Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from April 5, 2024 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

In case U missed it...

WFMU's April newsletter hyped up Ms. Bishop's side hustle:

Bronwyn Bishop of Acid Jazz Hands has the premiere of her Off-Off-Broadway musical, "Something There", on
Sat, May 4th at
Theater Under St Marks in New York, NY.

With book and lyrics by Bronwyn, music by
Simon J. Li, and direction
by Joseph Fusco, "Something There" tells the story of a lyricist and composer who beat the odds on the path to success, only to face a tragedy that threatens to destroy
their partnership.
