    A Catered Affair

    This week we talk about A Catered Affair a musical with a book by Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by John Bucchino. Based on both the 1956 film The Catered Affair written by Gore Vidal and the original 1955 teleplay by Paddy Chayefsky, set in 1953 in the Bronx, it's a really unrated musical! Enjoy!

    Dance of the Vampires

    Oh, oh sweet Christ. This is a big one. DOTV is an awful, awful show and I am too excited the whole time. There is no cast recording of the show so, the audio is from a bootleg of the OBC. Follow me @NOTPatReilly. I actually just did a video about Dance of the Vampires on my YouTube channel so, if you'd like to know more please check it out. You can find me at NotPAtReilly on YouTube.
