Sims and Scully is focused on off and off-Broadway work that, in some cases, might already be gone. The show might be closed, but it’s not forgotten—Joey and Connor are gonna talk about it.

Theater We Saw: Cumulo, End of Days, Kenrex

This week, Sims & Scully are joined by dramaturg, cultural commentator, and TikToker Grace Walker (NotKristenBell) for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with the ongoing discourse around theater influencers, free tickets, and who's actually telling the truth online—and whether any of that is the scummiest thing Broadway producers are doing anyway. Connor battles the rain to catch Cumulo, Emily Batsford's wordless puppet piece at Mitu 580 in Gowanus, in which a figure named Plum free-falls through a sky full of sentient clouds and monsters. All three also caught End of Days by Nile Harris and Dyer Rhoades, a durational performance piece at the Whitney Biennial where a man is drilled out of a crate and delivers a monologue in Russian about a Birkin bag possibly made of human skin. Finally, the group takes on Kenrex at the Lucille Lortel—an Olivier-winning true crime solo piece. Fair warning: the sound quality this episode is a little rough. We won't be accepting any Oliviers for sound design anytime soon—but we promise we're getting better. Thanks for growing with us!

Theater We Saw: No Singing in The Navy & The Adding Machine

Scully and Sims are joined by theater critic and TikTok commentator Joe Weinberg (aka @overthinkingtheater) to break down a pair of very different, very unsettling shows: No Singing in the Navy at Playwrights Horizons and The Adding Machine at The New Group. Scully and Sims are joined by theater critic and TikTok commentator Joe Weinberg (aka @overthinkingtheater) to break down a pair of very different, very unsettling shows: No Singing in the Navy at Playwrights Horizons and The Adding Machine at The New Group. They get into what worked, what didn’t, and why both shows left them feeling a little off. Along the way: Olivier Awards discourse, Octet casting reactions, and the question—what play should get the all-puppet treatment?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
