Buckle up - this is a weird one... Karen skims the surface of this classic musical, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers! How can you make a musical about kidnapping seem romantic? You can't! But damn if those ABC brothers weren't great dancers!

Maybe Happy Ending, take 2! After a slight recording mishap, we're back and Lauren takes us on a deep dive of this Tony winning show. We go down a lot of tangents, talk about fireflies (lightening bugs), and what it means to give something up to hold on to it.

DSLP #189 - Justice for Ryan and Sharpay Evans

Not all shows are winners - even when they're an RnH property. Hot off the success of Oklahoma, Karen takes us on a deep dive of why this one maybe missed the mark. Domestic abuse? Angels? Fish fry? Find out why this classic didn't quite rise to the occasion. 

DSLP #190 - The Best Fish Fry Ever!

This week Lauren deep dives the newish jukebox musical, Jagged Little Pill. This show has everything! Drugs! Gender Identity! SA! Cheating! And more! If there is a societal issue, it's in this musical!

DSLP #193 - Love Never Dies (fanfiction)

We switch gears and Karen takes us on a deep dive of the cult classic: Grease 2. Not quite a stage show (Cool Rider, anyone), but definitely a musical - we talk why this movie musical didn't do as well as it's source material, but why the music still hits just right.



DSLP #194 - Cool Rider for All Seasons

This week we tackle a surprisingly harder than you think show - Seussical! Lauren takes us on this chaos tour and we discuss all things Jojo, too many plotlines, and more!

DSLP #195 - All About Jojo

We are a theater podcast where we talk a little, laugh a lot, and know nothing!
