It reveals how Peter, the Lost Boys, and Captain Hook came to find themselves in Neverland, and it puts a new character named Molly at the centre of the action.Also, the big sound of a cappella Sacred Harp singing will ring out in an Australian theatre this month in a new play called The Hall, and we pay tribute to our recent guest Roz Hervey, who has died.

Sara and I met through my husband (then boyfriend) when they lived together post-college. A beloved classmate of Adam's, we followed Sara's career as she stunningly bounced from National Tour to Broadway to Paper Mill or Nyack or wherever the work brought her, and at every turn she was nothing short of brilliant. Currently starring in the magnificent Broadway production of "Water for Elephants," Sara sat with me between shows to chat about her journey; the ups and downs, heartbreaks and roses. No one can attest more to the nonlinear nature of this business, and I defy you to find someone who's navigated it with more grace, poise, humor or self-awareness than this extraordinary artist. Sara has created roles in the Broadway productions of "Water For Elephants," "Seussical," "Nine" (Broadway revival, replacing Jane Krakowski as Carla), "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels," and tours of "The Addams Family," "Fosse," and "101 Dalmations." Sit back and enjoy one of the most stimulating conversations I've had about this business we call "Show."

We did play foes on TV but we're good friends in real life. And how could we not be? He was Sebastian on Glee! Grant just finished his run of Water For Elephants on Broadway in September and he and his wife welcomed their second child shortly after our conversation. Naturally, we talk a lot about being a parent, working in theater, being on a long-running TV show, and the changes of perspective he's gone through in his career.

If there's one lesson to take away from Rick Elice's life story, it's to never say no to a free lunch. He shares anecdotes from his past, including childhood memories of seeing theatre productions that got him to pursue acting and getting fired for his first Broadway show as an actor. While he's always loved theatre, Rick also looks back on the beginning of his advertising career, which happened at a musical's opening night at the Public Theatre where he found himself standing next to Matthew Serino. With so many successful stints and an amazing career trajectory, he likens himself to a pinball, getting flipped from one project to the next. Having written the book for Broadway's “The Addams Family”, he recalls the show's timeline and why the national tour became a much more successful version of the story then they had originally written. He talks about his latest work, “Water for Elephants”, and the show's universal themes of belonging and loss. He reflects on his personal experiences, including grief over the loss of his partner that deeply influenced his approach to writing the musical – emphasizing the importance of storytelling as a way to connect with the audience and to provide comfort to those who feel marginalized or unheard. Ultimately, he talks about his motivations and inspirations in life, citing the beauty of the world and his sense of his own unimportance as the main ones. Rick Elice is a four time Tony Award nominated author, a playwright, an actor, a teacher, and an entrepreneur who has been involved in the Broadway scene in one form or another since 1979. In 1982, he became the creative director of Serino Coyne, Inc., one of the top theatrical marketing agencies in New York, and then became a creative consultant for the Walt Disney Studio from 1999 to 2008. His first Broadway credit as a book writer aka playwright was “Jersey Boys”, which opened in 2005, and led him to write the stories, the books for the Broadway shows of “The Addams Family”, “Peter and the Starcatcher”, “The Cher Show”, and now, “Water for Elephants”, which just nabbed him his fourth Tony nomination. Rick is also writing the books for “The Princess Bride” musical, and “Smash” musical, among others.

This week we cover The Idea of You, Elieen, Water for Elephants (the movie AND the musical), Malignant, Bottoms, Shiva Baby, and Good Omens. It's another week with just Lauren and Kevin and it's a packed one. They kick off the episode on a bit of an Anne Hathaway bender with The Idea of You and Elieen. These are two VERY different experiences, but decent on all counts, at the least. Next up, Lauren takes us from film to stage with Water for Elephants, first discussing the excellent original film and then the less excellent broadway musical.  Kevin then turns the page from love story to horror story with the 2021 film, Malignant. It's a body horror flick with some great moments but a not always stellar delivery. Lauren saves the day by going to back to back comedy films starring Rachel Sennott, Bottoms and Shiva Baby. She liked the latter more than the former but both are likely worth a watch. Kevin finished the episode talking about the excellent BBC/Amazon series Good Omens. It's a fantastic tale of an angel and a demon who become best friends over the years and centuries who become the only beings alive that both know the end of days is coming AND want to stop it!

