  • No Script: The Podcast | Episode 23: "Next to Normal" book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey and music by Tom Kitt
    The final week of Musical Month is here. And it has come too soon. Don't worry - we will definitely be doing more musicals as part of our regular programming in the near future! 
    Our final conversation of Musical Month is on "Next to Normal" - still one of the most popular musicals of the past 10 years. Jackson and Jacob take on the musicals complicated plot twists and deep themes.

  • No Script: The Podcast | S1 Episode 22: "The Band's Visit" music and lyrics by David Yazbeck and book by Itamar Moses
    In the 2018 Tony Awards, "The Band's Visit" cleaned up. Nominated for 11 awards, it went on to win 10 of them. If you've read the script and listened to the soundtrack, it is easy to see why. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob talk about this beautiful script which self-proclaims as "not very important." Its simple stories and gorgeous, dream-like music create an enriching and inspiring experience. Join us in our conversation!

  • No Script: The Podcast | S1 Episode 21: “Fiddler on the Roof," music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and book by Joseph Stein
    Is listening to "No Script" your Monday "Traaaaaadition"? If not, this is a good Monday to cement that weekly pattern. Jackson and Jacob talk about one of the defining plays in musical theatre - Fiddler on the Roof. Revivals of this charming script continue to pop up, and it's a pretty good guess that someone (maybe a high school, maybe a community theatre) is producing Fiddler within 50 miles of you. It's popular; it's wonderful. On this week's episode, J&J talk about Russian history, prayer, and, of course, tradition.

  • No Script: The Podcast | S1 Episode 20: “Hamilton" by Lin-Manuel Miranda
    He's young, scrappy, and hungry. He's Alexander Hamilton, and he's the subject of the smash-hit "Hamilton" by Lin-Manuel Miranda. This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob begin their venture into a 4-week series on musicals called Musical Month. Both J&J love Hamilton, and this week's conversation tends towards an hour of fan-boying. Hope you'll join us in this celebration of American history!
