Episode Synopsis

This week on MusicalTalk, Nick returns to The Rocky Horror Show for the first time in 25 years and shares his reflections on the cult classic’s enduring appeal, high camp, and raucous audience participation. Then, it’s off to the London Coliseum, where Nick and Hannah experience The Great Gatsby — but in a rare twist, it’s Nick who walks in knowing nothing about the show, while Hannah holds all the insight! Join them for a lively discussion of this ambitious new production, the surprises it held, and how it reimagines F. Scott Fitzgerald’s iconic world for the stage.
