Looking for a good theatre podcast? I love Ilana Levine's "Little Known Facts" where she humorously interviews theatre personalities weekly, and "3 On the Aisle", a fascinating, bi-monthly conversation with theatre critics Peter Marks of the Washington Post, Terry Teachout of the Wall Street Journal, and Elisabeth Vincentelli of the New York Times, the New Yorker, and Newsday
Musical theatre legend Harvey Schmidt, composer of "The Fantasticks", is dead at age 88
