For those interested, I interviewed Tasia a few months ago, she is a gem and I'm thrilled she's getting to go on as Satine:

Also worth watching or listening to are the interviews I did with Mia DeWeese and Maya Bowles. 

Bass Performance Hall in Ft. Worth, Texas is announcing their season in the coming weeks. The Lion King will be part of the season. 

with Mary Kate Morrisey and Eric Huffman leaving the tour after the Memphis stop, has anyone heard any rumors as to who's taking over for Janis and Damian? 

she's incredible! Her portrayal of Satine is my favorite.

Wick3 said: "If a performance is canceled last minute due to covid, I know patrons get a refund. However, do cast members and ushers/theater/stage workers get paid too? or not?"

I was wondering this as well 

The blood test is the only kind I've had done. I just wasn't sure if Broadway accepted those tests. I have a sensory disorder, so swabs are a big no, as a kid doctors always had to find other ways to test me for strep. 

Anyone have any insight/know if there's any chance of a John Orpheus debut on October 20-24? 

Or an Afra as Persephone show? 

Hi all! Hope everyone’s 2021 has gotten off to a good start. This month I’ve been continuing my interview series and striving to bring much needed Broadway content and conversations to other Broadway fans who miss theatre as much as I do and I wanted to share a couple links to my recent interviews with

Let me know any thoughts or (nice) suggestions you have, questions I should add to my general list of questions I already have, and definitely let me know who you’d like to see me interview next!
 
I know there are lots of Broadway podcasts and interviews out there right now and really hope mine along with all the others manage to help to fill that void in all our lives.

Personally I loved everything about it (including James Corden). The only reason I had conflicting feelings about the movie was because of the lack of cast members from the Broadway show in the movie, besides that I thought the whole cast and crew did a really great job. 

ANOTHER NEW INTERVIEW!

This past week I talked with Elena Ricardo who you might know from Mamma Mia or Beautiful on Broadway. On this episode I talked with Elena about her when and how she decided to trade gymnastics for theatre, how her gymnastics past helped her with the audition for the World Premiere of Bring It On The Musical, getting to tour the country as part of the Mamma Mia ensemble, her Broadway debut, her reaction when she was told that she was going to play Sophie Sheridan in Mamma Mia on Broadway, her most memorable experiences from being part of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, getting to meet Carole King, her dream roles, and MUCH MORE!

Hope you all enjoy it:

Hoping to find out when Broadway returns! 

I had the pleasure of interviewing Audrey Cardwell who's been part of National Tours such as "Anything Goes", "Elf", "Cinderella", "Bright Star", and most recently "Falsettos" last Friday and wanted to share our conversation here. If you check out the interview let me know what you think!
