The one...the only...Gloria Bennett! Or as Miranda likes to call her - Mom. This episode starts off with Gloria giving us some of her musical theatre and teaching background. We ended up in an awesome conversation about what she's doing to keep her theatre company's rehearsals and classes going online! (Mind the lag. This is our first time podcasting from three separate locations!)

Our friend Mirai Booth-Ong joined us today to talk about community theatre and all the other awesome projects she works on! We talk about how we all met doing The Sound of Music together, how her acting and choreographing career led to her directing full productions, and how she managed to record audio books and other voice over projects while touring in a play.

We have our good friend Alex Brown with us today! She co-creates a narrative podcast, writes YA novels, and is a showrunner's assistant for Supernatural. We talk a lot about the process writers go through to get their work out there and we were sweating just thinking about it! (It's also really hot in our recording room. Maybe that's it.)

To start off March Arts Month, we ask Christopher Hernandez of Nice Dude Productions about his filmmaking, screenwriting, and YouTubing experiences! He talks about the difference between passion projects and mercenary gigs, how he got started making movies when he was 6, and what it was like to go to school for screenwriting.

We are back! Season 4 kicks off with an episode about makeup! To prepare for the episode Miranda did Matthew's makeup. Check out the video of that on our Instagram @plupodcast

Join us on a journey through time as we revisit each episode of Season 3! We both agree that it was consistently our best one yet. We will be taking a few weeks off but expect to see us back mid February!

Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd. You can do this is two ways: See Miranda live in the stage musical which opens this Friday (January 17th), or by listening to this episode! Find out what we love and hate about the Tim Burton Directed Movie adaptation and how badly Stephen Sondheim wanted Angela Lansbury in his version.

2019 had a lot of highs and lows. Join us as we look back and reflect on the past year.

Happy New Year...Almost. Our resolution this year is for you to listen to our podcast.

It's the most wonderful time of the year... or is it? In this episode we share some of the reasons December seems more like the most stressful time of the year, and how we are preparing.
