Every Musical Ever

55

Each week, host Richard Carroll discusses a different musical with smart and hilarious guests, including Joel Creasey, Lucy Durack, Leigh Sales, David Campbell, Virginia Gay and Julia Zemiro. Each musical gets an in-depth going-over – from deconstructing the minutiae of the plot, to fan-girling over the songs, reminiscing about the impact of the musical on our lives, and interrogating the unanswered questions we’ve always wanted resolved.

    A must listen to for any musical theatre fan!! You feel like it’s an unforced conversation and I get to listen alongside! Gets me excited about shows I need to watch and gives me fun facts about ones I know! Would recommend!
  • dgdisney
    Please do a review of Newsies!
    Love listening to this podcast, and it already has reviewed many of my favorite shows, but I’d have to request is Disney’s Newsies and Hunchback of Notre Dame!
  • Makenna Cook
    Dear Evan Hansen, please
    Love the podcast. Although, I have noticed that you haven’t done one on Dear Evan Hansen. For future reference, maybe, just maybe, invite Ben platt to your show...but maybe though
  • CheeseyMoosicals
    Sending love from the Cheesey Side!
    From one musical podcast to another, this is wonderful and I love listening! Keep being great! 🧀
  • Stef.msk
    Snobby and kinda mean
    Who reviews a high school production at the level of a professional? It’s so mean! And so dismissive of musicals they don’t like. Not impressed, and not reflective of an open minded, supportive environment we’d like to associate with the world of theatre.
  • sondheimboy
    Rocky Horror
    Enjoyed your show, but how could you not mention Barry Bostwick’s performance? It’s not as brilliant as Tim Curry’s, but his comedic performance comes very close.
  • Functional Utopian
    Sometimes frustrating
    I've only listened to two episodes, and as a musical theatre junkie (and teacher), I love hearing someone as passionate as me. Though I'm in the U.S. and don't get a lot of the Australian references, there is still some good insight. However, the "Wicked" episode frustrated me SO much because they got SO MUCH WRONG!
  • Afholtz
    Fun listening
    Great podcast - glad I discovered you! (And it was Trude Rittmann who did many of those great vocal and dance arrangements for Rodgers and Hammerstein shows - she doesn’t get nearly the credit she deserves!).
  • Earwithfeet22
    Best musical podcast out there!!
    I just found this podcast and am LOVING it!!! Can’t wait for more episodes to come!!
  • AndreaNB06
    Wonderful!
    Richard: Just started listening. Love you passion! Plus it's great you discuss the history of performers and the creatirs if the book and the music. Just saw Carousel on Broadway. One of the few Rdgers & Hammerstein shows I have not seen live. Love to have you review that!
  • Shaananc
    Love it.
    This podcast is great!
  • MANkind STUDIOS
    Wonderfull podcast
    Wonderful podcast very informative entertaining and terrific guests… One thing I might add if I may… From a technical standpoint… Have your engineer adjuster Mike quality… We hear what appears to be one mic in the middle of the room and everyone talking into it… Your mike Fidelity is low.
