A lot of Musical Theatre shows have very similar playlists. Showtune aims to give a little bit more, for those who really love the genre, and want something slightly different in their mix

I listed my show as available for syndication if there are any stations that would like a relatively inexpensive hour of specialist content. My current station is a small platform which is an advantage, because it is likely to be unknown and fresh

This week's show features Pulitzer Prize winners and a drugged cat (wouldn't get away with that these days)
Showtune is about the music and the musicals, not a personality driven piece. Wonderful songs, accompanied by the best anecdotes that I can find

It is not as easy as you think it would be finding 15ish shows to play in an hour show. I need variety, balance, something interesting to say, some news to impart, s'thing exciting to open with, s'thing dramatic to close, s'thing familiar, s'thing rare & they must work together

I had a wonderful weekend staying with a friend, the highlight of which had to be an evening @oldvictheatre.bsky.social I have truly fallen in love with their backstage bar and script library (I need something like this nearer to me) the production of A Christmas Carol was magnificent ❤️

With over 200 shows in my catalogue and more each week, it seems a shame not to try and make a little bit of a living from it.
Any small stations out there that want a bit of content to fill a gap, I have a relatively inexpensive specialist weekly show ready for you.

I normally have the weekend off from show work to reset my brain, but I have a busy week ahead, so time to get on with next Friday's.
In the meantime, here's the link to last Friday's

This week's show is now uploaded. I put it on 4 hours ago and have only just got the time to publicise it. Some people have already listened! It feels lovely that there are people who actually look out for it coming online

When I was thinking about last week's 200th show I did a lot of research on various subjects to try and come up with a good idea for a theme. They were ultimately abandoned, but why waste a good bit of research?
I've put some of it to good use this week

Show 201 feels a bit anticlimactic after 200. It's on today at 12, and I am using some of the research that I did for 200 and then didn't use. Recycling at its best!

Not quite sure how I have got to 200 shows, but I have!
Quite a lot of work has gone into that😅
