This week on the pod, we’re hitching up the wagon and heading west—with chaos in tow. Join us as we chat with the cast and crew of The Trail to Oregon!, presented by I Hate This Stupid Bike Productions. Based on the cult-favorite musical from Team StarKid, this choose-your-own-adventure comedy follows one wildly dysfunctional pioneer family through pixelated peril, unexpected songs, and audience-decided doom.

We go behind the scenes of the 8-bit-inspired mayhem, meet the actors bringing it to life, and unpack how this interactive frontier story turns a nostalgic computer game into a full-on theatrical adventure. Hear what it’s like to die onstage (multiple ways), sing through dysentery, and keep a straight face while the audience picks who bites the dust.

Starring:
