Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from January 24, 2020 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).

Ah, just realized you are continuing the song for every year theme. So no shows 1944 to 1952? Since I've been busy you may have already explained that.
