3.5B - Divertissements: Ally O'Brien, Violet Adeney, and Jennifer James

The History of Musical Theatre Podcast

Welcome to our first Divertissements episodes, three short conversation about three wildly, different topics (and their various tangents).

In this episode I spoke to:

Ally O'Brien about body expectations in ballet, the Alexandra Waterbury case, and the value of the old guard. (Ally O'Brien (@awkwardprincessally) • Instagram photos and videos)

Violet Adeney about the lack of musical theatre roles for altos, how this ruins road trips, and why Encanto is great (Violet Adeney (@violet_aidknee) • Instagram photos and videos)

and Jennifer James about Brecht, almost Brecht, and how to make an audience think critically about a show. (Jennifer James (@missjenniferjames) • Instagram photos and videos)
