Katy and Juno (a mother and daughter double act) dive into the world of musicals (and the occasional straight play) to explore the plot, cast, songs, merch, random celebrity sightings, snacks and any other random theatre-adjacent thought that pops into their heads. Their passion for musical theatre is infectious (in a good way).

    Episode 124: The Hunger Games x Into the Woods x Stranger Things: The First Shadow

    Our first shows of 2026 take us to Panem (or, as Juno seems to think it is called, the E-Planet), Hawkins and, erm, some woods. It was like being on a gap year except it meant going to London for two days and noone got a henna tattoo or food poisoning.

    Episode 123: The Stagies 2025!

    It's time for our annual awards, when we celebrate the very best of the shows we saw in 2025. Do you like our new theme music? Juno remixed it because apparently she's a DJ now. Also, if Jamie Muscato does happen to be listening, nobody thinks you're a loser; it was just the competitive spirit getting to one of the presenters. Let us know which shows you'd award in the comments!

    Episode 122: Singin' in the Rain x Freaky Friday x Elf

    Three shows to discuss today and yet somehow the most iconic bits are Juno having oddly specific wedding cake ideas and a guest appearance from a member of our household making their Stage Appropriate debut.

    Episode 121: Paddington

    One of our (and everyone's) most anticipated shows of 2025 is today's topic; will we buck the trend and be the one dissenting voice, claiming Paddington is not good? No. Of course we won't. Don't be silly.

    Episode 120: Ride the Cyclone

    Happy Boxing Day, everyone! Or plain old happy December 26th if Boxing Day is not a thing where you are. What does it even mean? Noone knows. Anyway, here's our episode on the long-awaited debut of musical theatre nerd favourite, Ride the Cyclone, currently playing at Southwark Playhouse Elephant. Please excuse the random Stranger Things references; Juno's a teenager now and completely beyond control.

    Episode 119: Starter for Ten x Bonnie and Clyde

    We're back! With an episode we recorded in October! Which hasn't been posted till now because the laptop was on the blink! Anyway, we have returned with tales of a brilliant pair of shows, a first trip to Birmingham and a PUBLIC DISORDER REPORT. It's all very exciting.

    Episode 118: Musical Con x Hot Mess x 50 First Dates

    Here's the tale of our Musical Con weekend, confusingly prefaced with a detailed analysis of 'Evan Almighty.' As usual, dinosaurs get a mention, along with problematic 90s film plots and peanut-butter based snacks.

    Episode 117: 13 Going On 30

    It's the musical adaptation of Juno's favourite film! This is big news. This is discussed among other topics including anti-Paddington slander, our acapella skills and whether Jurassic Park would make a good musical.
