MUSICALTALK, THE UK'S INDEPENDENT MUSICAL THEATRE PODCAST
from London, created by real musical fans, for real musical fans
|
Since its début in September 2006, MusicalTalk has gone from strength
to strength. Established as an independent podcast for musical
theatre, with the aim of educating and entertaining listeners,
MusicalTalk has attracted many renowned and illustrious guests. In December 2006, we received the accolade of podcast of the week in the The Times. The long list of guests includes Alan Menken, William David
Brohn, Stephen Sondheim, Jerry Herman, Stephen Schwartz, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Tim Burton, Alan Rickman, Marc Shaiman, William Finn, Stiles and Drewe, Julian Fellowes, Summer Strallen, Jeff Marx, Gerard Alessandrini, Stephanie J. Block and Richard Thomas.
The quality of our interviews and commentary has helped the podcast reach the top of the iTunes
chart for theatre podcasts. You can find some of our personal
highlight episodes listed on the home page. As well as its bustling
guest list, the show also discusses a wide range of subjects relevant
to musical theatre such as the realities of life in musical theatre,
reviews of the latest shows both on tour and in the West End, and
analysis of composers past, present and future.
From its humble beginnings, the show now has an
array of both regular and guest presenters who present both from its
London studio as well as, on occasion, on location. Originally
presented by Nick Hutson and Andy Edwards the show was joined in early
2007 by Tim Saward and Thos Ribbits who are among the most regular
presenters. For more information on all the MusicalTalk team visit the
presenters' pages.
We deliver the show both via MP3 on the website - but you can also
subscribe via iTunes and get each show every week as it is released.
Don't worry if you're a new listener, we archive all the episodes on
this very website make sure you go and have a look at the previous

With a growing audience located all over the world and many more
exciting guests lined up for the coming months, 2008 is set to be
another bumper year for MusicalTalk.
