This week the Crew is joined by a very special guest host as they come together to talk about E-52’s latest project: She Kills Monsters! The Crew themselves have a variety of roles in the show and we are joined by someone who’s marginally involved so they can really get the full scope of the show. They talk about everything from rehearsal memories, to getting the word about the show out there, to everything in between!

And what happens when a debate is confined to just 90 seconds? All this and more in this episode!
You can also play along with us. The blank bracket is attached below. Feel free to fill it out and email it to us! Let’s see which musical YOU pick!

Here we are again at the beginning of a semester, but this week, the Crew brings you an episode like never before. Not only do they have two guest hosts, but these guest hosts have almost no experience in the world of theatre… unless it’s as a theatre PARENT. Join the Crew as they talk to their moms and get some input from their sister as they discover what it’s like to be in the audience throughout all of their theatre endeavors.
Also in this episode: Who’s Blam? Who surprised their mother in a wedding dress? Who has done shows with their siblings? And stick around until the end to get some insight into some of the host’s childhood!
Share this episode with your family and see what THEY have to say about being related to a theatre kid!

It’s that time of the semester again. The time when we can get together and reflect on all of the crazy and wonderful things that E-52 has been able to do this semester. Whether it be running around with our heads cut off or performing a serious monologue in a funny accent, the members of E-52 have accomplished a lot this Fall. So to celebrate that, the Crew takes a minute (or 30) to reminisce on their experience and we hope you will too.
