Show Notes

This week we wrap our three-episode series on recent entries into musical theatre history with one of today's biggest Broadway hits!


THE OUTSIDERS became standard reading for young people in the United States following its novel debut in the 1960s, and now the story has become essential viewing for all musical theatre fans. Joining us to discuss how and why this show became a certified blockbuster is an expert in "musical gangs" and one of the stars of the hit revival of GYPSY, Kevin Csolak!


Broadway audiences have watched Kevin grow up onstage, and his vast experience in the worlds of WEST SIDE STORY and THE OUTSIDERS makes him the perfect guest for this episode.
