Iron John (EP 105)
<p>In this episode of Muse, the creators of Iron John stop by the studio to tell us a good, old-fashioned, ghost story with a musical theatre twist. Set in the fictional Southern town of Good, Alabama, this dark, lyrical new musical tells the story of a love triangle that ended in an act of racist violence and seems to repeat itself once every generation—including this one. Writers <strong>Jacinth Greywoode</strong> and <strong>Rebecca Hart</strong> perform highlights from Iron John themselves, giving us a peek at their wild, woodsy musical that blends folklore, Americana and mystery to create something entirely original…and entirely haunted.</p>

Teeth (EP 104)
<p>If you’ve seen the cult indie horror film that Teeth is based on, you probably have some questions about what exactly inspired someone to make a musical about “Vagina Dentata.” Luckily, we’ve invited the show’s creators, Michael R. Jackson (2020 Pulitzer Prize winner for his musical, A Strange Loop) and Anna K. Jacobs, to walk us through it. The story of Teeth follows Dawn O’Keefe, an evangelical teenager who has a powerful secret…namely, that she has teeth in her vagina. With a pop-rock inflected score, impactful political messages about purity culture and violence against women, and a good dose of campy humor, Teeth is sure to be as much of a cult classic as the film it’s based on.</p>

XY (EP 103)
<p>The intersex community remains largely undiscussed in our culture, let alone in musical theatre. XY is ready to change that. Centering the narrative on one intersex person, XY brings its audience along on a journey of self-acceptance, living with the past, and the painful but liberating process of becoming and embracing who we really are. In this episode, XY’s creators (writer <strong>Oliver Houser</strong> and director/collaborator <strong>Hunter Bird</strong>) take us through the story of their protagonist Chris, discussing the way XY blurs the lines between the past and present, touching on the personal journey that led to the show’s creation.</p>
