Kyle Marshall — Wed, 30 Aug 2023 09:00:00 -0600

It's the sweaty, sexy version of The Wild Party! Somehow there were two musicals released in the same year but John LaChiusa's version was on Broadway, starred Mandy Patinkin and Toni Collette, and featured Eartha Kitt. Matt Koplik returns to drink some bathroom gin and discuss this unhinged show.

Losing My Mind – Follies (with Ashley Pribyl)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 02 Sep 2020 09:00:00 -0600

This is the only time the younger versions of the four main characters get to sing a song. Is the jaunty melody actually a sign that their relationships started positively but became corrupted? Or are they trading fake niceties to hide the negativity brewing in their lives?

A Fine Romance, music by Jerome Kern and lyrics by Dorothy Fields, performed by Ella Fitzgerald: https://youtu.be/VMUFn9D6xR8

Let's Take a Walk Around the Block, music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by Ira Gershwin and E. Y. Harburg, performed by Doris Day: https://youtu.be/0hJtQPD6un8

Nice Work If You Can Get It, music by George Gershwin and lyrics by Ira Gershwin, performed by Peggy Lee and Frank Sinatra: https://youtu.be/G_-ctuv3qYA

Matthew mentioned the 1985 concert version of Follies. You can begin listening to that here: https://youtu.be/YsnpoC0V520

Here they come, those beautiful fools. William C. White returns to the show to discuss Sondheim's influence in writing slow waltzes, the original song that was supposed to open Follies, and try to figure out who Lorelai was.

Claude Debussy's Danse sacrée et danse profane, for harp and strings: https://youtu.be/rMRzGjqXChs

The original opening was supposed to be a song called Bring on the Girls. Here's a version sung by Jason Tam: https://youtu.be/JG-Ba7QcfS8

Sorry-Grateful – Company (with Lauren Shippen)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 08 Jan 2020 09:00:00 -0700

How can you feel sorry and grateful at the same time? I'm sure the Germans have a word for it. Lauren Shippen joins Kyle to discuss this odd feeling along with relationships and vulnerabilities.

You can see all that Lauren does by reading her website: https://www.laurenshippen.com
You can follow her on Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenshippen
Or Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurenshippen/

You can purchase her debut novel, The Infinite Noise, at your local bookstore or right here: https://amzn.to/2QAmole

Two podcasts of hers that I'd like to highlight are:
The Bright Sessions - https://www.thebrightsessions.com/season-one - a science fiction podcast that follows a group of therapy patients. But these are not your typical patients - each has a unique supernatural ability. The show documents their struggles and discoveries as well as the motivations of their mysterious therapist, Dr. Bright.
Passenger List - https://passengerlist.org - A missing plane. A cabin full of suspects. A search for the truth.

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 09 Oct 2019 09:00:00 -0600

It's a weird way to end a show, but then again with Anyone Can Whistle everything has been a bit odd. Karen Unland and her daughter Elizabeth (from the podcast That's a Thing?!) join the show to discuss With So Little To Be Sure Of.

I've Got You To Lean On – Anyone Can Whistle

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 18 Sep 2019 09:00:00 -0600

Sometimes you got to to lean on yourself. Kyle talks with himself about a song where people say they can rely on each other. But could they be just as likely to stab each other in the back? The answer is yes.

There's a Parade in Town – Anyone Can Whistle (with Jonathan Chisolm)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 04 Sep 2019 09:20:00 -0600

There's a Parade in Town is a song that was written because Angela Lansbury demanded it. Sometimes it can be hard to think about Angela Lansbury as a diva, especially if you've seen interviews with her and can see how gracious she normally is. In this episode Jonathan Chisolm helps Kyle to square those two sides of her personality.

Come Play Wiz Me – Anyone Can Whistle (with Eric Matthew Richardson)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 14 Aug 2019 09:00:00 -0600

Kyle's ability to do a French accent isn't very good. But this song, Come Play Wiz Me, is a fascinating example of pastiche. It's a musical style in which Stephen Sondheim is well known for. Eric Matthew Richardson returns to offer his expertise on that, plus gives a bunch of references ranging from Shakespeare to Monty Python.

