My Book – sung by Carolee Carmello

Episode #19: Carolee Carmello wouldn’t let me gush about her on the podcast as much as I wanted, so I’m going to have to do it here! Carolee and I met doing a production of Grease at Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera in 1989, and her career since then has been continuously and completely jam-packed with… Continue reading My Book – sung by Carolee Carmello

When It Comes to You – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

Bonus Episode #8: Wow, I can’t believe it’s almost the end of the podcast! When I started this bad boy, it seemed like such a long road ahead of me, and now here it is, just weeks from the GRAND FINALE! OK, enough sentimental talk. I’ll save that for the actual last episode. I’m here… Continue reading When It Comes to You – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

Lament – sung by Megan Mullally

Episode #20: I can’t imagine a better person to have as my final special guest star than the super-special star of TV’s Will and Grace, Megan Mullally. Megan and I met twelve years ago when we were mere children performing on Broadway in our respective revivals, Megan in Grease and myself in Damn Yankees. Soon… Continue reading Lament – sung by Megan Mullally

Giving Thanks – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

Bonus Episode #9: Wow, I can’t believe this is the last episode! Doing this podcast has been such a wonderful experience for me. I’ve had the great privilege of hearing my songs performed by the creamiest of the crop, I’ve received beautiful emails from some very kind and supportive listeners, and I’ve even sold a… Continue reading Giving Thanks – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

Man in the Moon – sung by Nancy Anderson

Special Episode #1: When I decided I wanted to use “Man in the Moon” for a *special* podcast episode, it came to me in about a millisecond who HAD to sing it: Nancy Anderson. Not only because she’s an amazing talent and friend, but also because no one captures the sound of the 20’s and… Continue reading Man in the Moon – sung by Nancy Anderson

Vonce – sung by Michael McElroy

Special Episode #2: I’m so thrilled to be joined today by the uber-talented and outrageously foxy Michael McElroy. You probably remember his stand-out, Tony-nominated performance as Jim in the Deaf West/Roundabout revival of Big River a few seasons ago. Or perhaps you have been enjoying his fantastic performances on the original cast recordings of Michael… Continue reading Vonce – sung by Michael McElroy

The Core of Ponte – sung by Kate Shindle

Special Episode #6: Kate Shindle may have come to our attention first as Miss America 1998, but she has clearly staked out a place of her own in the musical theatre world. She’s appeared on Broadway in Jekyll and Hide, headlined as Sally Bowles in the Sam Mendes/Rob Marshall revival of Cabaret, and originated the… Continue reading The Core of Ponte – sung by Kate Shindle

Valentine – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

Special Episode #8: It’s the day before Valentines Day, and I thought I’d offer up this little musical “Valentine,” even in the wake of the performance of Anti-Valentines, the 24 Hour Musical that I wrote with Julia Jordan during one long, harrowing night last weekend to benefit The Exchange. After listening to my chat about… Continue reading Valentine – sung by Jeff Blumenkrantz

My Heart Was Set on You – sung by Sutton Foster

Special Episode #7: It’s been so long since I’ve done one of these episodes that I omitted a word from my intro! (Did anyone catch it?) I’m thrilled to welcome back the incomparable Sutton Foster. Not just a ridiculous talent, but also one of the warmest, most generous people with whom I’ve had the privilege… Continue reading My Heart Was Set on You – sung by Sutton Foster
