Stage to Screen

Elise and Marcelo try something a little different in this episode. First, they talk about Stephen Sondheim’s classical musical Company, how important it is to one of them (guess who), and their experience watching a local production. Then, they talk about the classic documentary Original Cast Album: Company and the fact that there hasn’t been a film adaptation, yet.

Elise and Marcelo wish you a Happy Halloween by talking about the cult classic The Rocky Horror (Picture) Show! Featuring Joey Hamilton and special guest Rocky Horror creator Richard O’Brien.

Elise and Marcelo start their new season of Stage to Screen with a look at the stage musical and film adaptation (directed by Clint “Sully” Eastwood) of the Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons musical Jersey Boys.

Elise and Marcelo are here to announce the lineup for Season 2 of Stage to Screen! Plus, more importantly, they interview Rocky Horror creator Richard O’Brien and Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror director Linus O’Brien.

Elise and Marcelo end the first season of the podcast were they focus on stage musicals and their film adaptations by discussing Wicked. From Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth to Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, and everything in between, they discuss just about everything to do with the stage show and the film adaptation (of part one).

Elise and Marcelo talk about possibly one of the worst musicals they’ve seen, Cats. First, they discuss the 1998 stage show version of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical. Then they discuss the 2019 film adaptation. In the next episode they talk Wicked and, in the meantime: courage.

Elise and Marcelo talk about the Alan Menken and Howard Ashman musical Little Shop of Horrors and the 1986 film adaptation, plus the original The Little Shop of Horrors directed by Roger Corman.

Elise and Marcelo talk about seeing a stage performance of My Fair Lady before breaking down the Best Picture-winning adaptation. Also, they watched the original Pygmalion film and you might be surprised where they land on that.

Elise Poston and Marcelo Pico talk about the stage version of Les Misérables and the 2012 film adaptation. From the joy of seeing it on stage to the horror(?) of Russell Crowe’s performance, they talk about it all.

Elise Poston and Marcelo Pico introduce you to Stage to Screen here in this, The Intro Episode! The new show covers stage musicals and their film adaptations. Stay tuned for the next episode in which they discuss Les Misérables!
