This week, we talk about:

Nilaja Sun’s one-woman play No Child, recently performed at Theatreworks,
and the National Theatre’s touring production of One Man, Two Guvnors, which was part of the Melbourne Theatre Company season.
We discuss whether shows that fake a ‘spontaneous’ breaking of the fourth wall are dishonest,
Tyson talks about the time he saw a dancer fall into the orchestra pit
and Jelly fires up her beloved audio of Patti LuPone yelling at the audience.

We play a game of ‘Comps and a Time Machine’ and imagine trips back in time to see shows including
It’s A Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s Superman
Patti in Evita,
Liza and Chita in The Rink, and
Toni Collette and Mandy Patinkin in LaChiusa’s The Wild Party.
