About

In this episode, we dive into the Off-Broadway production Ginger Twinsies, now running at the Orpheum Theatre in New York City. This parody of The Parent Trap combines camp, meme culture, and nostalgic humor to create a uniquely millennial theater experience. We discuss the show’s direction, performances (including standout work from the understudies), and how its humor lands with specific audiences. We also examine design choices, fast-paced costume changes, and the larger question of who this show ultimately speaks to. Tune in for our full discussion of this Off-Broadway production and its place in today's theater landscape.
