I love the Evening Standard Theater podcast but I get the sense it’s no longer in production. Is that right? Is there another good London Theater podcast with news, reviews and interviews?

There’s the new WhatsOnStage Podcast, formerly As the Actress Said to the Critic, which was hosted by Nancy Carroll and Sarah Crompton. Sarah continues with the WOS podcast but with Alex Wood.
The Delfont Mackintosh Theatres launched their podcast a couple of months ago.

I loved the Standard Theatre podcast. They were all older critics, which may not be what younger theatre enthusiasts are looking for, but for me it was the perfect balance of interviews and informed criticism spiced up with lively debate. The podcast is on a permanent real I think. I haven’t found a replacement either. if your tastes run more to personal interviews, then the Stagedoor Johnnie podcast has some interesting guests.

I was looking for recommendations for podcasts that discuss musicals (or other theatre) in UK. My current favourite is West End Frame Show which is a mix of interview, theatre news and reviews. What does everyone else like?

Up Close with Carlos Tseng has had a pretty good run of guests lately and seems to provide a nice balance between musicals and straight play actors. The Jack Wolfe and Sally Ann Triplett interviews were terrific I thought and searching back, the ones with John Heffernan and Fisayo Akinade are also really enjoyable. Great questions, lovely atmosphere and wonderful conversation

I noticed on Nancy Durrant’s Instagram that the defunct Standard theatre podcast is back in independent form as The London Theatre Podcast. I’ve only listened to the first episode so far, but the presenters and format seem the same. I’m not a fan of Nick Curtis as a critic, but I’ve missed the Standard podcast, so it’s nice to find something new (and almost identical) to replace it.
Edit: I forgot to add that there’s also an interview with Rufus Norris in ep. 1, about his final season choices for the NT.
