News: Remastered "Loveville High" and Songs from the Podcast Re-Released, Streaming Free



Loveville High: A Prom in Nine Musical Podcasts, in association with the Broadway Podcast Network, has announced that a re-release of the remastered audio musical plus songs from the podcast will be available free on streaming services. With book and lyrics by David Zellnik (Drama Desk-nominated Yank!) and music by Eric Svejcar (Disney’s Peter Pan Jr. with Zellnik), Loveville High takes place on prom night in the fictional town of Loveville, Ohio. Each ten-minute episode tells a love story – new love, old love, romantic love, friend love, gay and straight, cis and genderqueer; each is a self-contained musical while also connecting with the other episodes to form a glimpse into the biggest night in the lives of one high school class. The first five remastered episodes and a special bonus episode were released together, with the final four remastered episodes released weekly on subsequent Wednesdays. Episodes are available exclusively from the Broadway Podcast Network on the BPN APP, and wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts. Find the podcast now at BPN.FM/lovevillehigh and the album at https://ditto.fm/loveville-high.

Photo by Natasha Rotondaro In 1948, Tennessee Williams published American Blues , a collection of five one-act plays, and a remarkable new production of this collection by Brooklyn's Irondale shows that these works have lost none of their power to both entertain and challenge audiences in the intervening three-quarters of a century.
