Connor and Dylan are joined by Kevin Csolak (The Outsiders, Audra Gypsy). Live from the Bernard B. Jacobs… it’s Kevin! Having been introduced by beloved 2x DRAMA. guest Solea Pfeiffer, the twins are so delighted to finally chat with this star. Kevin, who’s currently starring as Bob in The Outsiders on Broadway, speaks on his journey with the Tony-winning Best Musical: from workshops to now playing a principal role full-time. You knowww we dig into Audra Gypsy, as our guest sang, danced, and acted his heart out as Tulsa in the glorious revival at the Majestic Theatre. We hear Kevin’s side of the epic love story with his girlfriend Solea. You’ll be swooning! Something’s coming, y’all… and it’s the burning tea on the West Side Story revival AND the Spielberg film. Kevin appeared in both, so we chat about the controversial (and ahead of its time) Broadway production, featuring direction by Ivo van Howe and starring Isaac Cole Powell (who gave an orgasmic “Maria” performance every night). Hear about working with Spielberg, highlights from the movie set, and a sneaky story about the “Officer Krupke” scene. Chess, Mean Girls, and little Kevin’s Broadway debut in The Grinch are all included in this all-timer episode. We adore Kevin, and his performance (and khakis) cannot be missed in The Outsiders through December 14!

Dylan and Connor are joined by Morgan Dudley (Hadestown, Descendants: The Rise of Red). She takes us on the road that led her to this moment: starring as Eurydice in Hadestown on Broadway. We get into backstage (and onstage!) antics, Morgan’s show diary, what it’s like performing “Flowers” each night, the eight-show-a-week grind, and audience reactions. Which former Eurydices gave Morgan some advice? And what helpful direction did Rachel Chavkin provide? The entire principal cast changed over for the first time in the show’s history, as Morgan stars alongside Oliver nominee Jack Wolfe, Tony nominee/Friend of the Pod Rebecca Naomi Jones, and Tony winner Paolo Szot. GAGGY. Morgan slayed in Descendants: The Rise of Red, Jagged Little Pill on Broadway, and even writes original music. Don’t worry, we get into it ALL. Manifestations and zodiac signs play a big role, y’all! The pop culture chatter also includes the QUEEN Brandy, Gen V on Amazon, Katy Perry’s new single “bandaids”, and some true crime docs. Stick around for BTS stories with Jack Wolfe. You’re going to LOVE this conversation and Morgan. Catch her at the Walter Kerr now!
