  • Matilda - Act 2
    School is coming to an end (it's not) and so is Matilda. Now that she has powers, how will she use them? And what became of the arcobat and the escapologist in her story? And what about the Russians Mr Wormwood was trying to sell to?

  • Matilda - Act 1
    We're back! And even though it's March, we've decided we're going to the movies this year! What does that mean? Musicals that have a movie adaptation (That we haven't done. There's a lot of movie musicals out there...). So we're starting with Matilda!! And just in time since Roald Dahl is getting cancelled... again!

  • Jan 2023 - What's Coming? What's Going? Where are We?
    upfront, the audio is abit wonky and we didn't realize until it was too late to do anything, but it's not the worst thing and is still listenable, but it's cool if it gets to be too much!

    Matt and David take a small moment to talk about where Broadway is at, right now, with all the closings going on.
