June 1, 2026·1h 11m
Episode Description from the Publisher

Tony Award-winning Director Sam Pinkleton brings his extraordinary vision to the Broadway revival of Richard O'Brien's The Rocky Horror Show at Studio 54. He is also known for his work on Cole Escola's Oh, Mary! on Broadway and in London's West End and Josh Sharp's Ta-Da!, and many more. As a choreographer, his work includes Stephen Sondheim's final musical Here We Are, Jeanine Tesori and David Henry Hwang's Soft Power and seven Broadway shows, including Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812. In this episode, Sam discusses why being a people pleaser fits into his work as a director and choreographer, how a shared love of 1970s regional theater with Cole Escola led to Oh, Mary!, and embracing the energy of The Rocky Horror Show fandom.
