Broadway Babies: A Musical Theatre Podcast

Arts


There's always time for a song for the Broadway Babies! This week, we're going to keep looking at the wild AF hellscape corner of the internet with another fever-dream musical, the British children's show-surreal-horror-satire-web series "Don't Hug Me I'm Scared." So today, let's go on a journey and talk about about the ups and downs of learning to get creative while also learning to live in a society.   Where to watch: YouTube   Music and lyrics by Joseph Pelling   Show Notes A couple theories about children and the media (like bringing in the BBC licensing and ITV being created) Another video theory about the dreaming Red Guy refusing to grow up even though he’s tired of being a kid (and the other two are his imaginary puppet friends) Roy having some choice words for his son. An update on the DHMIS TV show — is it still happening?   Podcast cover art: David Taylor Twitter: @bwaybabies Facebook: Facebook.com/broadwaybabiespodcast
