About this listen

The two most common questions anyone at Playbill gets from friends or family are: "What's on Broadway? And what should I see?" The Playbill Podcast is here to help.


Each episode highlights a currently running Broadway show and features an interview with members of the cast and/or creative team. Hosted by Alex Birsh (Playbill's VP & COO), the podcast is co-hosted by an interchanging "theatre friend," someone at or connected to Playbill who is well-versed in Broadway within their own social circles, and often answers the question, "What Broadway show would I like?"


Whether you’re a Broadway veteran or just starting to explore, the Playbill Podcast brings you the magic of Broadway, one show at a time.

  • Time To Kill: Making The Lost Boys Musical -- Part 2, The Direction

    Time To Kill: Making The Lost Boys Musical -- Part 2, The Direction
    Feb 24 2026

    The Lost Boys musical is on its way to Broadway, and it is one of the season’s most highly anticipated new shows. Previews start March 27th at the Palace Theatre, with tickets available now at lostboysmusical.com.


    The production is in the middle of the final sprint to the finish that all new shows need to take on to open on Broadway successfully, and while there is rarely time to reflect in those moments, the producing and creative teams for the show are peeling back the curtain with a three-part podcast series called "Time To Kill: Making The Lost Boys Musical." And lucky for you all, we’re releasing those episodes here on the Playbill Podcast.


    The hosts of the series are producers James Carpinello, Marcus Chait, and Patrick Wilson, and each episode will feature a different member or members of the creative process, such as the music, the direction, and the cast.


    The first episode of the series focused on the music with special guests The Rescues. In this second installment, the hosts bring on the two-time Tony Award-winning director of the musical, Michael Arden.
