A New York-based actor, writer, and sketch comedian with roots in The Second City and a degree from Northwestern University, Liz has built a career blending improv, character work, and deeply personal storytelling. The show—already a sold-out hit Off-Broadway—dives into her real-life experience growing up alongside a loved one struggling with addiction, all told through the lens of a hyper-positive, larger-than-life alter ego. But here’s the magic: Lizzy Sunshine isn’t heavy—it’s electric. Packed with musical numbers, audience interaction, and high-energy comedy, the show balances laugh-out-loud moments with real emotional depth. Liz flips “toxic positivity” on its head, exploring what it means to always be the strong one while quietly carrying the weight behind the scenes. And in true Roundtable fashion, this is exactly the kind of conversation that hits—fun, honest, and unexpectedly moving. You’ll laugh, you might cry, and you’ll definitely walk away thinking about the people in your own life who’ve had to be “the sunshine.” Watch The Roundtable with Robert Bannon across BroadwayWorld, YouTube, Spotify, Apple, iHeart, and the Broadway Podcast Network.

An actor and comedian with a natural stage presence, Nemec dives into his own childhood growing up in a dysfunctional, alcoholic household, using storytelling that is both brutally honest and darkly funny. A Cat in a Box traces his journey from a turbulent upbringing in the 1970s through the emotional scars that followed, revealing how trauma shapes identity and relationships. But what makes this piece hit is the balance—it’s not just heavy, it’s human. Through evocative monologues and moments of humor, Nemec brings audiences into the chaos, the silence, and ultimately the healing. The show explores love, loss, and survival while reminding us that even the darkest past can lead to growth and purpose.

Fares stars as a beloved Egyptian actor forced into a dangerous game when he’s pushed to portray a real-life dictator in a state-controlled propaganda film. What starts as a career move quickly spirals into a high-stakes world of surveillance, manipulation, and life-or-death consequences. In our conversation, Dabis—who plays a key figure caught in the web of power—dives into the film’s deeper themes: censorship, loyalty, and the cost of speaking truth in a controlled system. This is more than a thriller—it’s a chilling reflection on how governments shape narratives and how artists navigate that reality.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Jason McGee is stepping into a powerful new season with Another Tomorrow, a stirring new release from Jason McGee & The Choir that is already resonating across the gospel world. The 14-track album blends soaring choir moments with intimate testimony, featuring songs like “God This Time” and “Just Another Day” that lean into themes of perseverance, redemption, and unwavering faith. Released in March 2026, the project showcases McGee’s signature ability to fuse traditional gospel roots with contemporary sound, creating an experience that feels both timeless and urgently now.

But this record hits deeper than just great music—it’s personal. McGee has shared that Another Tomorrow was born out of one of the darkest periods of his life, as he navigated depression and fought to believe in brighter days ahead. What emerged is not just an album, but a testimony—one that transforms pain into praise and struggle into strength. With a choir that lifts every note sky-high and a message that meets listeners exactly where they are, this project is a reminder that no matter how heavy today feels… there is always another tomorrow.

Premiering April 22, 2026, the film follows a four-year investigation led by journalist William D. Cohan and private investigator Tyler Maroney as they attempt to uncover the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto—the anonymous creator of Bitcoin. Through rare interviews with major voices in the crypto world and deep forensic research, the film explores not just the “who,” but the “why” behind a figure who has reshaped global finance forever. But Finding Satoshi is more than just a financial whodunit—it’s a human story wrapped in code, secrecy, and revolution. Miele and Tooley bring a cinematic lens to a topic often locked behind tech jargon, making it accessible, urgent, and surprisingly emotional. With billions of dollars and the future of decentralized finance tied to this mystery, the film dares to ask the question the world has been chasing for nearly two decades—and delivers what it calls a definitive answer. It’s bold, it’s investigative, and it’s exactly the kind of conversation that will have audiences leaning in and questioning everything they thought they knew about money, power, and anonymity.

