    Ep 14 - Sorry, I've Been Out Changing My Life!

    I'm sorry I took a little break, I've been out changing my life! Today I come to you from a secret location to talk about what politician I'd stunt cast in Hadestown, how the average yearly income of Broadway ticket buyers is more money than I've cumulatively made in the last decade, witnessing how nuts Alice Ripley was on Facebook almost two decades ago, 1970's Australian Cast Recordings of Rock Musicals and why they're superior, the rise and fall of the biggest up and coming regional theatre, and our collective theatre trauma. As always you can support the show through PayPal and Cashapp at JuicyTheatreTea@gmail.com. You can also support the show through Patreon (a link can be found in the bio of my tik tok)!

    Ep 10 - A Chat About Mental Health and Theatre

    I want to attach a massive trigger warning to this episode (suicide, mental health, sexual assault): I don't know if I've honestly talked about my story through the theatre and the trauma from the theatre that has shaped my mental health. I hesitate putting this podcast out because I don't know if you're supposed to talk about things this way but I honestly feel like I have very little to lose by clearing my chest for the first time. I hope the right person hears this and knows that you're not alone. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    EP 9 - The Church Of HAIR

    On this weeks episode: Jonathan pitches multiple high concept productions of classic shows in hope a wayward producer puts on this god forsaken podcast, hears said ideas, and hires Jonathan to direct them. Jonathan also discusses the worst piece of theatre they've ever seen (the 2018 Broadway revival of Carousel) and much more! This is an episode that's all over the place but this just exist as a raw/real/ranty outpost so it's a very on brand all over the place. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Ep 8 - A Collection Of Things I Can't Say On Tik Tok

    Ep 7- Theatre Can't Save You Until You Save Theatre.

    Sorry for two weeks off, things have been going on behind the scenes! In this episode I am really fired up and really have a lot to say. I rant about the entire current infrastructure of theatre in America. American Theatre, from the top to the bottom, appears to truly be doomed unless everyone decides to stand up and say "we're not allowing this any longer." Hosted on Acast.
