Easy & The Critic

In this episode, we explore the Broadway revival of Rogers & Hammerstein's classic, "Carousel". Easy invents a word, The Critic exposes her unambiguous girl-crush on Jessie Mueller and we achieve some of our finest mispronouncing. Also, sorry for the background noise...forgot to turn the fan off. Enjoy!

In this edition, we add another show to our Did You Make The Right Call series with "Farinelli & The King" the story of a Monarch who did indeed lead as two kings in more ways than one (Tenacious D reference there). Easy encourages you to never not miss a chance to not not-see Mark Rylance while doing a great job of insulting his wife, playwright Claire van Kampen. The Critic makes it out fairly unscathed in this one. Enjoy!

London Edition! - In this special double episode, we give you our thoughts on another Mischief Theatre production and a new musical about a teenaged drag queen. Easy invents the phrase "dialogue funniness", The Critic falls in love with all the tongs, and we spend way too much time talking about (and poorly performing) London accents. Cheerio!

In this episode, we do a bang up job of insulting young people and get real James Lipton on your ass in our exploration of Roundabout Theater's "John Lithgow: Stories By Heart". We also missed the chance to make the deep-cut musical theater lyric reference 'Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite"... embarrassing. Enjoy.

We uploaded this one twice (in true Steve Martin fashion). This time with the description, so you can delete the first version of #22. Ah, podcast trials and tribulations.

In this episode, we explore Steve Martin's "Meteor Shower" in our 2nd 'Did you make the right call?' episode (as it's closed). The Critic both compliments and insults Jenna Fischer, Easy gets outed as an erstwhile actor, and we do a bang-up job of explaining absurdist theater...this is some 'The Great Courses' stuff. Enjoy!

In this episode, we explore Uma Thurman's Broadway debut in "The Parisian Woman" at The Hudson. Inside you'll find that Easy is currently current with current events, The Critic helps shed light on the definition of a Broadway house, and we shout out to Macon Little Theatre (please let them take it as a compliment). Enjoy!

In our first 'Did You Make The Right Call?' episode, we explore the effanineffable mashup of Andrew Lloyd Webber music and TS Eliot poetry, "Cats". The reason it's our first DYMTRC is that we saw it on its last performance sooo you can't see it anymore. However, you can determine if we thought you 'made the right call' in seeing it or not...a decision you'll get to live with now and forever!

In this episode about the revival of "Once On This Island", we spend too much time talking about "Spring Awakening", The Critic coins the phrase "ethnically fluid", and if you want your opinion to be taken seriously, we reassure you that all you need is a black turtle neck. Enjoy!

First, this show is closing 25 Feb 2018, so take that in to consideration as you determine our level of expertise or horse shit. Second, we apologize sincerely to Tony Taccone, who directed this play, for both mispronouncing his name, and neglecting to reflect on the impact he's had on American theater. Owe you a cocktail, Tony. Clearly, we're the Morons to whom Mr. Lequizamo is referring. Enjoy!
