Thanks for making my retirement years extra special by having these Scene to Song Masterclasses at my fingertips. I’m a huge Bridges of Madison County fan having seen it over 17 times throughout the USA and once in the UK. I’m learning so much from you Shoshana and all of your knowledgeable guests. Keep up the great work.
Love listening, so different ,, interesting , fun and so informative. Public radio should pick this up
I have an interest in theater, but not a lot of knowledge about musicals. I find this podcast to be informative and often fascinating. And it spurs me to seek out the musicals/artists that are discussed.
I really enjoyed the podcasts. They were very informative!
This podcast covers a wide range of topics in musical theater, and the type of discussion can vary greatly depending on the guest and subject matter. But the common thread is always that musicals are treated with a serious critical and literary lens (while also celebrated as entertainment). My favorite episodes are those that dive deep into underexplored "big questions" regarding the form in general, but I also appreciate those that focus on a particular show I love.
