Episode 91: Hadestown (w/ Lindsey Anton-Wood)

On the railroad line on the road to Hell there was a radio-station, And there were two young women chattering away And everybody heard and everybody saw BYWAP! podcastin' again.

It's an old song, it's an old tale. But we sing it anyway. Today Stephanie is joined by BYWAP's very own Lindsey as we take on Broadway and indulgently bring you the BYWAP take on Hadestown: The Musical by Anais Mitchell.

Join us as Lindsey and Stephanie bring a new level of unhinged to the podcast, contemplate how Greek myths are retold for modern audiences, lament over how good Broadway shows are, and come together over accepting that "His Kiss, the Riot" is the best villain song in the breadth of this lyrical masterpiece.

Things have changed, but we're changing with it. Donate. Sign petitions. Support Black-owned businesses. Challenge racism. Educate yourselves. Listen. Speak. Repatriate. Stay Safe. Don't Touch Your Face. Wash Your Hands.
