My Boyfriend Hates Musicals

SURPRISE! We’re back for a special one off episode and we’ve teamed up with the Birmingham Hippodrome! They’ve got an incredible new season coming up with musical marvels, dramatic dance works and hilarious comedy shows. We catch up with three very special guests to find out what we’ve got to look forward to at the Hippodrome this season so join us for laughs galore as we celebrate 120 years of the Birmingham Hippodrome! 

And just like that we’ve come to the end of the series! Join Elise & Scott for one final blast of musical mayhem as they countdown their top 5 moments of the podcast, Scott’s disgust at seeing a musical more than ONCE and we are treated to a chat with two very special guests, the incredible Zoe Birkett & Jodie Steele! Don’t worry though, this isn’t the end... the guys MIGHT just have some exciting news to share with you at the end of the episode! 

The Penultimate episode of Series 2! Elise takes Scott to a press night that could just be the worst experience of his life. We also chat musicals we love and hate (including YOURS too!) AND we have a stupendous guest in the form of musical theatre legend John Owen Jones to chat his new album Spotlight, Les Miserables at the Gielgud Theatre and more! Get ready for some serious fangirling...

We are 1! Thank you so much for all the support! This episode we’re thrilled to be celebrating a whole year of the podcast! What a way to celebrate than with some amazing topics? Understudies; the hardest working people in theatre? A musical with no dialogue; unbearable? And we chat with Mischief company members Leonard Cook and Jean Luke Worrell from The Comedy About A Bank Robbery about life in one of the funniest shows in the West End! 

It’s the week of the 2019 Olivier awards! Elise bores Scott with her award predictions, we have a very personal round of ‘Getting to Know You’ and lots of fun and chat around chucking out theatre programmes, rustling sweets and covering your home in musical theatre memorabilia. Scott obviously does not approve! Listen on and be swept away on a magic carpet of moans, groans and laughs!

The guys are back with another hilarious episode of discussions on arriving late to take your seats, they chat to superstar Olivier award winner Rebecca Trehearn and Elise reveals the most ambitious thing she’s ever done at a theatre! (Scott is in absolute dismay!) Listen on for more laughs and thoughts about the marvellous magical world of Musical Theatre!

It’s episode 3! Olivier Awards have been announced! Elise is delighted to chat to Jenna Boyd currently starring in Come From Away which is up for an incredible 9 nominations! PLUS! Scotts getting angry about celebrities in musicals, we chat about the ever rising prices of theatre tickets and the warm cosy nostalgia of movie musicals! (Which obviously Scott doesn’t like!) Buckle in for an episode of laughs, opinions and awful innuendos…

This week Elise & Scott are back with a super musical theatre guest, the incredible Daniel Boys for some chat and giggles backstage at Town Hall & Symphony Hall Birmingham. They also dig deep and chat all things ushers, emotional theatre trips and Scott asks the BIG question; has the theatre world run out of ideas?

We’re back & in 2019 supported by Town Hall & Symphony Hall Birmingham! Series 2 kicks off with lots of laughs, disagreements and a HUGE special guest! Scott shares a theatre story that leaves him raging, Elise reveals she made the ULTIMATE theatre blunder earlier this year and we chat to one of the biggest stars in Musical Theatre, KERRY ELLIS!
