Is Everything On Broadway The Same?? with ELERI WARD
"A joy and a delight!" That's me talking about Eleri Ward, our guest on the pod today! A musical theatre girl at heart, she blew up during the pandemic after she recorded an album of Sufjan Stevens inspired Soundheim covers in her closet. You may have also seen her performance at Miscast 23, or caught her in the Florence version of Gatsby which we discuss in this episode! We also dish about pedestrian lyrics, singing in the groove, how you don't need to know how to do something to do it, and the time she had to pee during her encore. We get into a deep discussion about getting inventive on Broadway and about staying authentic as we discuss the musical she is writing, and about how it's creating a new path in terms of what we think a musical should sound like. And I challenge Eleri to mash up different composers with different genres and it gets straight silly so make sure to stay till the end! Please RATE REVIEW AND SUBSCRIBE! And tell a fellow theatre lover to come on over and join us.

It’s Broadway Bitch is a place for the theatre folk to gather and dilly dally. Your host, comedian Casey Balsham, will ask the hard hitting questions like what jellicle cat are you most attracted to, and what happens if you have to use the bathroom when they call places?
It’s BB’s goal is to have some laughs with the Broadway community and aims to avoid questions about how you got started and why you wanted to be an actor. We’re more interested in your Taco Bell order and if you find child actors as creepy as we do. The show draws inspiration from
Between Two Ferns and Chicken Shop Date with a little Watch What Happens Live mixed in so you know there’s gonna be juicy gossip…but at it’s heart, it’s a love letter to theatre.
