The schedule for the week of Aug. 11-17 follows.

Center Stage
Aug. 11: The Phantom of the Opera is here inside...the Playbill Radio Studio! John Cudia, a former Broadway Raoul, has rejoined the cast as permanent replacement for the Phantom. He tells us how he first saw the show as a high school student in the 1980s and followed a career path that took him ever closer to the Phantom's mask. Joining him in the studio is George Lee Andrews, the only actor who has stayed with the show (in various roles) for its entire 21-year run (the longest in Broadway history). They share backstage secrets for keeping the show fresh, sexy...and scary.
