Matt Henry

The history-making Olivier winner and London stage star on bringing his own touch of magic to fashion icon Nigel in The Devil Wears Prada stage adaption, collaborating with musical legends like Sir Elton John, Jerry Mitchell and Vanessa Williams, and why life at Runway is anything but a bore. Plus we celebrate the release of the Original West End Cast Recording, transferring his moving song Seen from stage to studio and why the importance of that very song isn’t ever lost on him. We also revisit his historic Olivier win, how Not My Fathers Son from Kinky Boots opened up a conversation between audience and artist about the power of difference - and why The Actors House remains one of his proudest achievements.

Kelsee Kimmel

She’s belted her way through SIX, Rent, Pretty Woman and Kinky Boots — and now she’s taking the wheel in the final chapter of Alicia Keys’ smash-hit, semi-autobiographical mega-musical, Hell’s Kitchen. But how do you sum up a journey that’s taken her from standby to leading role — stepping into the spotlight after stars like Shoshana Bean and Jessica Vosk? In this exclusive conversation direct from her New York home, we talk stepping into “the hardest role” of her life, the pure joy of going full throttle with a “loud and high” character like Jersey, and why stretching her voice and emotional bandwidth eight shows a week is something she’s leaning into — even when it’s tough! We talk the musical’s deep connection with young women, why “Pawn It All” is the moment she gets to completely “unleash” every night, and what it meant to receive validation from actual Alicia Keys — including that now-iconic curtain-call performance together — in a true full-circle moment. Plus, we celebrate the power of swings and standbys, the importance of being honest about when your instrument isn’t at its best and why sharing the stage with co-stars like Ne-Yo and Yolanda Adams meant everything. And those backstage guests? Patti LaBelle? Michelle Obama? Shania Twain? Dionne Warwick? Susan Sarandon? Cynthia Erivo? Casual.

We also dive into spreading kindness as part of the UK touring company of Come From Away, understanding the daily pressures of navigating singing hit songs like Don’t Rain On My Parade when starring as Fanny Brice in Funny Girl, and how facing audiences when you’re not the listed above the title star can be as nerve wracking as it sounds. Plus, why she shares the power of being present in even the craziest of career highs. Host: William J Connolly Produced by: William J Connolly/Darren Bell tinathemusical.com Welcome to eleven.

Georgie Buckland

She’s the exquisite stage actor and vocalist on the creative joy of originating Andy in the Elton John-penned stage adaption of The Devil Wears Prada, her continuing obsession with Anne Hathaway and why iconic lines, serving camp and understanding the power of laughter helped carve out her take on Andy. We also explore the thrilling creative journey of developing a script and navigating changes during previews, her £3,000 fashion looks in the show and the unexpected challenges of the fashion world and how commentary from audiences about her appearance and size has been a fight she didn’t quite expect. Plus we dive into the genius of Jerry Mitchell, having Sir Elton John as a colleague and collaborator, and why she is not afraid to slay!

Chicago #3: “Nowadays” 28 Years Later

When a scaled down, revival production of Chicago launched a 4-day run at City Center Encores before transferring to Broadway in 1996, no one anticipated that the show would still be running on Broadway after 28 years and over 11,000 performances. It’s the second longest running Broadway show ever after Phantom of the Opera. Producers Fran and Barry Weissler share insider stories with Michael Riedel about how many people in the Broadway community questioned the wisdom behind the launch. Michael also speaks with Joel Grey about playing Amos against normal type casting, and he talks with marketing superstar Drew Hodges about his steamy, minimalist ad campaign for the show. Plus Ann Reinking weighs in on the risky photo shoot. This episode features never-before-heard excerpts from the interviews Michael Riedel recorded while writing his 2020 best-selling book Singular Sensation: The Triumph of Broadway.

Chicago #1: John Kander & the Making of Chicago

Legendary composer John Kander (Chicago, Cabaret, Steel Pier, Zorba) shares rarified insider stories with Michael Riedel about the making of Chicago. Kander reminisces about creating epic musical hits with songwriting partner Fred Ebb and collaborating with Director/Choregrapher Bob Fosse. Kander also reveals the secret advice he received from dear friend Liza Minnelli. Chicago opened on Broadway in 1975, and in the shadow of the Tony-winning musical smash A Chorus Line, Chicago was overlooked for years. When Chicago returned to New York’s City Center and transferred to Broadway in 1996, no one would have dreamed that the show would still be running in 2025, making it the longest running musical revival in Broadway history!

Kate Baldwin: Making It Up As She Goes

Kate Baldwin has a way of looking at the industry that is both deeply grounded and incredibly refreshing. She opens up about her approach to playing Roxie Hart in Chicago, describing her version of the character as a "Bad Nellie Forbush" who is just trying to survive. She also shares the fantastic story of how wearing the "wrong" dress to her Hello, Dolly! audition ended up being the perfect choice for Jerry Zaks and helped her find the spine of Irene Molloy. We also dig into the shifts in her personal life and career philosophy since 2020. Kate speaks candidly about letting go of the pressure to be a crossover star in TV and film and instead embracing her true love for musical theater, which she affectionately calls the "Island of Misfit Toys." From the lessons she learned growing up in Wisconsin to the joy of throwing big parties just because she can, this conversation is a celebration of finding out what actually matters to you. Kate Baldwin is a two-time Tony Award nominee for her performances in Finian’s Rainbow and Hello, Dolly!, roles that also earned her Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award nominations. Her extensive Broadway career includes starring roles in Big Fish, The Full Monty, Wonderful Town, and Thoroughly Modern Millie. Off-Broadway, she received Drama Desk nominations for her work in Giant at The Public Theater and John & Jen with the Keen Company, as well as a Lucille Lortel nomination for Superhero at Second Stage. She most recently starred as Roxie Hart in Chicago.
