3 more shows from our New York trip: all off-Broadway and some old favourites included. South American rodents, killer plants and top level parenting decisions await you.

We went back to Broadway, baby! And here is the first of our round-ups of the shows we saw when we were there, covering two shows that were new to us and one previous favourite, along with understudy slip-related misunderstandings, dopplegangers and Katy finally snapping and shh-ing people (not Juno, on this occasion).

Today's musical theatre nonsense comes via a trip to York for the new production of 'The Secret Garden,' based on a book which Katy definitely read as a child but, of which, apparently has no recollection whatsoever.

In this episode, we ask the really big questions that other podcasts are too scared to discuss. Does all great art come from suffering? Should we cling onto childhood for longer? And, most crucially, do we all have an LNER puppet in the back of our head? Oh, and we also talk about 'Tina', the Tina Turner bio-musical a little bit.

If you have a dog called Otis/are a person called Otis, this one's for you.

So, the chances that anyone at all knows what we're on about in this episode are tiny but as that's probably the case half the time anyway, we'll carry on. If you don't know, Drama Club was an iconic Nickelodeon show, cut off in its prime, never to be seen again, featuring the funniest writing kids' TV has ever seen (probably). If you aren't desperately searching the dark web for it by the end of this episode, we've failed.

We're back after a little break in posting/forgetting that this episode hadn't already been posted. If you've listened before you'll be shocked to learn this episode features as much discussion of snacks, Finn Wolfhard and Punch the monkey as The Kinks. If you haven't listened before, maybe start with one of our more professional efforts...

Get ready for some incisive debate about today's shows, as well as some nonsense about pigeons and characters from Young Sheldon. Thanks for listening to our silly podcast!

Childbirth might be a nightmare but Southwark Playhouse never is; in this episode, we discuss the wonderful Ballad Lines, a mildly traumatic but beautifully sung new musical, playing at one of our favourite theatres.
