HaleyJane does many, many, many things (songwriter, performer, comedian, et al.) but listeners of our little show probably know her best from her work on Broadway’s answer to The Onion: The Broadway Beat.

Topics include: camping up the camp, genre-blending, the King, how Joseph was kind of a dick, and maybe ALW just NEEDS a narrator?

Sophie’s a poet. And she’s aware of the fact that she is one. A poet that is. And she’s here for Jason Robert Brown’s first Broadway show with a title that is an exclamation point away from a Gwen Verdon/George Abbott joint from the late 50s. But only in the title.

Topics include: someone else’s tragedy, staging musicals in your head, having your heartbroken, being “Sophia,” and tilting at windmills (because somebody’s got to).
