Stage Diving! A Theatre Podcast

by Stage Diving with Megann and Jake

This is Stage Diving! Megann is the hyperfixated theater expert. Jake is the theater noob, unburdened by Broadway history, and therefore feels free to say whatever occurs to him. These besties StageDive one musical at a time, digging into the story, songs, history, and, most importantly, why anyone should or shouldn’t give a shit. Stage Diving is for theater fanatics, alleged theater haters, and anyone who has sat through a three-hour musical wondering, “What the hell is going on?” Expect deep dives, utter chaos, explicit lyrics, and a whole lot of questionable takes.
