One Fan Show: A Broadway Podcast

King Kong - Episode 2


Listen Later

Alex talks with his identical twin Tyler about the Broadway musical King Kong, currently playing at the Broadway Theatre. We discuss, of course, the 2,000-pound animatronic King Kong, as well as the connection to French duo Justice, how it's like the Dracula puppet musical in Forgetting Sarah Marshall and most of all whether or not you should see it. (*Please note: I realized after the recording that I was saying the lead actor's name wrong. It's Christiani Pitts, not Christiana. Apologies!)