A lot has changed since Izzy McCalla first appeared in episode 38 back in 2019 and she's more than happy to share the latest news in her journey – from her early roles to now playing Marlena in "Water for Elephants." She reflects on how each role built her confidence and prepared her for new challenges, her tendency to gravitate towards ensemble pieces, and her ability to go back and forth between the comedic and dramatic genres. Izzy opens up about the challenges of replacing actors in established shows, the pressure of delivering in front of audiences, and the process of finding inner peace and self-acceptance. She shares an important lesson on being funny on stage, and that nothing kills comedy faster than hesitation and anxiety. Currently playing as Marlena in “Water for Elephants,” she talks about the character's complexities, and her evolving perspective on love, relationships, and self-worth. She also discusses her Haitian heritage and its personal connection to her role, sharing her family's history and how they immigrated to Haiti with the Danish circus. Izzy gets real as she opens up about vulnerability, self-discovery, her tendency to fix others, and the importance of setting boundaries while maintaining empathy as she navigates emotional growth. Izzy McCalla first appeared in episode 38 back in 2019 and our special 150th Pride episode in June of 2021. Since then, she has added more credits, including the Paper Mill Playhouse production of “Clue” and “Hercules”, and “Footloose” at the Kennedy Center, and was part of the closing cast of "Shucked" earlier this year. She's currently part of the recently opened production of “Water for Elephants” as Marlena.

We have a theme this month! Both of the musicals we're covering this April are powerful examples of "pastiche" in musical theatre. The way the composers of these shows reference styles and works of the past bring depth and context to their stories and characters. First up, the 2004 musical DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS, a show as raucous as it is sophisticated! Here to describe it as, "one of the greatest times of her life," is one of the musical's original stars, Sara Gettelfinger (SEUSSICAL, NINE, and currently WATER FOR ELEPHANTS). Sara joins us from backstage at the Imperial Theatre (where she originated the role of oil money heiress, Jolene Oakes) to share her memories of cast bonding and the joys of "not giving a f**k" in comedy.

This week, we come to you to present a double feature in an attempt to get through as many of the new Broadway musicals this season as we can before the Tonys. So join us as we go "Back in Time" to a show that opened last summer and then take it "Easy" with a show that just opened last week! Note: spoilers present throughout for both shows, along with discussion and spoilers for corresponding movies (00:00) Introduction (02:19) Back to the Future (22:31) Water for Elephants -- Despite Back to the Future winning the Olivier Award for Best Musical when it was in the West End, it ended up receiving lukewarm notices on Broadway. While we weren't impressed by many of the songs, it was still interesting to read through the song-by-song breakdown of the cast album (particularly that nugget of information about Jamie Lloyd being the original director). Cindy's impressions of circus-related stories hasn't been great, starting with the song in Matilda the Musical and peaking with Guillermo del Toro's Nightmare Alley. Some examples of the acrobatics in the show can be seen in the New York Times feature, as well as in their Good Morning America performance. If you ever wanted to know about running away to join the circus, Reddit has some answers for you. While this episode was recorded during late previews of Water for Elephants, reviews have since come out. Christine was shocked at Jesse Green's critic's pick and agreed much more with Sara Holdren's review on Vulture. While there's no cast album released yet, you can get a taste of more songs from the sitzprobe, part 1 and part 2. -- Music featured in this episode: Back to the Future: The Musical Apple Music / Spotify / Amazon Music Water for Elephants: Easy The Lion Has Got No Teeth Wild The Road Don't Make You Young — Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @BottomlessBway, our blog at https://bottomlessbway.home.blog, or email us at bottomlessbway@gmail.com!

Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) and I are book lovers and we've decided to do a monthly in-depth book discussion. Our 14th book is Water For Elephants, written by Sara Gruen, and next month we'll be chatting about Carolyn See's Making History. What's Water For Elephants about? "When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, drifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town. A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that he meets Marlena, the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, who is married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. He also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems untrainable until he discovers a way to reach her." Thanks for tuning in.

Even though the avatars of New York City have temporarily managed to stop the Woman in White from invading—and destroying the entire universe in the process—the mysterious capital "E" Enemy has more subtle powers at her disposal. A new candidate for mayor wielding the populist rhetoric of gentrification, xenophobia, and "law and order" may have what it takes to change the very nature of New York itself and take it down from the inside. In order to defeat him, and the Enemy who holds his purse strings, the avatars will have to join together with the other Great Cities of the world in order to bring her down for good and protect their world from complete destruction.

