Grow out your hair, open those collared shirts, and burn them bras, ladies: we’re going back to the 1970s with Cameron Crowe’s “Almost Famous!” Adapted from the 2000 movie of the same name, this adaptation features book and lyrics by Crowe with music by Tom Kitt.
Paul and Jill squeeze into their tour van to ponder: what makes a good movie adaptation? How many headlights are on the highway? And where’s Penny Lane’s all-female folk band called The Band Aids?

Welcome to the show (ba ba-da da)! We’re travelling backwards in time with 1981’s Merrily We Roll Along, with music by up-and-coming Broadway nobody Stephen Sondheim.
Paul and Jill provide important answers, followed by questions such as: where does one get a sweatshirt showing their narrative significance? Why does Hal Prince loves bleachers so much? And why the heck hasn’t Richard Linklater called?
