'Chinese and Any Other Asian.' On official documents, a vast range of identities in the East and South East Asian (ESEA) population in the UK is reduced to a single vague checkbox, an act of Othering with a history several centuries in the making.

Exploring the history of the ESEA population in the UK, which spans on the one hand Empire, violence, and appropriation, and on the other, creativity, fusion, and multiplicity, Anna Sulan reveals a multifaceted history.

Originally aired as episode 198 on March 22, 2022. Trigger warning: This episode contains discussion of eating disorders. At the age of 25, Eva Noblezada is a two time Tony Award nominee, a Grammy Award winner, and a WhatsOnStage Award winning actress and singer. She starred as Kim in Cameron Mackintosh's London revival of Miss Saigon when she was 17 years old, and shortly after played Eponine in the West End revival of Les Misérables. Eva later reprised her performance as Kim in the first Broadway revival of Miss Saigon (also her Broadway debut). In 2019, she made her film debut in Yellow Rose starring alongside Lea Salonga, who originated the role of Kim in Miss Saigon. Eva originated the role of Eurydice in Hadestown on Broadway, and it's in Hadestown where she continues to lead, and take audiences “way down under the ground”.  Eva speaks candidly about her past toxic relationship with the word “perfect”, how it affected her life as a 17 year old all on her own abroad, leading Cameron Mackintosh's London revival of Miss Saigon, and why she felt like she was “falling for years”. She opens up about living with anxiety, panic attacks, and body dysmorphia, and how she's learned to come back to herself at those times, and ask the important questions - “Are we in danger? - We're okay”. Talking about Hadestown, Eva shares her thoughts on Eurydice (and playing Eurydice), and her love for the “extra layer of consciousness” that can be seen throughout the whole show.  In this episode, we talk about:  Growing up Filipino Mexican, and discovering musical theater  A strong work ethic, instilled by her father  The mental and physical toll of an 8 show schedule  Meeting Tara Rubin at the Jimmy Awards Pole dancing as fitness, and how society sexualizes women  Her “all or nothing” way of life  Connect with Eva: IG: @livevamaria Twitter: @EvaNoblezada Connect with The Theatre Podcast: Support us on Patreon: Patreon.com/TheTheatrePodcast Twitter & Instagram: @theatre_podcast Facebook.com/OfficialTheatrePodcast TheTheatrePodcast.com Alan's personal Instagram: @alanseales Email me at feedback@thetheatrepodcast.com.

It was wonderful to reminisce and hear about not only his extraordinary career but how it has been impacted by the burgeoning career of his remarkable son, Steven Jr., a recent college grad and certainly a star in the making.

The very first time I saw WICKED was when the national tour came to Cleveland in February 2008. The actress playing Glinda at the time was Katie Rose Clarke. As fate would have it, I was recently offered the chance to speak with her and Steven Jamail about their brand new song connected to their upbringing in Houston, Texas titled 'Margarita Christmas.' So naturally, I said yes. Katie Rose Clarke made her Broadway debut almost 20 years ago when she took over for Kelli O'Hara as Clara Johnson in THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA, where she even got to be a part of the PBS broadcast. Her subsequent credits include Hannah Campbell in ALLEGIANCE with George Takei and Lea Salonga, Ellen in the 2017 revival of MISS SAIGON, and most recently as Beth in the Tony-winning revival of MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG starring Jonathan Groff, Daniel Radcliffe, and Lindsay Mendez. Not to mention that she also happens to be Broadway's longest-running Glinda in WICKED. Steven Jamail is a composer, producer, musical director who has done arrangements and orchestrations that have been performed on Oprah, Howard Stern, Rachel Ray, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, Martha Stewart, The NBC Tree Lighting at Rockefeller Center, and the American Songbook series at Lincoln Center. He has also created arrangements and played for Bebe Winans, Rosie O'Donnell, Jessie Mueller, Jeremy Abbott, and Adam Rippon. He serves as the regular music director for Orfeh, Teal Wicks, Danielle Hope, and Lea Michele, having just recently orchestrated and conducted Ms. Michele's lauded Carnegie Hall debut and Life in Music Tour. He is the Associate Artistic Director of O'Donnell's foundation, Rosie's Theater Kids in NYC. *I do not own any of the content used in this video.

Luke Evans says growing up in the South Wales valleys was tough at times. He was an only child in a family of Jehovah's Witnesses, bullied at school both for his religion – and for being gay. But, that quiet boy from the valleys who tried to blend into the background is now a huge international star. He shot to fame on the West End stage in the early 2000s – with roles in Rent, Miss Saigon and Les Mis. Since then, he's acted in Hollywood blockbusters like Beauty and the Beast, Fast & Furious Six and The Hobbit. Now in his mid-forties, Luke says he is happy, fulfilled and looking forward – so what songs has he chosen as his Inheritance Tracks.Inherited: Saturday Night at the Movies by The Drifters Passed on: The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta FlackProducer: Ben Mitchell

