‘The Outsiders’ Tour Story & Characters | The BSB Podcast

There’s nothing quite like staying gold when The Outsiders rolled into the Fisher Theatre this past season of ATG Detroit’s Broadway series! This show is definitely a highlight of the previous season, as the story is one of the most poignant and beautiful ones currently touring North America!

In this episode of the BSB Podcast, hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko are joined by fellow theater lover and honoree Box Seat Babe, Emily Brown! While the two hosts might have seen The Outsiders previously, Brown entered the show with a basic knowledge of what to expect from the Tony Award-winning musical! Having read the book in high school, how did the story transfer to the stage? Comparatively, were there any changes our hosts noticed compared to when they saw it on Broadway? Which characters and performances really spoke to our hosts and their guest? And what about the plot really stood out to them, and why was it SodaPop? You’ll have to give this exciting episode a listen to find out those answers and more!
