Musical theatre composer and lyricist Will Larche joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon to talk about his bold new album Bumps in the Bathroom: and other lost shows, a collection celebrating songs from obscure downtown indie musicals that once thrived in New York’s East Village scene. Featuring powerhouse performers like Tony nominees Beth Malone and Emily Skinner, the album revives quirky, subversive works exploring love, identity, and self-expression through vibrant storytelling and unforgettable music. The project releases as a waterfall album leading up to its full debut on February 27.
Robert and Will dive into the wild world of downtown theatre, preserving “lost” musical gems, and why unconventional stories still matter in today’s theatre landscape. From scrappy basement productions to Broadway voices bringing the work to life, this conversation celebrates creativity, risk-taking, and the magic of musical theatre that lives outside the mainstream — exactly the kind of fearless artistry we love around the Roundtable.
🎙️ The Roundtable with Robert Bannon is available on BroadwayWorld, YouTube, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere you watch and listen.