Michelle Martin thinks Miss Saigon is an unmissable experience for any fan of musicals. With a cast that reflects Asia's diversity, this production is a fantastic retelling of a tale that has been reinterpreted by counteless stagings all across the globe. But this Cameron Mackintosh and Base Entertainment production  brings even more depth to star-crossed lovers Kim and Chris's devastating choices. Both profoundly moving, and unique, this production brings a new layer of understanding to a musical some of us may have first experienced some 23 years ago. This epic of doomed love, fierce parental instinct, patriotic zeal, the dignity of the everyman and woman, the clash of self-determination and tradition, all wrapped in music and lyrics that are too beautiful to ever forget, is a must watch.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Veel vrouwelijke Nederlandse wetenschappers uit de vorige eeuw wijdden hun leven aan de wetenschap, deden belangrijke ontdekkingen, maar kregen daar nooit de credits voor. Wie waren deze vrouwen? Wat dreef ze en welke obstakels moesten ze omzeilen? Wetenschapsjournalist Edda Heinsman dook voor de vijfdelige podcast Alles voor de wetenschap in archieven en ging in gesprek met nabestaanden en intimi, op zoek naar de levensverhalen van vijf van deze vrouwen: sterrenkundige Elsa van Dien (1914-2007), botanica en genetica Tine Tammes (1871-1947), scheikundige en stralingsdeskundige Antonia Korvezee (1899-1978), orthopedagoog Ida Frye (1909-2003) en natuurkundige Caroline Bleeker (1897-1985). Inge ter Schure spreekt met Heinsman over de vooroordelen, mannelijke tegenwerking, maar soms ook onbaatzuchtigheid en liefde die hun carrières in de weg stonden. Willem Nijholt, geboren in Indonesië, brak al jong door als acteur, zanger en danser. Hij speelde met Wim Sonneveld en Conny Stuart, werd bekend door zijn rollen in de jeugdserie Oebele, de speelfilm De Stille Kracht en het liedjesprogramma ‘Kun je nog zingen, zing dan mee'. Hij speelde eindeloos veel rollen in films, op toneel en televisie en stond vanaf begin jaren tachtig in musicals, waaronder Cabaret, Miss Saigon en Oliver. Ook publiceerde hij drie boeken, waaronder één met de correspondentie tussen hem en schrijver Gerard Reve. Maar ondanks alle roem en succes bleef de onzekerheid aan hem knagen. Coen Verbraak volgt zijn spoor terug. Hij sprak met acteur Frans Mulder, actrice Gerrie van der Klei, pianist/componist Frans Ehlhart en theaterproducent Joop van den Ende.  Wat blijft, na de dood van Willem Nijholt? ---- Redactie radio: Laura Iwuchukwu, Nina Ramkisoen, Geerte Verduijn, Jessica Zoghary, Lieke Bruins.

Dylan and Connor are joined by Katie Rose Clarke (Merrily We Roll Along, Wicked). Not a day has gone by that we haven't dreamed of having this LEGEND on the pod. After first meeting during a Wicked blizzard in Cleveland in 2008, Katie joins the twins to mention it ALL. Hear the story of Katie seeing her first Broadway show (Miss Saigon starring Lea Salonga) and then working with Lea years later. We talk all things Wicked, Carmen Cusack, and the process of crafting a story arc for Glinda. Katie shares the tale of making her Broadway debut, replacing Kelli O'Hara in The Light in the Piazza, then going on to star in Allegiance, Miss Saigon, and currently in Merrily We Roll Along. We get into her friendship with Jonathan Groff, Lindsay Mendez, and Daniel Radcliffe; and how Maria Friedman gave them the freedom to create their own journeys in the show. And some DRAMA: Bobby Berk leaves Queer Eye, Dylan loves Nyad, and a recommendation for Brie Larson's Lessons in Chemistry.

Lea Salonga was just 18 when she became an international theatre star, taking a leading role in the world premiere production of the musical Miss Saigon in 1989. Her performance - first in London, then on Broadway - won her Olivier and Tony awards. She has provided the singing voice for two Disney princesses, and has become a strong advocate for better Asian representation on stage and screen. She was born in Manila in the Philippines, where she made her professional stage debut in 1978 at the age of seven in a production of The King and I. Further roles in musicals followed, and she recorded a best-selling solo album when she was 10. Lea planned to become a doctor before she was invited to audition for Miss Saigon, and her immediate success launched a performing career in which she has made history many times. She was the first Asian woman to win a Tony for an acting role, the first Asian actor to star in Les Misérables, the first Filipino artist to sign a record deal with an international label and the first person to voice two different Disney princesses - Mulan and Jasmine in Aladdin, in which she sang A Whole New World, which won the Oscar for Best Original Song. She has appeared in numerous international stage productions, as well as television shows, films and singing tours. Earlier this year she starred in and made her debut as a producer on the musical Here Lies Love on Broadway: written by David Byrne and Fatboy Slim, it focuses on the life of Imelda Marcos, wife of Philippines dictator Ferdinand Marcos. In September, Lea returned to the London Stage in 'Old Friends' , a musical tribute to Stephen Sondheim.She has performed for six Filipino and four American presidents.