Have you been grinding it out, "paying your dues" on the job, sacrificing social and family life, hoping that one day it will pay off and you'll finally land the top level, “tentpole” gigs you've been dreaming about your whole career? Or maybe you're just starting your career and you're wondering how much you need to sacrifice in order to achieve your lifelong dream of winning major awards and if it's even worth it? Most importantly, perhaps you're constantly asking yourself: “Is it even possible to work as a successful creative professional and still enjoy spending time with family and friends, taking time off to enjoy vacations, and having time to pursue other interests and goals in life?” I can't think of anyone more qualified to answer these questions than my good friend, mentor, and Hollywood tentpole editor Alan Bell, ACE who has edited such films as The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Mockingjay (parts 1 &2), The Amazing Spider-Man, and 500 Days of Summer, to name a very select few. In this conversation Alan freely shares his habits and routines and the changes he's made to keep himself healthy and sane during his insanely demanding work schedules. He reveals his honest thoughts on how many hours need to be worked and whether anything can be done to change the demands placed upon editors & creative professionals in the entertainment industry. He also shares some of the perks that come with being at the top and working on big budget films while offering tips that anyone can implement for healthier snacking and higher energy levels throughout your workday. One quick caveat: This interview was originally recorded several years ago back in the “Fitness In Post” days, so you'll hear some references to that program along with some talk about working in offices, (remember that??) clearly pre-pandemic. But the topics of discussion are still relevant issues that we're all confronting today, so for those that missed this interview the first time, I hope it provides as much value now as it did when it was first released. Want to Hear More Episodes Like This One? » Click here to subscribe and never miss another episode Here's What You'll Learn: How post production affected his competitive rock climbing career. The routine Alan developed to help himself lose 23 pounds in 4 and a half months. Why counting calories is not an effective long-term weight loss strategy. How counting calories can be useful as an initial barometer for what you're eating and building awareness around that. The mindset shift that Alan used to create healthier eating habits. KEY TAKEAWAY: Food is nourishment for the mind and body. How Alan recalibrated his fullness level and began to understand how the types of calories he eats affects his hunger levels and how he feels. The difference between emotional eating and eating to fuel your body. A day in the life of Alan Bell on a tent pole film. Alan's honest assessment of the hours he works and what it takes to work at the level he works at on a consistent basis. How Alan has improved his memory over the last 4 months. The role that finances play in your ability to choose the right projects and take the downtime you need. Healthy replacements for snacking habits.

What's more magical than going to the circus? Not very much. And towards the end of 2020, I picked up two wildly different circus-themed books that I could not put down. The Night Circus by Erin Morgensten and Water For Elephants by Sarah Gruen. Both transfixed beautifully; The Night Circus read like Lewis Carroll's casual everyday description of magic (also narrated by the ever magical Jim Dale) all while Water For Elephants was heart-wrenchingly good touching the soul in a way I haven't felt from a book in so long. Yes, there are spoilers in this quick review, but get ready for a little recap on why and what I loved so much about both of these novels, and then find out which three circus-themed books are on my TBR pile.

Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars. Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones they made in between. Today we celebrate a dark knight. The Batman himself, Robert Pattinson. Over a decade ago, the young actor leapt into the hearts of many a young fan playing Edward in the Twilight series. As his star rose, Pattinson would get weirder and weirder in his role choices. The ultimate result is a filmography primarily built by B-sides. Today, dan and Conor focus on four: Remember Me, Water For Elephants, Queen of the Desert, and Damsel. We bring up that GQ profile that got some traction at the start of quarantine, The Takeout's attempt to make Pattinson's “fast food pasta,” the quite-memorable ending of Remember Me, the impressive life of Gertrude Bell (on which Queen of the Desert is based), and the tragedy that nobody has watched Damsel.

Kat had read and enjoyed the book, so was anxious to see how it had been adapted for the screen. Scott is co-captain of the Toronto chapter of Team Edward. Did we like the movie? Tune in to find out. We also ramble through some recent watches: The Killers (1946), No Strings Attached and Airplane II: the Sequel. Feed back to marriedwithclickers@gmail.com or 206-338-0793

Everyone has gone to a circus right? I remember going to one and I wanted those wannabe lightsabers. And the thing I never wanted to do was go down there and ride the elephant. So yep I bring you people the news, a Trailer Spot for 30 Minutes or Less even the trailer is kinda vague on what is going to happen. The Box Office Report and then I review Water For Elephants. To finish things off I also discuss the newest installment of Mortal Kombat: Legacy. Enjoy the show! Opening and Closing Song- The Show Goes On by Lupe Fiasco
