Acast Productions

Places, Dahlingz! is a show for Broadway lovers and haters alike in which three hosts - theater icon Billy Porter, theater skeptic Leslie Jones, and recent theater convert Phoebe Robinson - come together with one impossible goal: to write the perfect show. Each week, they’ll sit down with one of theater’s biggest stars for hilarious and heartfelt conversations about all things live performance. At the end, every guest will suggest one idea that Billy, Leslie, and Phoebe must include in their show—no matter what. The whole season leads up to the live finale where they’ll unveil their brand new show. It’s part interview series, part madcap creative experience. And unlike a real Broadway show, you can actually afford to see it. New episodes every Thursday. Find us on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube @placesdahlingz. Hosted on Acast.
