Episode 1
Thursday, 7 July, 2022
For our Season 2 Premiere, host David McKibbin sits down with Dani Cleveland and Justin Payne, a team of musical theatre writers based in Omaha Nebraska. In this episode, we discuss how Dani and Justin channeled their collective grief during the COVID-19 pandemic to write their musical Heaven Come Home, which will be presented as a staged reading this August at the University of Nebraska Omaha. We also dabble into how gentrification in Omaha influenced their musical Little Brown Boy.Produced and Hosted by David McKibbinGuests: Dani Cleveland and Justin PayneIntro Music: "Talky Beats" by Twin MusicomOutro Music: "One More Day" from Heaven Come Home, Music and Lyrics by Julie Baker
