Welcome to this bonus instalment of the WhatsOnStage Podcast!

In this bumper episode, we are celebrating the world of new musicals with two great insights into the experience of staging new work. In the first part, we bring you our on-stage discussion with Jordan Luke Gage, Katy Richardson and Ben Tomalin, the lead music team of Redcliffe, Gage’s brand new musical having its world premiere at Southwark Playhouse Borough. Please note this was recorded from the side of the stage.

In part two, we head across the Atlantic to talk to Sam Tutty and Christiani Pitts, the two “strangers” bring baked goods to the masses in the five-star musical Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York), playing now on Broadway – ahead of this Sunday’s Tony Awards.

Sarah Crompton and Alex Wood host a weekly series on all things theatrical. News, views, frank exchanges and lists offer an unmissable guide to what’s happening on stage (and in film and on television) now, in the past and in future.

The podcast can be listened to on various streaming platforms – including Apple Podcasts and Audible. Make sure you subscribe so you never miss an episode!