Simple – Anyone Can Whistle (with David Heineman)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 07 Aug 2019 09:00:00 -0600

Simple is a long song. And, as it turns out, not so simple. This was the first time where Sondheim combined music, speaking, multiple characters, and multiple melodies into one song. David and Kyle try to break it apart and figure out what works and what doesn't.

There Won't Be Trumpets was cut from the show but still made it onto the cast album. It grew in popularity from there and now appears anytime Anyone Can Whistle is revived. Did it deserve to be cut? Suzanna and Kyle discuss that and how Fay may be the hero she wants somebody else to be.

Miracle Song – Anyone Can Whistle (with Christine Chen)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 24 Jul 2019 10:15:00 -0600

Miracle Song can be looked at as a satirical takedown of religion. There are certainly gospel elements to the music and blatant Christian imagery. Christine Chen returns to talk to Kyle about this and whether this should have been the opening number.

Me And My Town – Anyone Can Whistle (with Madeline Botteri and Joel DeCandio of The Sondheim Project)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 17 Jul 2019 09:45:00 -0600

The failure of Anyone Can Whistle is legendary. It closed after 9 performances. Madeline Botteri and Joel DeCandio, of The Sondheim Project, join Kyle in discussing how the first song of the show helps (and doesn't help) set the stage for what's to come. How is a show affected when the antagonist is the one who opens the show? Plus you'll hear from Angela Lansbury and her less than happy time being in the show.

That'll Show Him – A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (with Paul Matwychuk)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 12 Jun 2019 10:45:00 -0600

Philia's only solo song is one that shows how clueless she is about her whole situation. It might be a song that Sondheim fans disregard, but there are a few things worthy of consideration. Paul Matwychuk also discusses with Kyle about whether there might be a way for Philia to be portrayed differently, and whether the show should ever be revived.

That Dirty Old Man – A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (with Zina Lee)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 05 Jun 2019 09:30:00 -0600

The character of Domina is usually considered a shrewish old woman who wrecks the fun for all the other characters. But perhaps there is more to her than that two dimensional depiction. Zina Lee joins Kyle to discuss her song, the treatment of women in the show, and whether gender swapping should be encouraged in the modern theatre.

Is freedom the necessary essence of democracy? Maybe or maybe not. Erik Stadnik returns to discuss how Pseudolus not only desires freedom but also desires to be looked at as a man. Pseudolus wants to be a real person. Perhaps Sondheim was trying to give characterization to caricatures.

Love is a theme in many songs. For Hero this might just be the first time. Karen Unland returns to discuss young love and whether Sondheim is able to capture it effectively. Especially considering that he didn't find love until he turned 60.

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 10 Apr 2019 10:00:00 -0600

Federico Tedeschi returns to the podcast to discuss Plautus, Roman drama, and a little farce. The new season is here! A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is the first Broadway musical that Stephen Sondheim was (finally) able to write both lyrics and music. Comedy Tonight is the most famous song from the show. On this episode Federico and Kyle discuss whether it holds up, if it's actually funny, and the differences between the original and the revivals.

Together Wherever We Go – Gypsy (with Matt Sampson)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 27 Feb 2019 14:15:00 -0700

Who knew a seemingly simple song could have so many different recordings? Matt Sampson calls in from Durham, North Carolina to offer his insight on a song sung by a trio of amigos. Or, could it be that it's actually Rose psychologically manipulating people to her whim? Also Kyle struggles to recall an anecdote from the seminal 1994 film The Little Rascals.

