Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from March 17, 2023 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Listener Gregory:

When I eat out or go to a bar, I often read a book, and someone inevitably asks what I’m reading. I am convinced that the large majority of these people never read themselves, but they somehow think they will be familiar with the book.

I guess Bert aspired to a life in theater at the time of "Cabaret", but by the middle of the 70s, he was a game-show host. I frankly could use some of Bert's resilience in my own life.
