    Elegy: Joanna McKee

    Friend of the podcast, repeat guest, and genuine ray of sunshine Joanna McKee passed away today and I'm at a loss. Listen to her talk about the musical Anastasia and hear the joy in her heart.   originally released: March 25, 2020 original notes:  Joanna works in the Education Department at the Kennedy Center and she is here to take us to school about a show that neither has its facts straight nor respects the emotional implications of said facts. But, y'know, royalty! Topics include: Frozen 2, Gleb, Starlight Express, Gleb, eating the rich, Gleb, disregarding history, and seriously what is up with Gleb? Featured recordings: Anastasia - Original Broadway Cast Recording (2017) T-shirts and tote-bags and more at the Original Cast Store! Join us on PATREON to get our patrons-only podcast The Original Cast at the Movies? This month we've got Kenny Neal (Starlight Express, et al.) and Joanna McKee (this episode) talking about a musical adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera that has to be seen to be believed (and even then maybe not): Phantom of the Paradise (1974).

    Justin McElroy / The Who's Tommy - Original Cast Recording (1993)

    Justin is the oldest brother on the My Brother, My Brother and Me podcast but is also a best-selling author, voice actor, and community theatre director.

Topics include: how Tommy is like Joseph from a protagonist standpoint, seeing the original Broadway production of Smokey Joe's Cafe, the jauntiest song about molestation, and (weirdly) the State Farm's Super Bowl commercial.

    Em Whitworth / Oklahoma! - Broadway Cast Recording (2019)

    Em is an actor in New York and DC who brings us this most classic of musicals as revived St. Ann's Warehouse revival that ****s. There is really no other way to put it. That's how we all remember it. I bleep it every time but that's what we're saying. It's the Oklahoma! that ****s. Topics include: the buttery/flaky crust of nostalgia, Rebecca Naomi Jones doing no wrong, Mary Testa opening numbers, a moment of meta-textualism that brings things to a crashing halt, disappointing revivals, reclaiming Jud, and can one out-sexy Julie Andrews & Robert Goulet?
