Pay Me, Bad As Me, Tom Waits [419]
b'
With a brief digression into Beyonc\\xe9\\u2019s oeuvre, Kerry-Jo, Martin and Sam discuss some of the oddities in the writing of Pay Me, and what story Waits is trying to tell. We consider stories of theatrical life, where to find the end of the world, and specificities in the writing of Stephen Sondheim.
