Broadway BingeM8 - Flower Drum Song and Crazy Rich Asians (Spoiler-Free)This week we go over Flower Drum Song, the 1958 minor hit by Rodgers and Hammerstein, based on a novel by C. Y. Lee, which features an almost entirely Asian cast and takes place in (then) modern day San Francisco. A lot is being written about the 1961 movie version of Flower Drum Song at the time this podcast is being released, as it is one of the only three movies Hollywood has ever made taking place with an all-Asian cast in the modern day, the other two being 1993's Joy Luck Club and 2018's Crazy Rich Asians.

Broadway BingeMinisode 7 - Pipe DreamRodgers and Hammerstein's only true flop was 1955's Pipe Dream, based on a short novel by John Steinbeck. Unlike the earlier forgotten R&H shows, Allegro and Me and Juliet, neither of the pair was actually excitied about this one, so it's odd that it was even made. In this episode, you'll hear how some of the songs in pipe Dream sound suspiciously similar to earlier R&H songs.

Broadway Binge21. The Sound of MusicWe take a look at 1959's The Sound of Music, the final collaboration of Rodgers and Hammerstein. While the 1965 film is universally beloved, it is possible that the original stage musical was...bad??? Hannah and Jeremy investigate.

Broadway BingeMinisode 6 - Me and JulietToday, Jeremy will tell you all you need to know about Rodgers and Hammerstein's forgettable and regrettable musical, Me and Juliet, from 1953, and then you'll never need to think about it again. It is not about Romeo and Juliet, and it is not an early-2000s teen comedy, as much as the title suggests it might be. Rodgers threw Hammerstein a bone by agreeing to do Allegro in 1947, and this show is Hammerstein returning the favor. There is one fun song though, so check this out for that.

She Said / She SaidRudeness is Contagious….and thankfully so is civility! Our conversation with author and former White House Social Secretary Lea Berman (Episode #4)Sitting in the beautiful living room of Lea Berman’s elegant, historic home (one of the oldest in Washington, DC), we talked with Lea about her new book “Treating People Well” and heard wonderful stories from her days as the White House Social Secretary. One would imagine someone with Lea’s professional background to be gracious. She is, but she also exudes an elegant, quiet confidence, much like that of former First Lady Laura Bush with whom Lea worked closely. Lea is beautiful, graceful, kind, funny, and at all times focused on you — making you comfortable and putting you at ease. S...

In weeks when we can't get a full episode to you, Jeremy whisks you through a musical we skipped over as not meriting a full episode, but one you should probably know a bit about if you want to be a complete Broadway faux-expert. First up is Brigadoon (1947), the first hit musical by Lerner and Loewe of My Fair Lady fame, a musical that we originally meant to give its own full episode! This is very much in the Oklahoma mold, just by a different writing team. Enjoy!

Broadway Binge13. The Threepenny Opera
The Threepenny Opera, by Elizabeth Hauptmann, Bertolt Brecht, and Kurt Weill, was originally produced in Berlin in 1928. After a 1933 Broadway production bombed, it was re-translated by Marc Blitzstein for a smash Off-Broadway 1953 production that helped to create Off-Broadway theatre as we know it today.

Broadway Binge12. The King and I
The King and I (1951) by Rodgers and Hammerstein is a classic, and was Jeremy's first musical! We discuss how well it holds up in the present day, and compare it to South Pacific, with which it has a lot in common.

Broadway Binge11. South Pacific
This week, we talk about South Pacific (1949) by Rodgers and Hammerstein! We discuss the musical's message of racial tolerance, its exploration of discrimination, and whether the show itself is problematic in its approach to dealing with racism. We also play a whole bunch of songs, because this is probably the best score we've talked about so far. Can it dethrone Oklahoma and Guys and Dolls? Listen to find out!

We welcome Todd Buonopane (@toddbuonopane) of the amazing Broadway Stories podcast to talk to us about Guys and Dolls, which he's been in SIX times.

This week, we cover Annie Get Your Gun, composer and lyricist Irving Berlin's 1946 response to the new Rodgers and Hammerstein formula, with book by Dorothy and Herbert Fields. Unlike R+H's serious musical plays, Annie Get Your Gun is a comedy, and quite a funny one at that! We also go over Irving Berlin's biography and play some of his older songs, as he is probably the greatest songwriter in American history.
We talk about how expressive Betty Hutton is in the Annie Get Your Gun movie, so if you'd like to see it in...

Broadway Binge6. On the Town
On the Town marked the very first Broadway musical for Leonard Bernstein (music), Jerome Robbins (choreography), and Betty Comden & Adolph Green (book and lyrics). On the Town was loosely based on a ballet by Robbins and Bernstein called Fancy Free which had opened in April 1944, and they completely made On the Town from scratch by December 1944! Fancy Free itself was inspired by Paul Cadmus' painting "The Fleet's In" from 1934, seen below.

We'll talk about why the show was so important, play you some clips, read you some scholarly quotes, and talk about how well it holds up.

This week we discuss 1940's Pal Joey with music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Lorenz Hart, book by John O'Hara, based on a series of short stories he published in the New Yorker, directed by George Abbott (the Hal Prince of his day).
We discuss the songwriting team of Rodgers and Hart, the most popular hit-writers of the 1930s, in their most well remembered show, and one of their last before Rodgers replaced Hart with Hammerstein. We've got more clips than ever this week, with three from Pal Joey and three others from earlier...

As usual, no familiarity with the show is required to enjoy the podcast, as we play ample audio clips and the plot isn't unexpected or interesting for you to worry about us spoiling you. Porgy and Bess rides the line between opera and musical, and has been performed as complete opera, complete Broadway musical, and every shade in between. We discuss the show, the Gershwin brothers, and we take a look at how criticism of the show's ha...

For our second episode, we discuss Anything Goes (1934) with music and lyrics by Cole Porter, book by Guy Bolton and P.G. Wodehouse, heavily revised by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. You genuinely don't need to have seen the show to enjoy this episode, as the plot of the musical is entirely irrelevant, and we play a few clips from the songs. If you want to know why the show is good, all you need to do is watch this one four-minute video of the 2011 Tony performance of the title song "Anything Goes," featuring Sutton Foster.

We begin our quest to discuss and review every important musical from Show Boat to today with Show Boat itself, music by Jerome Kern, book and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, produced by Florenz Ziegfeld. This 1927 show is considered by some to be the first modern musical, or at least the single most important step on the way to Oklahoma!, considered by many more to be the first modern musical.
Show Boat was a huge step forward for the American musical, considered by Hammerstein to be a musical play instead of the light musical comedies t...
