April Musicals Abound

With the Tony deadline fast approaching, Broadway is chockablock with new shows opening including a ton of musicals.  We dedicate a full episode to some of the musicals we’ve seen lately.  There are screen-to-stage adaptations, book-to-stage adaptations, and just plain old-fashioned new-new musicals.  There are revivals to mention as well.

And I can’t help myself but talk about Hedwig and the Angry Inch again as the revival Yitzhak Lena Hall steps down and Rebecca Naomi Jones steps in.
