Podcasts about hammerstein's the king

Happy New-ish Year, listeners, and hello, young lovers! After a few weeks away, shall we tell you what we think of one of the most romantic, epic musicals of all time — Rodgers and Hammerstein's "The King and I"? The 2018 West End production starring Queen Kelli O'Hara and Ken Watanabe is something wonderful — and we adore it so much we decided to start a season on musicals we love, to start off 2019 (and Valentine's) with a happy tune. The Broadway Babies will go over the backstage drama that surrounded this musical from the beginning, how iconic Ruthie Ann Miles' Lady Thiang is, the racial tensions both in and out of the show, etc. etc. etc. Now, come...shall we dance?
