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 118: Musical Con x Hot Mess x 50 First Dates

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/10/31

Here's the tale of our Musical Con weekend, confusingly prefaced with a detailed analysis of 'Evan Almighty.' As usual, dinosaurs get a mention, along with problematic 90s film plots and peanut-butter based snacks.

Episode 117: 13 Going On 30

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/10/17

It's the musical adaptation of Juno's favourite film! This is big news. This is discussed among other topics including anti-Paddington slander, our acapella skills and whether Jurassic Park would make a good musical.

Episode 116: Military Wives

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/10/03

We went to see this brand new show during its premiere run at the lovely York Theatre Royal (which, incidentally, has the best sight lines of any stalls seats anywhere). Somehow we end up discussing how horses would wear trousers, Juno seems to lose herself trying to remember an Eminem song (see what I did there?) and at least one of us is definitely about to lose their voice.

Episode 115: Here and Now x Fun Home

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/09/26

A glaring contrast in shows in this episode, with bonus discussion of two straight plays too. What a treat! Listen out for us being judgy about other people's toilet habits and Juno speculating on the Birmingham marshmallow scene.

Episode 114: Saving Mozart x Hercules

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/09/19

The last of our London summer shows are the topic of discussion in this episode, also featuring chatty audience members, inclement weather and Juno for some reason deciding right before recording a podcast was the right time to put on a face mask that would a) limit her ability to speak and b) make her look like a fictional serial killer.

Episode 113: Evita

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/09/14

Inevitably, we saw the summer's biggest show in the West End: Jamie Lloyd's Evita. It was... a whole thing, involving the world's tallest man, baffled customers at the Angus Steak House and, for some reason, a Harry Potter tangent. And probably loads of Oliviers. Not for us.

Episode 112: Edinburgh Fringe 2025

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/09/06

This summer, we made our second trip to Edinburgh for the craziness of the Fringe and it was EPIC. You'll hear all about it in this episode, featuring Shakespeare, netball, aerobics, acapella, velociraptors and Jaffa Cakes, as well as a insight into Juno's complex life plans despite being only 12. Roll on Fringe 2026!

Episode 111: The Railway Children x Fiddler on the Roof

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/08/29

Don't worry; despite Juno's confusing into to this episode, this is still the same silly theatre podcast. In this episode, we're talking about a charming childhood favourite (including dogs) and a classic musical with metaphors that are either very profound or confusing, depending on which one of us you agree with. Let us know if you've seen either of these shows!

Episode 110: Dear England

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/08/23

In a change to our usual programming, we're talking about a play today, with bonus lecturing on the history of football from Katy; who wouldn't want to listen to that?

00:25:46

Episode 109: Chess

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/08/12

We're back after a long delay, because Katy has been too busy sewing Juno's Musical Con outfit to edit anything. Thanks to Ava Max, we know that in chess, a king can move one space at a time, but queens are free to go wherever they like. Thanks, Ava Max. In 'Chess,' the actual musical, however, things are a bit more complicated, especially when there's crazy David Bowie make-up and disturbing whooping men involved, as you'll hear in this episode.

Episode 108: Shucked x The Great Gatsby

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/06/27

We present you with lots of corn-y jokes (haha), Juno repeatedly listing the whole principal cast of The Great Gatsby in London and Katy, quite shamefully, calling Georgina Onuorah "Georgia." Why? I don't know. Also featuring: pigeons, performative ovations and stage door stampedes.

Episode 107: Double Sondheim

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/06/13

What self-respecting 12 year old doesn't beg to see two weird Sondheim shows in two days, especially ones with hardly any songs/baffling amphibian themes? We talk celebrity casting, long notes and nervous dogs in this highly cerebral episode.

en

00:28:08

Episode 106: Kinky Boots x Bonnie and Clyde x Cruel...

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/06/06

In this episode we discuss something fun, something dramatic and something horrible: can you guess which is which? In amongst the serious musical theatre business and continued Jeremy Jordan content, we pitch our plans for 'Charlie and Lola: The True Crime Musical,' yawn a frankly ridiculous amount and engage in some friendly accent critique.

en

00:39:10

Episode 105: Mary Poppins x The Flood x My Neighbour...

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/05/30

As you can guess from this episode's title, we're all over the place (and way out of date) in this one. From questioning the mechanics of flight to QR code scams, along with the rampant capitalism of show-themed plushies and, once again, Juno showing her spelling skills, try to keep up if you can.

Episode 104: Muriel's Wedding

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/05/09

It's been a while since we've had the kind of theatrical parenting fail that inspired this podcast, so here's one for the list! Did we check the age rating properly? No. Also featuring the big question everyone's (probably) talking about: are ABBA murderers?

Episode 103: A Knight's Tale

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/05/02

We love it when a new show has its premiere up north so A Knight's Tale making its debut at the Manchester Opera House is a big win. Listen to find out what we loved about this insanely fun adaptation of the film, with bonus spelling demonstrations and the joy of an opportunity to remember The Great British Bake Off Musical. A Knight's Tale is on until May 10th so book your tickets now!

Episode 102: Rent

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/04/18

We're back! Don't worry. Although maybe, like when Roger moves to Santa Fe in 'Rent,' you didn't actually notice we'd gone anywhere. We saw the fantastic Inspired by Theatre stage Jonathan Larson's hit musical in York, which somehow inspired this random conversation covering 'Friends,' Jeremy Jordan and, somewhat inevitably, Pringles.

Episode 101: Ballet Shoes x Little Women

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/04/04

Are you ready to hear the word "lovely" 800? Then you're okay to press 'play' on this episode. From the National Theatre's big Christmas show to a wonderful amateur production in a tiny theatre in York, we're giving you the full theatrical experience today, along with some nonsense about Funko figures, parking, Christian Pale and a theatre-going first for both of us.

Episode 100: Clueless

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/03/28

It's our 100th episode! A full century of musical theatre nonsense! Not a hundred years, obviously. We mark this momentous occasion with a shiny new show and adaptation of a 90s classic - Clueless. Spoiler; we loved it. You'll observe much quoting of the film in this episode, as well as a wild piece of hypocrisy in terms of whether musical songs need to be memorable. Whatever!

00:20:14

Episode 99: The Devil Wears Prada

Stage Appropriate (A Musical Theatre Podcast) ·

2025/03/21

The Devil might indeed wear Prada, but does she have any good songs? 'Not really' is the answer to that question, which was sad for contrarians like us as we were quite keen to disagree with everyone who doesn't like this show. In amongst the savage criticism (i.e. comparisons to Mildred Hubble), there's intense discussion of Bisto and, for some reason, Katy clearly in the midst of losing her voice.
