The Playbill Podcast: A Show on Broadway episodes
- Maybe Happy Ending with Darren Criss
Could a show about robots be Broadway's best new love story?
On this episode, we talk with Golden Globe winner Darren Criss (American Crime Story, Glee) who stars in Maybe Happy Ending, one of the buzziest new musicals on Broadway. He chats with Playbill's Alex Birsh about what the show means to him and what it's like bringing it to audiences each week. The episode also features an interview with the theater friend of the week, Diep Tran (Playbill's Editor-In-Chief), who talks about why this show resonated with her so much.
