Random Plays Podcasts

Going strong since September 2016! Each episode is a conversation with the cast, crew, and creative team behind the amazing productions coming out of Central Iowa. We talk about what goes on backstage and behind the scenes: the parts the audience doesn’t get to see. Due to space limitations, we have had to remove our oldest episodes. If you want to hear an episode no longer on the site, most are on YouTube. You can also contact us thru our facebook page to request an mp3 file of any episode. Thanks!
