What a humongous show this week! First, JD Hansel stays true to his word and re-records the new MuppetCast intro (with some coaching from yours truly). Next, Joanna May Hunkins from the Cleveland Stage Alliance joins me to talk about the upcoming show The Electric Mayhem: A Musical Tribute to Jim Henson. Get your tickets here.
Jarrod Fairclough and JD Hansel join me to talk about all the recent Sesame and Disney Muppet news, and it became an amazing, far-reaching, deep discusison of several Muppet topics. Our talk spanned from our favorite Maria moments from Sesame Street, to Disney’s seemingly changed attitude toward the Muppet performers, to the painful psyche necessary for Miss Piggy to really “work” as a character.