Everything's Coming Up Roses – Gypsy (with Eric Matthew Richardson)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 20 Feb 2019 13:15:00 -0700

Eric Matthew Richardson is a composer who lives in Chicago. He may or may not have some radical things to say about Everything's Coming Up Roses, the song that closes Act 1 of Gypsy. Certainly he is knowledgable about the song and the history of the show. Plus, we hear some audio snippets from Arthur Laurents as he discusses not only Gypsy, but what makes a good musical director.

You'll Never Get Away From Me – Gypsy (with Federico Tedeschi)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 30 Jan 2019 10:30:00 -0700

Federico Tedeschi is an Italian student who has a deep love for Stephen Sondheim. After researching who made the music for Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd he discovered an entire body of work that he happily consumed. In this episode he discusses with Kyle how Europeans aren't as interested in musical theatre as they are with other art forms, how this song is necessary for the whole show, and how Rose may be a tragic figure.

Mr. Goldstone / Little Lamb – Gypsy (with Isaac Bernier-Doyle)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 23 Jan 2019 11:30:00 -0700

Isaac Bernier-Doyle returns to the show to explore two (somewhat?) contentious songs. Kyle certainly discovers that he likes a certain song less and another song he begins to appreciate more. Also, what would happen if Mr. Goldstone were combined with Little Lamb as Sondheim once considered? It's a fascinating alternate universe. How do you like them egg rolls?

Small World – Gypsy (with Nathaniel Claridad)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 09 Jan 2019 10:00:00 -0700

Nathaniel Claridad brings his experience as an actor, a director, and a (reluctant) producer to discuss Small World. This is a song in stark contrast to Mama Rose's first song, Some People. Instead of the brash chutzpah that has already been shown, this song is soft and intimate. Each actress to portray Rose has had a slightly different approach to singing it and the discussion turns to whether it works better to be sung sweetly or sensually.

Some People – Gypsy (with Karen Unland)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 02 Jan 2019 09:45:00 -0700

Some People is a song sung by a desperate woman. Or, perhaps, it could be looked at as an ode to the entrepreneur. At any rate Karen Unland returns to the show to discuss how Rose's first song of the show informs her character and how–depending on the performer–it can change the interpretation we have of them.

Layan Elwazani is currently a standby for The Band's Visit, which is playing right now at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre in New York City. Layan has an extensive knowledge about Stephen Sondheim and has even had the chance to be in a couple of productions of West Side Story. She brings with her an actor's outlook that is fascinating to hear, especially when it comes tot he characters of Maria and Anita.

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 14 Nov 2018 13:00:00 -0700

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 31 Oct 2018 09:00:00 -0600

I Feel Pretty may be the most well known song from West Side Story. Is it a frivolous tune meant to ease the audience into Act Two, or is it empowering to see a woman sing about feeling beautiful? Tara Koett, a teacher at Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive High School, and her two students sit down to discuss their different views.

One Hand, One Heart – West Side Story (with William White)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 10 Oct 2018 09:00:00 -0600

One Hand, One Heart is when our main characters sing about their future wedding. The music to this song was written first and Sondheim felt a bit hampered by that. Kyle invites filmmaker, musician, and actor William White onto the podcast to discuss this romantic song. Plus, they wonder if Sondheim is (maybe) just a bit too harsh on himself.

Cool – West Side Story (with Ben Zuk)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 03 Oct 2018 09:00:00 -0600

What's considered cool nowadays? Stephen Sondheim definitely didn't create the word cool, but he used it to great effect in West Side Story. While this may not be his most lyrically complex song it certainly has a purpose. Ben Zuk joins the podcast with his thoughts on the song and why it is so physically demanding to the performers.

Ben mentions his email which is: zuk.benjamin@gmail.com

Tonight – West Side Story (with Erik Stadnik)

Kyle Marshall — Wed, 19 Sep 2018 09:00:00 -0600

Erik Stadnik joins the podcast to revel in the beauty of the music but also (what he thinks) is the dumbness of the lyrics in the song Tonight from West Side Story. This is the first duet sung by Tony and Maria. It could be looked at as beautiful or perhaps just the lustiness of young love.
