64. “This Story Deserves the Best of Us” (with Cynthia Erivo)
Our hearts are leaping in the giddiest of whirls, because today on the pod we’re talking to the one and only Cynthia Erivo. Together, we talk through her Wicked origins at drama school, the magic that happened when she sang with Ariana Grande for the first time and why there was no such thing as a small day on set while making the Wicked movies. Plus, her Elphaba audition story is so incredible that you’ll have to hear it to believe it.

60. The Authenticity of Elphaba (with Laurel Harris)
This week, the boys are chatting with an Elpha-vita for the AGES: Laurel Harris, who was kind enough to call up the boys between shows at the Gersh'! Together, they talk about Laurel's first time seeing the show from the balcony, bringing more of herself to the role each time she returns, and what keeps people coming back to Wicked. PLUS, SJB singing Cole Porter, Jonathan Bailey in blue pants and the cute little forehead waves that will surely come back to break our hearts in Part Two.
