Aladdin is back! Michael James Scott (aka Genie) granted our wish and shared with us what it’s like to return to Broadway after a long hiatus.
In “A Commercial Jingle for Regina Comet” Alex Wyse and Ben Fankhauser serve up a humorous and witty show as both performers and writers.
The road to Broadway can be a bumpy ride, but Josh Lamon has proven that hard work and persistence can pay off. Obsessed with theater from an early age, success did not come easy and it took 10 years of ups and downs in NYC before Josh finally made his Broadway debut.
Gerard Canonico made his Broadway debut at ten years old. Since then, he has had a busy career in shows like Spring Awakening and Groundhog Day. Gerard is currently playing Rich in Be More Chill and is starring in the movie musical, Stuck.
Women like Chilina Kennedy are blazing new trails on Broadway. While founding a new theater company and developing her own show, she is also playing Carole King in Beautiful: The Carole King Musical eight times a week. Add the role of Mom to her already packed schedule and you’ll understand why she redefines what it means to be a “Natural Woman.”
Michael Campayno’s Broadway journey is a pretty magical tale. While still in college, he was cast in The Sound of Music Live! and then went on to star in Wicked as Fiyero. Now he’s tackling his first original role as Rob Camilletti, Cher’s boyfriend in The Cher Show.
Two months after arriving in NYC, Taylor Iman Jones made her Broadway debut in the ensemble of Groundhog Day. Now barely two years later she takes center stage as Mopsa in the new musical, Head Over Heels.
The thrilling sound effects in SpongeBob SquarePants add a whole new level of wow factor to the wildly entertaining production. We asked the Tony nominated duo, Walter Trarbach & Mike Dobson how they use Foley to create all the whizz, bangs, zonks, squishes and boings during the show.
I think in these rousing days of such influential and powerful movements as #metoo, #timesup, etc, Tina Fey’s creation – Mean Girls on Broadway, stands out as being especially relevant. Her musical adaption isn’t so much a performance as it is a live-action force of inclusion and feminism.
Kate Rockwell is making fetch happen in Mean Girls on Broadway with her pink ensemble and perfect comedic timing. But this girl is no joke! Nominated for a Drama Desk Award for her role as Karen, she also just released her new solo album Back To My Roots, which features songs that inspired her to become a performer.
Tony-winner Clint Ramos understands the importance of design in a Broadway show. He knows that the visuals inform a story just as much as the dialogue. His work is particularly informative in the current revival of Once On This Island, which uses “trash” materials to reflect modern day Hurricane-ravaged cultures.
Performing on Broadway at any age is challenging, especially for kids who have to balance school and work.
