Gossip set to music? How delicious! It’s what composer-lyricist Rita Abrams does in THE ASSEMBLY BALL BUZZ, Song 4 of Pride and Prejudice - the Musical.  Its librettist, Josie Brown, discusses with Rita her goals with this song, how and why dialogue is interspersed between its stanzas, and why it encapsulates the emotions of its main characters so brilliantly. At the end of the episode, you will also hear the whole song. On our next episode of Pride and Prejudice - The Musical Podcast, Rita and I will break down Mrs. Bennet's showstopper, "A HUSBAND." It's our take on why some lucky actress of a certain age always gets a standing ovation -- and possibly an award nomination. Can’t wait to hear more of the musical's songs?
