Jesse McAnally / Hello Again - Original Cast Recording (1994)
Podcaster and filmmaker Jesse McAnally is here for a musical about sexuality based on an early 20th-century play that is NOT Spring Awakening and the movie based on that musical that is also not Spring Awakening but does have Audra McDonald, T.R. Knight, and Martha Plimpton and that’s very good. (We do jump between the movie and the stage show a lot.)
Topics include: leitmotif, The Wild Party, Mandy, Marla Singer,
“post-coital enlightenment,” and do the author(s) of this musical know what this show/movie.
