Actor/teacher Rick Westerkamp is here for the last Best Musical Tony-winner before Company based on one of the most Academy Award-winning films ever made starring an actress from the Golden Age of Hollywood. And I bet you've never heard it.
Topics include: Seeing Cabaret at 9-years-old, Turkey Lurky Time, the joys of the chorus, and whether or not Katharine Hepburn can sing (you be the judge!).
Featured recordings: Applause - Original Cast Recording (1970) • Coco - Original Broadway Cast Recording (1970)
Have you checked out our PATREON? You haven't? Then how are you going to listen to our patrons-only podcast The Original Cast at the Movies? July's episode has James Finley (The Life) and Charlene V. Smith (Man of La Mancha 1968) talking about the 2007 film Once which is the basis for the 2013 Broadway musical Once. Funny how that works.
