Your Brain On Near Rhymes

Paul and David start off this week’s nerdfest on a tangent about their favorite musical of this season, Maybe Happy Ending, some more reflections on A Little Night Music (natch), and reminiscences about Theatre Projections of Olde (We’re looking at you, H2$). Then Paul and David treat us to some first-hand stories of Paul’s Jane Eyre on Broadway and David’s Motown The Musical on Broadway…and then the drill-down begins on what happens to your brain on Hamilton, and why you may not have been able to have gotten it all the first time (you won’t want to miss David spitting that Jefferson lick—or maybe you will). Finally, staying on theme, this week’s Paul & Dave Break-It-Down looks in granular detail at the great rap, yes, rap lyric of Jason Robert Brown’s “Wind In My Sails” from, you guessed it, The Connector.
