This week, Les chats with writer Eric Holmes about the new recording of Wild About You, the musical for which he wrote the book alongside music and lyrics by Chilina Kennedy.

In addition to wonderful performances by the original album’s all-star cast, the new edition includes two newly recorded bonus tracks, songs written for the show but not included on the original recording. Wild About You – World Premiere Recording: Deluxe Edition in digital and streaming formats on Friday, September 27. 

In Wild About You, main character Olivia finds herself at a life-or-death crossroads. As she faces the fallout of her relentless need to please, the true extent of the chaos she has woven in her life becomes painfully clear. In a race against time, she sifts through the poignant memories of her three great loves, seeking the key to untangling her past. With every revelation, she edges closer to a second chance, driven by the desperate hope of reuniting with the love of her life – her son.

Eric was a writer on the critically acclaimed TV series “The Good Fight” on Paramount+ as well as “Evil” (CBS) and “Smash” (NBC), and we discuss what working on those shows was like, and how it differs from writing for the stage.

Let's hear the title track from the album, then jump into the interview with acclaimed writer for television and stage, Eric Holmes.
