  • Lolita, My Love (1971)
    2025/04/01
    Trigger Warning: This episode deals with pedophilia If there was source material that no one ever thought could be a musical, you would go to one man to write it. Not Lin Manuel Miranda. Not Stephen Sondheim. Not even Oscar Hammerstein. You would go to lyricist Alan Jay Lerner who, along with Frederick Loewe, created Brigadoon, Camelot, and the juggernaut known as My Fair Lady. But when Loewe chooses to retire, and Broadway moves to pop, Alan Jay Lerner has two options. He can either retire himself OR try to outdo the current crop of edgy young songwriters who are putting sex, drugs, rock and roll onstage. Could Lerner top them all with the adding songs to the most scandalous book ever written? See what happened was….well, you will need to find out for yourself when we see what happened when Alan Jay Lerner tried to get audiences excited about turning Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita, a book centered on the adoration of nymphets, into a big old musical called Lolita, My Love!
