Tonight's show was going to be a Tony Special. But I'm petty and Death Becomes Her didn't win everything. And I'm still mad about The Wiz being snubbed last year. So instead, we turn to EVERYBODY's winner... PRIDE MONTH! Send your requests NOW (please) and tune in to @nearfm at 6 this evening ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Unfortunately, listeners, due to a SNAFU in Jaye's world, the Charles Strouse tribute needs to be postponed - tonight on @nearfm.ie instead, you have the pleasure of hearing last week's broadcast. Many apologies. Have a great evening, have an even better week and I'll catch you next time. J

Musicals, Film & TV entertainment this week includes a sporty fact & a tale of misinformation – the irony though, when Jaye says that St Brigid’s Day is on Friday instead of Thursday, is real. Twice. She can't read a calendar, but she DOES play some stage & screen bangers.

Jan 10th 1947, Finian's Rainbow came to Broadway with a clunky, but unequivocal message condemning racial prejudice. With Burton Lane's music & Yip Harburg's lyrics, if you can forgive the clumsiness of the attempt to admonish racism, you'll find one of the best scores in musical theatre history.
