“Rebecca” the musical was supposed to be the next “Phantom of the Opera”, Broadway’s multi-billion dollar hit. Instead, “Rebecca” turned into one of the wildest, most bizarre, true-crime scandals the stage has ever seen.
When a multi-millionaire stranger suddenly dies, a fire is lit that ends up consuming everyone involved in the show. In Burnt, the story of “Rebecca” winds its way through secret stings, many courtrooms, prison and freedom — and when the smoke finally clears, we’re left to wonder: who is really to blame and how in the hell did this happen?
Reported and hosted by Blake Ross. Edited by Alan Seales. Supervising Producers Dori Berinstein and Brittany Bigelow. Special thanks to Philip Boroff.

Ep8 - Burnt Bonus: Broadway's Sunset Boulevard Soap Opera
Today we chat with Sunset Project's own Broadway Bob to touch down on the soap opera-like drama that followed the making of Sunset Boulevard. From Patti LuPone V. Glenn Close to the infamous "Andrew Lloyd Webber Memorial Pool" to the Normas that never were (i.e. Meryl Streep, Barbra Streisand, Faye Dunaway, etc.), Blake and Bob do a deep dive into the drama and gossipy fodder that was the making of this megamusical.
