MUSICAL #4 | Lady Jane's Radio Takeover Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

This month on One Million Musicals: An oldie, but a goodie. Well, it's not quite an oldie yet, but we hope it is at least good...ie. 1MM proudly presents: Lady Jane's Radio Takeover!
The year is 1958, and WXYZ is the hottest teen hits station in New York City. Jane, who dreams of making a career as a singer, works as a coffee girl for Straight-Laced Steve, the station's number one DJ. Steve is obsessed with playing the same safe, tired hits night after night. After years of trying and failing to establish herself in the music business, Jane decides to take matters into her own hands. She locks herself in the booth and broadcasts her own songs to the world, flipping the station upside-down.

Show notes

Happy Holidays from all of us here at One Million Musicals! Welcome to musical number three out of One Million! Otherwise known as our obligatory MASSIVE Christmas Special!!
Have you ever wondered why some kids get whatever they want from Santa, while others are left disappointed? Well, The South Pole Santa Claus has the answer! It’s money.
Enter Patience Li, a precocious and very very poor little girl who has gone too many Christmases without getting the gifts she desires. This year she’s fed up, and she’ll go to the ends of the earth to make sure Santa gives her the gift of her dreams. After a trip to the North Pole leaves her empty-handed, she travels all the way down to the South Pole to confront the man responsible for her years of underwhelming gifts: Reggie Claus, aka The South Pole Santa Claus. But the man she finds is overworked, understaffed, and all out of Christmas spirit.
Will Patience get the gift of her dreams? Will Reggie find his Christmas spirit? Will Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer also show up? You’ll have to listen to this extra magical and extra musical holiday epic to find out!
