Thank You, Five episodes

  • The Life: Act 1
    We're still here! Kinda! But this week, we bring you a special treat in which we talk about Cy Coleman's lesser known 90s show, The Life. A traditional musical about sex workers isn't exactly what you'd imagine, but in the world of musical theater, it's worth a look!

  • Into the Woods Act 2
    WHO will be THEEEEEEERE? Well, Matt and David find out that it's a lot of people. At least, if we're talking about famous members of revivals of Into the Woods! Come join us as we finish the fairy tale story, complete with a possible AIDS allegory and a ton of unfortunate implications. What will happen now that we've all gotten our wish? Listen and subscribe to find out!

  • Into the Woods Jr/Act 1
    Once upon a time, a musical was filmed and broadcast on PBS. Everyone taped it and showed it to their impressionable children and an entire generation of theater kids were born. This week, we're taking on Into the Woods. Act 1. Or Into the Woods Jr, if you're doing that show. What are we getting again?
