- Musical Theater Gold!
This is a treasure trove of musical theater history! You will never hear, “It’s the witch from next door” the same way again. I wish every show had this kind of deep dive. To bastardize a Sondheim lyric, “I could listen to this forever…”

I had no idea when I first listened to this podcast that I would become addicted. I saw the original production and loved it. Bernadette signed my playbill and it’s still hanging on my wall all these years later. The podcast is truly amazing to listen to. I enjoy hearing the different points of view and the recollections of people who have been involved in ITW. Ben has a knack to make everyone he interviews interesting and relevant to the story of ITW. Ben’s passion for ITW is contagious and I w... more
Apple Podcasts5DuffyNCUnited States3 months ago - GREAT podcast!
What a brilliant idea to do an oral history of the creation of Into the Woods, a beloved show for generations! I love hearing all the different perspectives, from James Lapine to the stage manager, dismissed cast members, and even Sondheim’s intern. The host shares my obsession with the idea of Betty Buckley as the Witch. I wish she had recorded those songs then. Thank you for documenting all these recollections and making it available to the public!
Apple Podcasts5TTotalerUnited States4 months ago - Required curriculum for Sondheim lovers
This is more than just a podcast or a deep dive — it is a comprehensive and definitive historical tome on an important piece of theater. Ben manages to draw out not only the creative genesis and production process behind Into the Woods but also the backstage shenanigans and goings-on that only enrich our understanding of how incredibly singular this original production was. I particularly love the human moments that are revealed to us when Ben gives his fantastic guests the space to be themselve... more

Australia6 months ago - Fantastic!
Unlike many, ITW was not my “gateway” into Sondheim and I used to dislike it, yet this podcast (and the 2022 revival) has deepened my understanding and appreciation of the piece so much that it’s now in my top 5 Sondheim shows. Ben is a great interviewer and it’s fascinating to hear each artist’s perspective on the same events.
