the plot is based, sorry Laura), The Critic takes you on a journey in to The Troubles, and in doing so, we break our record for length of an episode (please think of the extra minutes as a special holiday treat...please). Also, sorry about the heavy breathing...this is definitely an explicit episode...Enjoy!

In this episode, we explore the return of Harvey Fierstein's "Torch Song Trilogy" (now with a new name and run time) to Broadway. Inside you'll hear The Critic expand on the importance of family as a theme, Easy unable to distinguish one Prince Valiant haircut from another, and an homage to our friend Ms. Spilker by referring to a movie as a show. Enjoy!

Limited Run Alert: closing Jan 13th!
In this particularly curse-laden episode, we explore the new play, "The Lifespan of a Fact". In it, we explore the relationship between truth and story, while The Critic extolls the prowess of the actors and Easy has, well, nothing major to contribute. Enjoy!
