Show Notes

On another very special episode of "Brenden and Brian Explain Musicals to me that I Should Know, But Don't" we dive into all things Wild Party.  And not just a singular Wild Party, no, no, two different versions that just happened to premiere in New York City during the same 2000 season.  Join us as they break down the differences between Andrew Lippa's Wild Party and Michael John LaChiusa's Wild Party and how exactly they came to exist at the Exact. Same. Time.
