🎙Ep #044 – BREAKING NEWS: Lin-Manuel Miranda is Directing his 2nd film!
The Chat Del Barrio ladies are back with breaking news, and they are SCREAMING, literally. Lin-Manuel Miranda is directing a film adaptation of the musical, Octet!
Sarah and Steffs dive into everything there is to know about Dave Malloy's beloved acapella chamber choir musical, from its 2019 origins to why this passion project feels so perfectly on-brand for Director Lin. Tackling the delightful irony of a self-professed internet addict directing a musical about digital-age alienation, nihilism and existential drama 😅. Plus, the scoop about what’s in the works for Warriors and exciting times ahead, it's starting to feel a lot like 2021 all over again, and we are so here for it. 🎬
