Each week, host Richard Carroll discusses a different musical with smart and hilarious guests, including Joel Creasey, Lucy Durack, Leigh Sales, David Campbell, Virginia Gay and Julia Zemiro. Each musical gets an in-depth going-over – from deconstructing the minutiae of the plot, to fan-girling over the songs, reminiscing about the impact of the musical on our lives, and interrogating the unanswered questions we’ve always wanted resolved.

episode 13: Jesus Christ Superstar (with Toby Francis)
Richard Carroll is joined by Toby Francis (star of Kinky Boots Australia and award-winning cabaret writer/performer) to discuss Jesus Christ Superstar, the rock musical based on an obscure ancient middle eastern story.
They get into the evolution of the idea from concept album to world-conquering smash hit show, the crazy 70s-ness of the movie, the quirks of Toby's religious upbringing, and why we haven't yet had a black female Jesus.
