Putting It Together

Feels appropriate doesn't it? Micah Mooney returns to discuss a song that was added to the show for the first London production, and has stayed ever since. Is it essential or extraneous?

What is Putting It Together?

This is a podcast about Stephen Sondheim's entire body of work show by show and song by song. Each week Kyle Marshall invites an expert to discuss a Sondheim song in-depth. Together they discover the humour, how the songs inform character, and any hidden meanings. Most importantly they try to understand the man behind the music, the Shakespeare of our time, as best they can.
