Time Out's new theater podcast, Sitting Ovations, launches today
"Here at TONY, our goal has always been to guide readers toward the best that the city has to offer-and, more than that, to help them appreciate what makes those things the best. In the 22 years that I've been covering theater for Time Out, that guidance has taken ever-changing forms, and as we move into the new year, I am delighted to announce a new one."
"Starting this week, we are launching a free weekly YouTube podcast series called Sitting Ovations -hosted by me, Adam Feldman!-that is devoted to taking deeper dives into the productions we've recommended, through in-person interviews with playwrights, directors and other people who have played essential roles in the creation of those shows. We'll be discussing the themes and structures of plays and musicals, looking at their histories, their development processes and the decisions that have been taken along the way."
"I want to get into the details and geek out with top theater artists about their work: to learn more about it, to learn more about them and to amplify creative voices at a time when the noisiness of the world often threatens to drown them out. My hope is that these talks will serve as introductions to the works in question and, for people who have already seen them, provide ways to understand them more deeply. Also, I think it'll be fun."
Sitting Ovations is a free weekly YouTube podcast devoted to deeper dives into recommended productions through in-person interviews with playwrights, directors, and essential creative contributors. Episodes examine themes, structures, histories, development processes, and the production decisions behind plays and musicals. The series aims to amplify creative voices, introduce works to new audiences, and provide deeper understanding for people who have already seen the shows. Early guests include prominent Broadway artists, with an inaugural conversation featuring composer Stephen Schwartz about a revival of his 1976 musical alongside discussion of other career works.
