Friend of the podcast, repeat guest, and genuine ray of sunshine Joanna McKee passed away today and I’m at a loss. Listen to her talk about the musical Anastasia and hear the joy in her heart.
originally released: March 25, 2020
original notes:
Joanna works in the Education Department at the Kennedy Center and she is here to take us to school about a show that neither has its facts straight nor respects the emotional implications of said facts. But, y'know, royalty!
Topics include: Frozen 2, Gleb, Starlight Express, Gleb, eating the rich, Gleb, disregarding history, and seriously what is up with Gleb?
Featured recordings: Anastasia - Original Broadway Cast Recording (2017)

Join us on PATREON to get our patrons-only podcast The Original Cast at the Movies? This month we've got Kenny Neal (Starlight Express, et al.) and Joanna McKee (this episode) talking about a musical adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera that has to be seen to be believed (and even then maybe not): Phantom of the Paradise (1974).
