Tomorrow is a latter day, but Mary and Steven can't wait that long to give you even more gospel on this amazing show. From The Top! gives another Show Notes on their coverage of The Book Of Mormon. Notes From A Director - Steven keeps it short and sweet unlike some unwarranted visits from Elders can be. Actors Nightmare - Mary talks about the relevance of this show and why these characters at their core are important to be seen in a larger-than-life stage experience, and then they both rave about the music with some fun inside stories. Quick Cast - Only three people up for roles this week, but did Steven and Mary let divine inspiration lead the way or did they allow Satan to cloud their judgment? What If? What if our Elders we female missionaries? That might change the game to something... incredible. So grab a cup of hot cocoa or Tang and enjoy the hilarious, irreverent musings of our cohost's mission to bring this musical to the world. Happy Listening! FOLLOW US!

...There will be hissing. =^.^= This week in Show Notes proves difficult as our dynamic duo fights like cats... about CATS. The usually as finicky as a cat, Steven, has rose-colored glasses or had too much catnip, as he's in love...with this film. Mary... is left scarred and tattered worse than a catfight with Macavity, as if she herself were Grizabella lurking in the streets. Notes From a Director is thinner than a whisker with a few clarifications from our duo's main coverage. Actors Nightmare delves into some TS Eliot discussion and they really get past the cream layer and into the luscious whole milk of the film and all its hair-raising reactions. Quick Cast, or "Quick Cats", is different this week and Mary and Steven finally come together to make some Jellicle decisions of their own. What If? changes the ending, and takes a "conjuring turn".

Hello all you lovelies! Steven and Mary need to "take a break" (thanks Hamilton) this week, so we are going to pause on the show notes for CATS. They know you're *dying* to hear the final... final.. thoughts on this show, but good things come to those who wait.
Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark? Are you able to sit through this entire show without needing an adult? Or do you just try and erase this show from your... memory...? From The Top! takes on CATS. =^.^= Steven has poured over the TS Eliot poems, the history of the feline, and the circumstances of how this show came to be which has uncovered some Cat-tastic discoveries, and some that will make you feel like you huffed some catnip. Mary has questions, no answers, and feels like she's the one who's been abandoned in a junkyard full of lycra and a death cult. Walk away with some knowledge to share with your other CATS-STANS or love to hate-listen at every conjuring turn. So grab a bowl of cream and some fancy feast for the trip to the Heaviside Layer cause it starts right meow. Happy Listening! FOLLOW US!

The Style Section is placed and the plastic draping is up as Steven and Mary navigate the psycho within themselves in this week's episode of From The Top! covering Brett Easton Ellis's novel, Christian Bale's Cult Classic, and a musical that may have been axed a little too early. That's right... Turn up Huey Lewis and the News, and enjoy going a little crazy with American Psycho: The Musical. Steven returns again to the booth with Mary and all that can be said is... They went a little Psycho... Steven quotes the author verbatim on how this story of yuppie culture came to fruition and wishes Duncan Sheik hadn't been able to book his reservation as composer, and Mary finds vindication in such our main, sinfully delicious, character, and attempts to understand what was going on in the minds of these insane 80's tropes. Hell... Even Elmo makes a cameo Tom Cruise would be proud of. So sit back and don't drink that glass of really great champagne, turn up your Walkman, and enjoy the honey almond body wash aroma as you dive into madness for a spell. Happy Listening! FOLLOW US!

The only thing more rickety than a wall made of furniture in this week's episode of From The Top! are Mary and Steven as they fight their own dramatic French angst to get through a review of the iconic and, dare they say, (in an overly exaggerated French accent) superb spectacle that is Les Misérables. Steven digs up the history of what was happening in France for the setting of this musical and shares some insight into Victor Hugo as to why he would write his second popular work about a June Rebellion. Mary focuses on the major themes of this show and how the characters are affected by worldly forces, trying to understand what makes her so tepid about such a high-energy, very awe-inspired, production that Cameron Mackintosh has swept the world with. So visit the Thenardier's Inn and sit a spell (just check your pockets before you leave) and listen in to some great discussion over a thief, a love triangle for the ages, a lady of the night and Rapunz-... I mean, Joanna-... I mean... her daughter, and a hyper-focused po-po. Happy Listening! FOLLOW US! For all the latest content and fun things to come, subscribe, hit that like button, and follow.
