MusicalTalk - The UK's Independent Musical Theatre Podcast MusicalTalk

Nick, Thos, Dom, Jonathan and Harrison are presented with a musical from each decade by AI and are expected to talk about it...  so expect a lot of chat about a lot of shows, a lot of arguments about a lot of shows, a lot of questionable facts about a lot of shows and, most importantly, a lot of fun talk about a lot of shows!

Join Thos as he talks to Ilona Sell, the director of the wonderful new show, Living With Sin – a thoroughly modern story with a contemporary take on the fabled Seven Deadly Sins.  There’s a chance to hear songs from the score and to hear a wonderful conversation about the sins being less deadly than you might think…

Thos chats to the directors, producer and star of the rather brilliant 2022 EdFringe production of Sondheim’s Company and in particular about how they approached this versatile and ever changing show. With an in-depth discussion about the different ways that the main role can be characterised and made to escape from their 1970s origins to be relevant to 21st Century attitudes, Bobby, we've been thinking of you!

MusicalTalk heads for the centre of the musical theatre universe this week as Thos chats to Colm about his recent trip to Broadway – and the many shows he saw there.  You’ll get a lot of “hi-de-hi and boopah-doo” in this lively discussion on the Great White Way.

Nick is joined by Robert as they talk about  STANDING AT THE SKY'S EDGE and SYLVIA plus tributes to Barry Humphries and Paul O'Grady. 
Nick and Harrison share live thoughts on AIN'T TOO PROUD - now playing at The Prince Edward Theatre. 

Carrying on with our tribute to the Polka Theatre for Children - Nick sits down with associate director Roman Stefanski.  Hear his thoughts on the show he's directed over the years, writing and directing for children and how important this theatre is to him and everyone else!
