Well, it's been an Evita summer. So, to celebrate that and Esmé's birthday (it's this week and she likes attention), we thought it was time to take a look at the show that is thought to be the best of the Lloyd Webber-Rice partnership. Talking about whether or not another suitcase in another hall makes sense, who is Che? and why the Jamie Lloyd Revival should win Best Costumes. This was recorded before ALW decided to start being petty about Jamie Lloyd in the press, cause, of course, it was.

Just a fun, quick summer time episode this week cause next week its the hard-hitting long episode. Truth be told, it's currently 1:08 am, and I just need to put the episode up so a funny description is coming tomorrow
Esmé is back from Canada, but just because she went on holiday doesn't mean the rest of the world did, so we thought it best if we did a round-up of all the goings-on whilst she was away. Talking about all the casting news (Maybe Happy Ending and Hadestown), the latest round of cabaret discourse and ask the question what is going down at Burlesque.
This week we talk about the classic British musical blood brothers. That’s all I’m saying cause we recorded this on Wednesday and I then edited it the same day so don’t remember. No episode next week since I (Esmé) am on holiday in the Canadian lakes (I think it’s the middle of nowhere also saw Toronto very nice) so will be back for the week after nexts episode ( hopefully). ALSO a lot has happened that I have THOUGHTS ON (surprise!) so might make a tik tok talking about the goings on all I’m did call Jack Wolfe as Orpheus on Broadway
This week, we talk about the sound of music, the worldwide Rodgers and Hammerstein classic. talking about the development of a real story to a musical, the last song Hammerstein ever wrote and why new productions don't happen as often.

This week, we talk about the Max Martin musical And Juliet. talking about Max Martin's importance for the culture and asking ourselves two very important questions: why is there so much plot, and does Juliet need to be made a girlboss?
