This episode, we have some chit-chat about the Tony nominations! Then, Tyson has finally made Jelly watch the 1981 Jim Sharman/Richard O’Brien musical Shock Treatment. The trauma is still fresh. Does anyone know the story behind this bizarre fi

Long time no cha-cha, but Stage Door Pod is back! We revisit some Melbourne shows from the last month or so. Cho Cho at the Arts Centre was a valiant attempt at a bilingual opera/musical that sadly didn’t quite come together, though we loved Ha
We chat about the casting of three upcoming musicals in Australia: Les Miserables, Rocky Horror and Opera Australia’s The King and I. How about that awkwardly racist casting of Teddy Tahu Rhodes as an Asian man? Jelly’s not impressed. Speaking
This week: Bat Boy. We enjoy Laurence O’Keefe‘s score and the quirky tone but don’t quite know how to take the creepy stuff in Act 2. (Jelly makes demands about a new ending. Yet again.) Tyson finds the MTC production of Rupert is rather lackin
