The Nemacolin Castle is also known as the Bowman's Castle and is found in Brownsville, Pennsylvania. While the mansion itself dates back to the Victorian era, there are things on the property that go back even further than that with remnants from the former Fort Burd here and even before that from indigenous people. The Bowman family built the castle and three generations lived here before it became the museum it is today. There are claims that nearly a dozen ghosts haunt the property. Join us for the history and hauntings of Nemacolin Castle. The Moment in Oddity features Robert Liston, Fastest Knife in the West End.

In 2017, Hugh Jackman led an ensemble cast in a musical based on the life of circus ringmaster P.T. Barnum, which proved to be a smash hit at the box office. Co-starring Zac Effron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, Paul Sparks, and including Zendaya, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Keala Settle, Sam Humphrey, Eric Anderson, and Natasha Liu Bordizzo as members of Barnum's freakshow, with songs by Benji Pasek and Justin Paul, this film directed by Michael Gracey earned multiple awards and nominations, including a Grammy for its soundtrack. However, critics were mixed, praising its music and production, but roasting the film's historical revisionism and melodramatic approach. With a stage musical coming to the West End later this year, will our hosts decide that the greatest show on Earth is The Greatest Showman? Or would we rather run away to join the circus than have to watch it again?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

"We watch a Holocaust play and we know that all of these people are gonna die. We watch an AIDS play and we know how badly it's gonna turn out." So what does it mean for a musical to be a period piece marked by tragedy? In this Season 9 premiere of Scene to Song, host Shoshana Greenberg sits down with dramaturg Deborah Blumenthal to explore how musicals like Rent and Falsettos have transformed from contemporary stories into historical texts. They examine these iconic Broadway shows through the lens of the AIDS crisis, discussing how audiences experience them differently now than when they first premiered. The conversation also features an analysis of "New York" from the 2024 West End musical Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York). In this episode, you'll hear about: How Rent and Falsettos function as AIDS-era period pieces The evolving audience relationship with tragic historical musicals Deborah's dramaturgical approach to reviving classic shows Her upcoming production of Heartbreak Hotel What makes a musical become a "period piece" You can write to scenetosong@gmail.com with a comment or question about an episode or about musical theater, or if you'd like to be a podcast guest. Follow on Instagram at @‌ScenetoSong and on Facebook at “Scene to Song with Shoshana Greenberg Podcast.” And be sure to sign up for the new monthly e-newsletter at scenetosong.substack.com.

The profound effect that Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Marie Knight had on contemporary music is rarely spelled out in full. There's a reason why Tharpe is heralded as the "godmother of rock ‘n' roll." Between them, they helped reshape genres and alter tastes, all in a racist, misogynistic world that rarely gave them space to show off their groundbreaking talents.That is the story now coming to @sohoplace with Marie and Rosetta, George Brant's two-hander that brings a rocking, untapped history into the present day. Stars Beverley Knight and Ntombizodwa Ndlovu sit down to chat about their time with the production, aided by director Monique Touko and movement director Kloé Dean. Hosted on Acast.

We trace the unlikely arc that carried poolside pandemic brainstorms into London Calling, a high-velocity variety show that's genuinely all-ages without sanding off its edge.As the Pandemic hit Las Vegas Paul Dabek and Captain Frodo dreamt by the pool of acts, podcast, and shows. As it turned out these dreams all came to fruition.We get specific about how the show grew: a clear adult-facing voice, visuals that enchant kids on contact, and design that marries LED world-building with just a few tactile anchors—a lamppost here, an oak bar to sell entire neighborhoods of London. We talk quiet-loud pacing, compress-then-expand staging, and the power of a loose narrative frame (train rides, stations, quick jumps) that keeps momentum without burying acts in exposition. Think Covent Garden street magic flowing into Wimbledon athleticism, all while the ensemble's micro-moments—prop handoffs, shared looks, quick riffs—telegraph trust.Paul Dabeck opens the hood on the growth curve: from small houses and street pitches to winning pick of the fringe and selling five-figure ticket totals. He shares the marketing pivots that worked, why “family-friendly” is a tone not a label, and how sweat equity turned Facebook Marketplace parts into automated scenic that looks West End-ready. We also dive into his Vegas warehouse: a black box, workshop, and filming space evolving into Make It Rain, a community hub for artists to prototype, connect, and protect their mental health. It's church-without-religion, where the faith is craft and the sermon is showing up.If you care about showmaking—stagecraft, culture, and the long game of compounding relationships—this one's a blueprint. We leave you with blunt takeaways: risk with purpose, design worlds with one tactile anchor, market like a story, film your late refinements, build a culture of generosity, and ship version one before you feel ready. Subscribe, share with a friend who builds in public, and drop us a note about the project you're making right now.

