Marta & Mandy are joined by “cathedral deans and musical theatre queens” Nathan LeRud and Peter Elliott, the hosts of The Gospel of Musical Theatre, a podcast that takes a deep dive into musicals classic and contemporary, examining the intersection of musical theatre, spirituality, culture, and justice.
In this episode, we talk about performing and authenticity in our liturgical work. Nathan and Peter give a thoughtful exegesis of the musical Oklahoma! as an example of the kinds of discussions they have on the podcast. We discuss the ways that exploring these beloved musicals, in much the way that exploring the bible, forces us to ask questions about what is redeemable about our beloved stories, and what simply isn’t. What does it take to love our favorite musicals, and our biblical stories, more wholeheartedly and more honestly? This is an episode that you don’t want to miss!
