    “Like a Drunk Chita Rivera” with Javier Muñoz

    Connor and Dylan are joined by Javier Muñoz (Into the Woods, Hamilton). Summertime is in full effect, and Javier is spending his on the cape! Currently playing the Baker in The Cape Playhouse’s production of Into the Woods, Javier is stepping into the spotlight with a little Sondheim. As it's a favorite musical of all three fellas, they excavate lyrics, characters, and themes of this incredible piece. Javier speaks about the importance of Latin representation onstage, and what this moment means for him to be playing the Baker. Having been in the room where it happens a time or two, this star reflects on memories from Hamilton and In the Heights. Hear about how he was the first person to play John Laurens/Phillip, as well as Peggy, in early readings of what would become a cultural phenomenon. Javier tells incredible stories about Chita Rivera, the unwavering In the Heights family group text, and profound moments he’s experienced at the Richard Rodgers. Stick around for doses of DRAMA, including a Widow’s Bay update from Connor, Brokeback Mountain musings from Dylan, and the tease of an autobiographical project in the works (!!!) from Javier.

    “Delicious New York Moments” with Andréa Burns

    Connor and Dylan are joined by Andréa Burns (A Walk on the Moon, In the Heights). Before chatting with this Broadway legend, the boys reflect on moving to NYC exactly 10 years ago in June of 2016. Andréa, an iconic New Yorker herself, currently stars in the original musical A Walk on the Moon. She ruminates on portraying the Jewish matriarch of a family of strong women in the summer of 1969, the experience of working with female creatives, and starring alongside Talia Suskauer, Sam Gravitte, and more incredible actors. We revisit highlights from Andréa’s enduring theatre career, such as making her Broadway debut as Belle in Beauty and the Beast on Broadway, the emotionally impactful experience of performing in The Notebook, and charting her journey as Daniela in the original cast of Lin Manuel-Miranda’s In the Heights. West Side Story recurs throughout this warm and wonderful chat, as Andréa speaks about the show’s cosmic beauty: from making her international touring debut as Maria, starring opposite (and meeting!) her future husband, and playing an original role in the Steven Spielberg film version in 2021. We also cover The Full Monty, Songs for a New World, books, and beautiful Broadway stories. Don’t miss Andréa star in A Walk on the Moon this summer in NYC!
