Episode description

"96,000..." Lights up on the Broadway debut of one of musical theatre's biggest names: Lin-Manuel Miranda. Yup, we're talking IN THE HEIGHTS baby!!!! After Matt *just* said he couldn't find anyone to cover this show, along comes Broadway's Philippe Arroyo (& JULIET, ALADDIN) swopping in and making an iconic episode with Matt. The two discuss Lin's score that's almost entirely "no skips," questions about character's backstories and what role from the movie can be added to the show so Matt can have a silent walk on role. The two also discuss the ever evolving discussion of diversity in theatre, honesty in critical analysis, and Barbie. CARNAVAL!!
