Mike Isaacson, Currently in his ninth season and only the third person to hold this position in The Muny's 103-year history. To date, he has produced 56 Muny shows, 23 of which had never been on the Muny stage before. He has collaborated at The Muny with many Tony award winners and breakthrough talents, including Christian Borle, Colin Donnell, Marcia Milgrom Dodge, Gary Griffin, Heather Headley, Jennifer Holliday, Denis Jones, Laura Michelle Kelly, Dan Knecht- ges, Beth Leavel, Norm Lewis, Beth Malone, Kathleen Marshall, Patti Murin, Josh Rhodes, Emily Skinner and Ken Page. The Riverfront Times wrote, “Under the leadership of executive producer Mike Isaacson, the quality of Muny productions rose like the proverbial phoenix.” The St. Louis Post-Dispatch named him “Theatre Artist of the Year,” noting that by “staging one impressive production after another, he made The Muny simultaneously hip and – be- lieve it – important to our community.” During Isaacson's tenure, The Muny has produced new developmental productions of Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn, Lerner and Loewe's Paint Your Wagon and The Unsinkable Molly Brown. During its record-breaking 100th season, The Muny became the first theatre in the world to produce the legendary Jerome Robbins' Broadway, doing unprecedented archival work on both the artistic and business side. During that same season, The Muny produced the U.S. regional premiere of Jersey Boys. Isaacson has changed the look and feel of a Muny production, overseeing a transformation in every aspect of pro- duction that culminated in 2019 with the arrival of the theatre's extraordinary James S. Mc- Donnell stage, a state-of-the art stage house that includes revolutionary LED technology, automated sets and a host of other innovations. During the summer of 2020, when The Muny was closed due to COVID-19, Mike produced and created The Muny 2020 Variety Hour Live!, an online show that reached more than a worldwide audience of over 400,000. With Kristin Caskey, Isaacson has produced more than 23 Broadway musicals and plays, national tours, off-Broadway and London productions. All told, his productions have received more than 122 Tony nominations and 34 Tony Awards. Last year, he produced the highly ac- claimed David Byrne's American Utopia, which made every major “Top 10” list, and became a highly acclaimed film by Spike Lee on HBO, for which he also served as an executive produc- er. Just as the COVID-19 shutdown of Broadway began, he was awaiting the first preview of Neil Simon's Plaza Suite, starring Mathew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker. Also, during the shutdown, Isaacson served as a supporting producer of the acclaimed re- vival of The Unsinkable Molly Brown at New York's Transport Group. Other career highlights include: Fun Home (2015 Tony Award, Best Musical; 2018 Olivier nominee for Best Musical), Legally Blonde the Musical (2011 Olivier Award, Best Musical), Thoroughly Modern Millie (2002 Tony Award, Best Musical), Red (2010 Tony Award, Best Play), The Humans (2016 Tony Award, Best Play), If/Then, starring Idina Menzel, Lanford Wilson's Burn This, starring Adam Driver and Kerri Russell (2019 Tony nomination for Best Revival of a Play), Bring It On: The Musical (2013 Tony nomination for Best Musical), A Doll's House 2 (2017 Tony nomination for Best Play), You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (1999 Tony nomination for Best Revival of a Musical), The Seagull, starring Kristin Scott Thomas, Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard, Caroline, or Change (Tony nomination for Best Musical); One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (2001 Tony Award, Best Revival of a Play) and Death of a Salesman (1999 Tony Award, Best Revival of a Play). For the Independent Presenters Network, Isaacson served as producer for Spamalot (2005 Tony Award, Best Musical), Ragtime (revival) and The Color Purple (2006 Tony nomination for Best Musical). He has received the St. Louis Arts and Education Council's Award for Excellence in the Arts and has been awarded The Broadway League's and Theatre Development Fund's Commercial Theater Institute “Robert Whitehead” Award for excellence in producing. He has served on the board of governors and executive committee of The Broadway League and received the Samuel J. L'Hommedieu Award. He has also received the Equality Award from the St. Louis Chapter of Human Rights Campaign.

Welcome back! This episode of Been Drinkin' Been Watching is all about the movie Sweeney Todd! This movie Stars Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Cater, Alen Rickman and Laura Michelle Kelly. Directed by Tim Burton. Cheers everyone!
Putting goodness out into the world to encourage other people, is the goal of this Olivier Award winner, Laura Michelle Kelly. This elegant mama has graced the stages of the West End in London and Broadway, in addition to countless theaters all over the world. Best known for playing the title role of Mary Poppins, she has played the role of mother several times, but became a mother herself a year ago. Her son, Raphael, made his appearance early and while that surprised her and she overcame challenges of the NICU, he is a healthy and active boy who is turning one this October! She encourages actors to live life and not wait for certain roles or boxes to check. Her marriage and motherhood came later in life, but she waited for the timing that worked for her. Motherhood has lit her up and also exhausted her, but she wouldn't change it for the world. It was such an honor to chat with this mama, a role model of mine and the sweetest soul out there.

