TheaterReviewsFromMySeat's Podcast

Hello! I am an avid theatergoer based in New York who has a passion for live theater. From Broadway to way off Broadway and even occasionally out of town. I’ve started a personalized blog and this podcast to capture my reviews of the shows I have attended. Since I typically attend more than 150 performances per year, I hope to share my experiences to inspire you to try a show or theater company you may not know. Please come visit www.theaterreviewsfrommyseat.com.