The number of abortions recorded in England and Wales has reached a record high, according to the latest government figures from the Department of Health. There were 277,970 abortions in 2023, the highest number since the Abortion Act was introduced in 1967 - which is 11 per cent higher than the previous year in 2022. Rachael Clarke is Head of Advocacy for the British Pregnancy Advisory Service - known as B-PAS, and tells Anita Rani about the findings. In 2025 alone she walked at Paris Fashion Week, spoke at the United Nations about face equality and won 'Fashion and beauty influencer of the year' at the the UK and Ireland TikTok awards, all while managing a chronic illness. Nikki Lilly is a Bafta and Emmy award-winner, an influencer and a campaigner and she joins Anita in the studio. January is one of the toughest times for managing finances - and this year the pressure is hitting harder than ever. In just the first week of 2026, more than 13,000 people turned to Citizens Advice for help with debt. Last January, over 50,000 people sought support, and they expect this year to be even worse. New polling commissioned by the charity over the last six months reveals one in three people in problem debt have gone without essentials like food and women are feeling the squeeze more than men, with nearly 40% of those seeking advice being impacted compared to 31% of men. To discuss, Anita is joined by principle policy manager at Citizens Advice, Emer Sheehy, and personal finance and consumer expert Sue Hayward.Grief over a pet's death can be as strong as that for a family member or close friend, new research shows. Anita talks to Philip Hyland who led the research on prolonged grief disorder. Actor Hayley Squires is currently on our screens in the long-awaited second series of BBC spy thriller The Night Manager. Her character Sally Price-Jones is second in command to Tom Hiddleston's Jonathan Pine, as they navigate a dangerous world of international espionage, deception and moral ambiguity. Since her breakthrough in Ken Loach's award-winning film I, Daniel Blake, Hayley's won critical acclaim for a host of TV, film and theatre roles. She's currently also appearing in the hit production of All My Sons in London's West End. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Corinna Jones

It may not be Halloween, but there definitely seems to be a spooky season on UK stages – with Paranormal Activity making things go bump in the night, A Ghost in Your Ear sending chills down the spine and 2:22 A Ghost Story back on the open road (all before Dracula has begun performances in the West End!). With that in mind, Sarah and Alex put on their bravest faces and discuss why fear works so well on stage. Plus, in a complete tangent, why they're both thrilled to bits about Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey teaming up with Marianne Elliott and Tom Scutt for Sunday in the Park with George.

Judson prepares to celebrate his birthday. Brian attends his daughter's first fashion show as a designer. Judson clarifies what he means when he uses the term “Duck Toast” to describe a man's physique. Brian provides an update on the effect Lexapro is having on his sexual performance. The Hookup of the Week follows the international adventures of a listener who has opened his marriage after more than 20 years. Brian and Judson are then joined by Tony, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and NY Drama Critics Circle awards-winning comedy writer for stage and screen, Robert Horn. Robert shares incredible stories from throughout his life, ranging from the time he set his home on fire as a child to the underground way in which he maintained contact with his sister after they were sent to separate orphanages, to his sexual awakening while at the orphanage, to the impact the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization made on his life. He tells them about his move to Manhattan where he made money any way he could–legal or not, his move to Los Angeles where his TV writing career took off, and his most recent chapter writing hit after hit on Broadway and the West End. Robert talks about his marriage to his true southern gentleman husband John, his thoughts on the evolution of queer culture, and the challenges of aging as a gay man. To close, Robert helps Brian and Judson respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who continues to fall for straight men and wants help putting a stop to the pattern.

"This Should Not Have Happened!!"Christopher Smitherman discusses the tragic shooting of an 11-year-old girl playing in the West End, reflecting on the implications for community safety and the political accountability of local leaders. He expresses frustration over the lack of action from the city government regarding crime prevention measures, particularly in the West End community. takeaways The tragic shooting of an 11-year-old girl raises serious concerns about community safety. There is a strong emotional connection between fathers and daughters, especially in the context of violence. Political leaders have a responsibility to ensure safety measures are in place in communities. The West End community has been advocating for safety measures that have not been implemented. The lack of response from local government after repeated incidents of violence is alarming. Community engagement and accountability are crucial in addressing crime. The political landscape can often overshadow the immediate needs of the community. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She was born into show business royalty, made her film debut at just 11 weeks old, and grew up surrounded by legends like Noel Coward, Vivien Leigh, Laurence Olivier, and more. On this episode of Still Here Hollywood, Steve Kmetko sits down with the luminous Juliet Mills, the beloved star of Nanny and the Professor, to trace a life and career that spans West End theater, Broadway, classic television, and unforgettable Hollywood collaborators. Juliet shares how her family and upbringing shaped her worldview, why gratitude became one of her guiding principles, and what it was really like stepping into the spotlight as “Nanny” during a time when television was far more “tea and nightgowns” than romance and realism. She also looks back on the global success of the show, her bond with co-star Richard Long, and why she believes the series might have lasted longer if the on-screen relationship had been allowed to evolve. Plus, Juliet tells behind-the-scenes stories from her career highlights, including working with Billy Wilder and Jack Lemmon on Avanti! (yes, the role that required her to gain 35 pounds, a true acting challenge if spaghetti is involved). She also opens up about love, marriage, and fate, as her husband Maxwell Caulfield joins the conversation for a charming, honest look at how their relationship began during The Elephant Man, with a cameo appearance from Natalie Wood in the origin story. If you grew up with Nanny and the Professor, love classic Hollywood, or just want to hear a joyful, thoughtful conversation with an icon who's still full of wonder, this one's for you.

This week, Jason is joined by one of the biggest breakout stars in Netflix's reality TV world, Chloe Veitch! Chloe first rose to fame on Too Hot To Handle, quickly becoming a fan favorite with her humor, honesty, and a big personality. She went on to compete on The Circle and later on Perfect Match, and most recently hosting Sneaky Links After Dark, building a reputation as one of the most recognizable faces on Netflix reality universe. Beyond television, Chloe has leveraged her fame into a career as a model, influencer, and content creator, connecting with millions of fans across social media. Chloe opens up about her early dream of pursuing a career in London's West End, how her relationship with money has evolved, and why she used opportunities as a form of escapism growing up. She shares how getting signed to a boutique London agency at 18 — and taking an unpaid modeling job — unexpectedly led to Too Hot to Handle, plus the reality show she almost joined and why she played The Circle more strategically. Chloe breaks down how TV exposure turns into brand deals, the hard lessons she's learned about valuing income, why being single performs better on reality TV, and the one show she would never do again. She also dives into hosting — landing her first job without an audition but needing to sell the concept to Netflix — getting off ADHD medication, controlling the energy in the room, knowing when to walk away from relationships, launching her Big Sister radio segment with the Unwell Network, the power of loyal followers, standing firm on non-negotiables, and the advice she'd give her younger self. Chloe reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!

Maria Taglioni changed ballet forever. In the early nineteenth century she reinvented the art form, dancing en pointe not as a trick but as poetry, creating the illusion of weightlessness and giving birth to Romantic ballet. This lively, story-rich piece traces her extraordinary rise, her London triumphs at Her Majesty's Theatre, and her surprisingly proper London life in Connaught Square, just off Marble Arch. From Parisian hysteria to West End adoration, this is the story of the woman who taught audiences across Europe how to believe in flight.

Comedian, actor and improviser Rachel Parris discusses why people can be so wrong about Jane Austen, the knotty complexities of female friendship and her love for crime fiction.  Rachel is officially a member of the British comedy elite – she has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You, and Mock the Week, and was BAFTA-nominated for her satirical sketches on BBC's The Mash Report, which have garnered over 100 million views online. She's a regular on BBC Radio 4 where she can be heard on Just A Minute, I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue and, formerly, The Now Show.

Episode 105: The Weir by Conor McPherson Host: Douglas Schatz Guest: Conor McPherson Welcome to The Play Podcast where we explore the greatest new and classic plays. Each episode we choose a single play to talk about in depth with our expert guest. We'll discuss the play's origins, its themes, characters, structure and impact. For us the play is the thing. The curtain rises on a small rural pub in northwest Ireland. A few of the regulars have dropped in for company and bit of the craic. This is the simple premise of Conor McPherson's breakthrough, internationally successful play, The Weir. The play is a quiet, yet mesmerising piece of drama that consists of nothing more than a handful of people coming together and telling a few stories. Stories which reveal not only personal anxieties, regret and grief on the part of its characters, but which, in the telling, draw us into a collective experience of the mystery of being alive. The Weir premiered in a tiny space at the Royal Court Upstairs in July 1997. It has since been performed all over the world, and as we recorded this episode a new production was playing in London's West End, directed by the author himself and starring Brendan Gleeson as Jack. I'm delighted to be able to talk with Conor himself about his magical play.

The Hideaway Club, now part of London's Chinatown, opened on 16th December, 1964. Ronnie and Reggie Kray didn't turn up for the big night, even though they had booked a table. It was an opening gambit in a war of intimidation against the manager of the club, Huw Cargill McCowan - to whom the gangsters had proposed a protection racket; threatening him when he turned down their offer. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how the Krays' (first) trial fell apart; consider how the brothers used the glamour of their West End nightclub to sanitise their personal brand; and explain how journalist John Pearson shaped the public understanding of these notorious bad boys while they were behind bars…  Further Reading: • ‘The Kray Twins - Just Pictures' (Rich2015, YouTube, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhR7dyGmipM • ‘An Evening at El Morocco with the Kray Twins and Barbara Windsor' (Flashbak, 2016): https://flashbak.com/evening-el-morocco-kray-twins-barbara-windsor-59411/ • ‘The hidden history of London's Chinatown' (Telegraph, 2018): https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/united-kingdom/england/london/articles/london-chinatown-history/ This episode first aired in 2021 Love the show?
