All Episodes
GRAND HOTEL with Spencer Glass
Welcome to GRAND HOTEL! During your stay, we hope you'll enjoy the complimentary stories of how this musical took thirty years to premiere on Broadway.
MEAN GIRLS with Lizzy Tucker
"Get in losers, we're talking about MEAN GIRLS." Never has a such a source of catty (not Cady) humor had such an intentionally wholehearted inspiration. Join the talented Lizzy Tucker (BOOP!) as she takes us into "North Shore High" as currently found at Cape Playhouse.
BIG with Alex Asp
Today is the day! After a few attempts at the Flop Shoppe, our PATREON! subscribers voted earlier this year to give the musical BIG its own episode on "A Musical Theatre Podcast." This show is often known as one of the biggest financial flops of all time.
DAMN YANKEES with Chryssie Whitehead
Before we're officially out of July and the 250th anniversary of the United States, we had to create an All-American episode of AMTP celebrating our national pastime, baseball.
HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH with Matt Rodin
Happy Pride! It's the perfect time to discuss the listener requested HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH, a loud, in-your-face musical experiment that has sparked one of the more philosophical episodes in our history.
MOULIN ROUGE! with Ryan W. Garcia
Truth Freedom Beauty Love, but maybe most of all... love. Surrender to the kinetic energy and sweeping romance of La Belle Epoque, beware of the tuberculosis, as Jeff and guest Ryan Garcia (The Try Guys) discuss the Tony winning Best Musical MOULIN ROUGE!
STARLIGHT EXPRESS with Sophie-Rose Middleton
There is one musical that holds the Guiness Book of World Records for "most visitors to a musical in a single theatre." Congratulations on not realizing it's STARLIGHT EXPRESS.
HERE LIES LOVE with Maria-Christina Oliveras
This week we're celebrating AAPI month and the recent Drama Desk nominations with guest Maria-Christina Oliveras. "MCO" was just nominated for her current performance in the new Tony-nominated play THE BALUSTERS, but long before that, she was part of the original team that created the groundbreaking musical HERE LIES LOVE.
SEUSSICAL with Kevin Chamberlin
Of "all the places you'd go" see SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL, producers had probably hoped it'd been during its initial Broadway outing. Well, as you'll find out in this week's episode, that hope wasn't exactly fulfilled.
HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING with Ryan Scott Oliver and special guest Lindsay Mendez
It's the longest episode title in the history of "A Musical Theatre Podcast," but funny enough, it's not even the longest musical title mentioned in the episode.
THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME with Rodd Cyrus
THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME is one of the most popular musicals to never have a Broadway run, but its epic story of Quasimodo and his bell tower home had reached legend status long before the Disney produced stage musical premiered in Germany.
Patreon! Preview: MAKING RENT with Tim Weil
It's time for another glimpse at what you're missing if you're not already a subscriber at PATREON!
THE FULL MONTY with Misha Brown
The most profound element of the musical THE FULL MONTY is that its nudity is only a symbol of the greater vulnerability the characters express throughout the story. Here this week to dive into that vulnerability (and let's be honest, the nudity) is everyone's favorite "bestie," Misha Brown.
SIX with Teale Dvornik and Gianna Yanelli
"God Save the Queen(s)!" This week we're covering not one, but six of the greatest divas currently on Broadway. Join us as we discuss the musical SIX, and the history behind it, with two very special guests: author, tour guide, and Broadway dresser Teale Dvornik (WICKED), and the current reigning "queen of green," Gianna Yanelli (SIX, MEAN GIRLS)!
THE SOUND OF MUSIC with Tyler Joseph Ellis
Happy New Year, listeners! We're starting off 2026 with one of the most famous musicals of all time, but while everyone has at least heard of THE SOUND OF MUSIC, most don't know its profound place in musical theatre history.
WAR PAINT with Caden Zane Marshall
WAR PAINT was the Broadway follow up to the musical GREY GARDENS, so of course it's the GREY GARDENS follow up on "A Musical Theatre Podcast." This week, actor, interpreter, and influencer Caden Zane Marshall joins us to talk about two women whose impact has changed the world forever.
GREY GARDENS with Drew Droege
This week we're spending another winter in a summer town as we cover the terrific 2006 musical GREY GARDENS. Here to not only have his cake but chew it and masticate it is the great Drew Droege (MESSY WHITE GAYS, TITANIQUE).
BONNIE & CLYDE with Ivan Menchell
Today we finish up our fall American Dream Miniseries with a surprise fourth episode dedicated to the listener requested BONNIE & CLYDE. This musical, maybe even more than the others we've covered in this miniseries, most easily represents the experience of Americans in 2025.
BARNUM with Ryan VanDenBoom
The third entry in our "American Dream" miniseries of listener requests is the 1980 musical BARNUM. Now, that means it is not THE GREATEST SHOWMAN, and please don't come for Jeff if he speaks too candidly about that musical!
1776 with Howard Sherman
The second episode in our "American Dream miniseries" is dedicated to 1776, the listener requested, Best Musical winner of 1969. It's a surprisingly unconventional musical about the very beginnings of a government that is currently, as of this moment, shut down.
