James Lapine lets us into the origins of Into the Woods, from his very first conversations with Sondheim to Patti LuPone's audition for Cinderella, and ultimately the Broadway triumph and why it was important for him to direct the broadcast cameras rather than delegating the filming of the show to the director of the Golden Girls, as had been done for Sunday in the Park with George.

Customer Reviews
Fully obsessed
Everytime I put on this podcast, I learn one to two million things. I consider it an invaluable resource for anyone who is looking for an earnest, funny, sometimes irreverent musical theatre podcast. Fully obsessed.
Love for the Ladies of Broadway
Ben and Daniel revere a Broadway belt and have put it on display for theatre lovers as one of the brightest lights in the world of podcasts- love their spirit and humor and showcasing of incredible singers on every show.
Dishy and deep!
This show will take you deep into the best of broadway with delicious backstage/offstage anecdotes and insight. With an impressive command of musical theater history, this show will make you smarter and funnier at your next cocktail party. In fact, the show itself has the best feeling of sitting with Ben and Daniel having a dishy, intimate conversation at their Fire Island share. These two charmers will reignite your passion for musicals and, of course, Patti LuPone.
