S11 Ep25: The Warriors Come Out to Play… on Broadway?

Can you dig it?The Warriors are coming out to play again—but this time, they’re heading to Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis are transforming the cult 1979 Walter Hill movie into a full stage musical based on their acclaimed concept album. Their version reimagines the Warriors as an all-female gang and combines hip-hop, rock, salsa and R&B.Can the gritty story of a Coney Island gang fighting its way home survive the jump to Broadway, or does turning The Warriors into a Lin-Manuel Miranda musical completely miss what made the original movie work?We also get into Michael Caine licensing an AI-generated version of his voice to narrate The Odyssey, Instagram’s attempt to become television, Hollywood’s improving box-office numbers and the deeply uncomfortable Season 3 premiere of House of the Dragon.Plus, Trailer Trash features Ricky Gervais’ Alley Cats, King of the Hill Season 15 and Apple TV’s The Dink. We also run through this week’s Views or Snooze releases, Staff Picks and whatever else falls out of the Labyrinth.Let us know in the comments: Does The Warriors work as a Broadway musical, or should they have left this cult classic alone?Please like, subscribe and share the show.Keep It Canon.Watch the YouTube Show: https://youtu.be/F5ZmPB7bcRsSupport Radio Labyrinth on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/timandrews▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀Hosts: Tim Andrews, Jeff Leiboff, Dustin Lollar and Lizzie Bruce JonesAudio Podcast & YouTube Video Edited by Dustin Lollar ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀✨ Support Our Social Media & Merch:  https://linktr.ee/RadioLabyrinth👉 Patreon.com/timandrews Join our $5 tier for bonus episodes, behind-the-scenes extras, and exclusive merch.
