PODCAST

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast)

Katy and Juno (a mother and daughter double act) dive into the world of musicals to explore the plot, cast, songs and overall feel of a variety of shows. Their passion for musical theatre is infectious (in a good way). The title of the podcast is reference to Katy spending the 3 months leading up to watching a show worrying whether or not it is "age appropriate" for Juno (now 11).

Episode 81: Mrs Doubtfire

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/11/08

Problematic plots Vs spectacular stagecraft: which will reign supreme as we discuss a show we've waited so long to see that by the time this is posted, they'd already announced it's closing? Added fun comes from Essex accent analysis, tales of the fun police and some cutting edge political debate from 11 year olds.

Episode 80: Grease

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/10/25

Has any show ever necessitated quite so much discussion of pelvic thrusting? Probably not. But, aside from that, we talk about a fun night at a classic show, as well as for some reason arguing about omelettes.

Episode 79: Edinburgh Fringe

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/10/18

We went to Edinburgh Fringe for the first time! We saw ten shows in 48 hours! We had a depressing pizza experience! It’s an emotional rollercoaster as we relive our Fringe trip, featuring court battles, wild age ratings and emus.

Episode 78: Waitress x Jamie x Company

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/10/11

Is this show appropriate? No. But we’re a bit beyond that now, so off we went to the cinema to a screening of Sara Bareilles starring in the show for which she wrote the music. We also discuss another inappropriate modern classic and a Sondheim show that we won’t be rushing to see again.

Episode 77: Kathy & Stella Solve a Murder vs Next to...

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/10/04

This might seem like a weird combination of shows and that is an accurate and perceptive reflection. We laughed till we cried at one show and then cried until we couldn’t remember a time before we started crying at the other. Which is which? Listen to find out! Plus bonus content as we discuss Juno’s West End debut with PQA.

Episode 76: My fair Lady

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/09/29

Another visit to Leeds Playhouse brings our first encounter with My Fair Lady (regardless of baseless claims that Katy has definitely seen the film). Expect rants about accentism and man-babies, as well as an exciting guest appearance from an often-mentioned but previously unheard visitor.

Episode 75: Babies

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/09/13

It feels like we waited ages to see this show but that’s really just a sign of how impatient we are. Either way, it was worth the wait. You’ll hear why in this episode, along with tales of rubbish stalking, excessive caution around luggage and the virtues of Shake Shack as a pre-show meal.

Episode 74: Mean Girls

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/09/06

Yes, we've already done a Mean Girls episode BUT that was about the movie and this one's about the show's long awaited London transfer so it's fine. Hear our (extremely detailed) opinions as well as tragic tales of 1990s eyebrow trends and some beautiful harmonising.

Episode 73: Ghost

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/09/02

We get treated like actual professional theatre reviewers in this special episode about Brassneck's 2025 show, Ghost. One time, autocorrect changed the title of this show to 'Ghost!' which seems like it would be a very different show. Stay tuned till the very end to hear Juno's hard-nosed journalistic skills in action.

Episode 72: Little Shop of Horrors

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/08/09

Crazy dentists, killer plants and very expensive tote bags all feature in our last New York episode on the long-running Westside Theatre’s revival of Little Shop of Horrors. And if this show is a favourite of yours, we recommend reading ‘Attack of the Monster Musical: A Cultural History of Little Shop of Horrors’ by Adam Abraham.

Episode 71: The Great Gatsby

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/08/02

If Juno sounds like she’s falling asleep in this episode, let’s put it down to jet lag; it’s definitely not a reflection on this show, which, despite what the reviews might have said, was very entertaining. And also JEREMY JORDAN. Big questions we ask in this episode include what excuse can there be for a boring poster, can a playbill be used as a weapon, and, seriously, had nobody else actually read ‘The Great Gatsby ‘?

Episode 70: Merrily We Roll Along

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/07/26

The problem with having a big lag between recording and posting episodes is made clear here as we speculate wildly on the outcome of the Tony’s, which happened months ago. Oh well. Merrily We Roll Along has been one of *the* big shows on Broadway in 2024 and we were lucky enough to see it on our New York trip, so listen to find out why Playbills can be scary and for some bad Harry Potter jokes.

Episode 69: The Heart of Rock and Roll

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/07/05

Since we saw this show in May it has sadly closed, but we’ll keep the heart of rock and roll beating with this discussion of a show that is super funny (as you will hear repeatedly). Also featured: Pez dispensers, Frozen links and why you really should never put anything on the ledge at the front of the balcony.

Episode 68: Hell's Kitchen

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/06/30

We went to New York in May and started our week of Broadway with the Alicia Keys jukebox musical, Hell’s Kitchen, which recently won 2 Tony’s for its incredible performances. Listen to us rave about this fantastic show, as well as some timekeeping-related transatlantic differences and more discussion than you would expect about the logistics of poster purchasing.

Episode 67: 42 Balloons

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/06/21

It’s the show all the theatre nerds were talking about this spring; the glorious, delightful and inventive 42 Balloons. Associated nonsense includes Ted Lasso plot holes, more carpark reviews and some McFly rumour-mongering. Keep a look out for this show; it HAS TO come back and you must not miss it.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stageappropriate/message

Episode 66 An American in Paris

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/06/16

A perfect example of why a bit of research before ticket purchasing is always a good idea, in this episode we discuss a recent cinema screening of An American in Paris, along with a weird amount of World War II content, book recommendations and a completely irrelevant reference to Bring it On. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stageappropriate/message

Episode 65: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour...

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/06/07

Was Linzi Hateley in this show when we saw it in April? No. Do we spend half this episode talking about her anyway? Yes, of course. Other topics include pondering why an all girls school would put this on as a school play when there's one good part for a woman, the massive parachute all British children play with at primary school, and speculation on precisely why Joseph never thinks to buy a shirt. Also there's beatboxing, for which we can only apologise.--- Send in a voice message:

Episode 64: Hadestown

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/05/31

Hadestown is back in London! But don’t worry because you don’t have to take a railroad line on the road to hell to get there; you can just get a normal train. In this episode, you’ll hear an annoying number of handclaps, as well as references as random as Tenacious D, Frozen and Google Maps.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stageappropriate/message

2024/05/24

If you've ever listened to this podcast and thought "these two go on about Yorkshire all the time but do not sound as if they're from within 200 miles of it" then be excited for some quality accent work in this episode, including a guest appearance from South Yorkshire legend, Mick McCarthy. If 'Standing at the Sky's Edge' is a love letter to Sheffield, then this is a love letter to 'Standing at the Sky's Edge:' in amongst the general discussion of it's

Episode 62: Police Cops

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2024/05/17

A classic of the ‘not technically appropriate but we’ll overlook that because it’s so good’ genre of musical theatre is discussed here (yes, that’s a genre, okay?), as we bang on relentlessly about how funny Police Cops is; you could count how many times we literally say this if you like to multitask. Other topics up for discussion in this episode include: public transport, religious texts and the burden of living with the world’s loudest laugh.--- Send in a voice message:
