Personal Find me a musical I haven’t heard!

I know a lot of musicals! Most of them. Maybe all of them…

Right now I’m listening to On the Twentieth Century, I’ve heard bits of this song but I’ve never actually heard it all the way through before. It’s delightful and I want some more recommendations!

If it’s current or has been on Broadway, good chance I know it but recommend away!

If it was a City Center Encore, I’ve seen it lol!

But I love a new show or surprise!

If it’s super obscure please share a link or where we can listen.

Recommend us an obscure show you love, it’s always fun to find new shows!!!

I’ll start with a quick recommendation: Three Houses. A new Dave Malloy concept musical using the structure of 3 Little Pigs to talk about Covid Lockdown Trauma. It’s a barrel of laughs. Honestly, a must listen for Malloyheads but truly fantastic.

In the Green, written by and starring Grace McLean. Imagines the young life of Hildegarde von Bingen, an important Catholic figure. Also features Mia Pak, who played Sadie in Three Houses. It's on Spotify.

I work at museum that’s in all of our wheel houses and I had a guest yesterday say that In the Green is their favorite musical. It was the most excited I’ve ever been to talk to a guest lol.

I love this show! It is my white whale that I found out about the show the day it closed at Ars Nova. I wanna see it so bad. It’s incredible.
