Show People with Paul Wontorek: Alan Menken 

Excellent interview, Alan Menken is such a wonderful man - his stories are great, the thought of his parents listening to the cassette and the horror just growing lol

He's just the sweetest!

Beauty and the Beast is my all time favorite musical! I would love to see Tangled get the broadway treatment too!

The bad review was hilarious; I actually adore God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater, it's very underrated! Did he say "new animated musical" at the end? That would be so great; he hasn't really done an animated film in nearly 10 years, not since Tangled. I also do hope there are more productions of Hercules, and we definitely need a cast album, to listen to all the new songs! This interview really made my day, I love Alan Menken so much!

This man is as important as Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, or Beethoven. There, I said it.

This semester at my conservatory is all Menken and Schwartz! Such an icon! I’m singing this cute little song he wrote for Life With Mikey! Such a cool episode!!!

Thank you, this was a great interview.. just too short, i bet we all could listen for another hour. And thanks for not avoiding the deep questions.

Class act.

From "Little Shop" to "Mermaid" to "Galavant", I love this guy 🥰
