The Theatre History podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously. For each episode, Aaron Odom hosts a guest from the worldwide theatre community to talk about a bizarre, fascinating and humorous story from theatre history. One catch, the guest has no idea what they’ll be discussing.
Plus, guests return to the program to share ”Theatre Horror Stories,” moments when theatre artists maintain that old adage: ”The show must go on.” From events an audience might never realize affected the show to the wheels falling off a production completely, these stories just make for great listening.

Kundenrezensionen
Euripides Eumenides
This podcast is an utter delight. There are a few factors that put it at the top of my list:
– Aaron Odom does excellent preparation (he researches his topics and knows his stuff).
– He is an engaging and funny storyteller.
– The podcast is educational: each episode presents a cross section of art-, cultural-, political-, social- and religious history from a given time-period – all through the focusing lens of theatre history.
– Most of all, though, Aaron Odom is a highly educated theatre major and inspiring theatre teacher, who clearly loves the theatre and its history. That love is and has been contagious, spilling over into the lives of his students who, prompted in part by Aaron’s encouragement, have gone on to successful careers in theatre. Some of the latter are even among his delightful guests.
Summing up, I really can’t recommend this podcast highly enough. Do yourself a favour and hit subscribe!