Dans ce septième épisode de Chronique Disney - Le Podcast, Franck, Fred, Laurent, Léo et Victoire proposent un tour d'horizon des comédies musicales ou musicals Disney. Après une présentation de la genèse et de l'essor de Disney Theatrical Productions, une première analyse sur la transposition des films d'animation à la scène évoque de grands classiques tels que La Belle et la Bête, Le Roi Lion ou encore La Petite Sirène et Le Bossu de Notre-Dame. Si certaines adaptations s'avèrent très réussies, ce n'est malheureusement pas le cas de toutes... Il n'en reste pas moins que, souvent, ces spectacles permettent d'apporter de la profondeur à l'histoire ou aux personnages grâce à de nouvelles chansons, souvent composées par le compositeur original du film d'animation, à l'image d'Alan Menken pour ne citer que lui. Les adaptations sur scène de films live sont également évoquées : le cas particulier de Mary Poppins est ainsi abordé mais aussi de moins connus mais tout aussi réussis comme Newsies, ou au contraire, plutôt ratés, comme On The Record. Enfin, les futurs projets de Disney Theatrical Productions sont listés étant précisé que, depuis l'enregistrement de cet épisode, de nouvelles productions scéniques ont été annoncées comme Hercule, démontrant par là même que l'amour pour les comédies musicales Disney n'est pas prêt de se tarir ! Merci à tou-te-s pour l'attention portée à cet épisode de Chronique Disney - Le Podcast ! Merci à Hugo pour avoir supervisé l'enregistrement de cet épisode. Le meilleur des comédies musicales Disney de Broadway et du West End est à découvrir dans notre playlist Spotify dédiée.

GEORGE STILES, músico y ANTHONY DREWE, letrista son un equipo de compositores conocidos como STILES & DREWE que en sus años de estudiantes y tras asistir a una representación de “Sweeney Todd” de Stephen Sondheim, decidieron dedicarse a escribir musicales y en Marzo de 1984 reservaron un teatro para ensayar y estrenar “Tutankamon”, su primer musical que tuvo gran éxito entre sus compañeros que no descartan la idea de llevarlo algún día a Londres. El sagaz productor Cameron Mackintosh entró en sus vidas y les produjo “Just so”, basado en relatos de Ruyard Kipling que estrenaron en el Watermill Theatre y ganó en 1985 el premio Vivian Ellis, representándose en USA y en 2004 en el festival de Chichester. Luego vendría "Honk!", basado en "El patito feo" que ganó el premio Olivier al mejor musical del año, venciendo a “El rey león” y “Mamma mia”. En 1996 fueron requeridos por Cameron Mackintosh para componer canciones para el musical “Mary Poppins”, adaptando además los canciones originales que compusieran los Hermanos Sherman para la película, a la que seguirían “Soho cinders", de la que hemos hablado en el "Cuéntame un musical de este mes y "Betty Blue Eyes”, "La mitad de seis peniques”, con canciones suyas reforzando la partitura original y dos adaptaciones musicales de los clásicos "Viajes con mi tía” y “El viento en los sauces”.

You guys!!! it’s been a while since I’ve gotten butterflies before an interview, but I have to say, I was NERVOUS before meeting today’s guest, Laura Michelle Kelly. I mean, you know, she was the ORIGINAL west end Marry Poppins, She won an Olivier, she was in the 'Sweeney Todd' movie, she British, beautiful and perfect. But then, of course, she was disarmingly charming and friendly. Her dressing room at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater where she is currently starring in 'Finding Neverland,' is a little magic fairy kingdom with tents and tepees and maps of Neverland. I never wanted to leave. Laura made her West End debut as a baguette—yes, the bread—in the West End production of 'Beauty and the Beas't when she was 16 years old. In the West End, She went on to star in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 'Whistle Down the Wind,' as well as 'Sped the Plow,' 'Lord of the Rings,' and of course 'Mary Poppins,' for which she won her Olivier. She made her Broadway debut as Hodel in the 2004 production of 'Fiddler on the Roof,' She later took over the role of Mary in the Broadway production of 'Mary Poppins,' and now she’s back on Broadway in the as Sylvia, the role she created last season in the smash hit 'Finding Neverland.' She was such a delight. Enjoy!