Lost in Del Valle is the gripping, genre-bending solo play written and performed by Van Zandt and directed by Arison, now making its New York run at SoHo Playhouse after a celebrated run at the Edinburgh Fringe. But what makes this conversation even better? These two go way back—they first met working together on The Blacklist, and now reunite to bring this deeply personal, unforgettable story to the stage. We talk about that full-circle moment—collaborators then and now—as Amir steps in as director, bringing his experience as a TV star (The Blacklist) and Broadway standout (The Kite Runner) to shape this powerful piece. Ned shares how his real-life journey—from the chaos of the Chelsea Hotel to addiction, fame, and ultimately redemption—became this intense theatrical experience.

Now, she’s stepping into the world of Chess, a beloved cult classic with a legendary score by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of ABBA, exploring how choreography helps shape the emotional and political tension at the heart of this powerful story.

In this engaging conversation, Latarro shares how she approaches reimagining such a fan-favorite piece, balancing respect for its legacy with a fresh, contemporary lens. We talk about the evolution of dance on Broadway, collaboration with directors and performers, and how movement can elevate storytelling in a show driven by high stakes and even higher emotions. It’s a fascinating look inside the creative process from one of the best in the business—and a must-watch for theater lovers!

Composed of violinist Jonathan Miron and cellist Philip Sheegog, ARKAI blends classical technique with cinematic power and crossover energy that resonates far beyond genre lines. Their sophomore album Brightside won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, a milestone moment for artists who started with impromptu jam sessions and developed a sound they describe as “Hans Zimmer meets 2CELLOS.” ARKAI’s journey — from meeting at The Juilliard School to touring globally and crafting music that moves audiences emotionally — is a study in creative courage, collaboration, and independent artistry. Their work spans original compositions and electrifying arrangements that defy categorization, and their performances have taken them from high-profile stages to cultural moments that stick with listeners long after the last note. In our conversation, they unpack their musical evolution, the story behind their Grammy win for Brightside, and the creative partnership that continues to push them into new terrain. Whether you think you “don’t listen to instrumental music,” ARKAI’s passion and vision might just change your mind.

Five performers. Four treadmills. One ticking clock. What unfolds is part comedy, part endurance sport, and part theatrical chaos — as the cast attempts to complete an escalating to-do list (yes, cooking a three-course meal and filling out a grant application included) all while running full speed. If they don’t finish in 60 minutes? The audience can get their money back. Adrienne spoke with the cast and creatives about the athletic precision, backstage madness, and the deeper message behind this high-octane exploration of modern burnout and ambition. The VIP carpet was just as electric, with Broadway favorite Andy Karl, rising star JJ Niemann, powerhouse performer Lakisha May, and Broadway alum Bailey Ryon stopping to celebrate the show’s opening night energy. From laughter to sweat to unexpected emotional punches, Burnout Paradise proves that sometimes the most exhilarating theatre happens when you’re racing against time.

Dylan opens up about her journey from Catholic school roots to internet fame, the joy and pressure of being in the public eye, and why humor has been her greatest tool for resilience. We dive into the process of reclaiming labels, transforming backlash into art, and why this Off-Broadway moment is such a powerful next chapter in her story. It’s candid, funny, fearless — and absolutely Dylan. Watch The Roundtable with Robert Bannon on Broadway World, the Broadway Podcast Network, iHeart, Spotify, Apple, YouTube & wherever you stream.

Known for his work in both the cultural and political arenas—including his time as White House Deputy Social Secretary under President Barack Obama—Burnough brings a uniquely thoughtful and intersectional lens to storytelling. Following his acclaimed debut documentary The Capote Tapes, Burnough turns his attention to another American literary icon—Jack Kerouac. With narration by The Sopranos star Michael Imperioli and appearances by W. Kamau Bell, Josh Brolin, Matt Dillon, Natalie Merchant, and Beat Generation contemporaries like Joyce Johnson, the film traces the impact and contradictions of On the Road and the Beat movement through a modern lens. From race and class to queerness and counterculture, Kerouac’s Road explores how one book helped shape—and still challenges—what it means to be free in America. We talk to Ebs about the making of the film, the road trips he took with today’s artists and thinkers to retrace Kerouac’s steps, and the complicated legacy of the man behind the myth. It’s a stunning film and a timely conversation that will leave you inspired, provoked, and maybe even packing your bags. 🎞 Premiering August 1, 2025, in select theaters and festivals. 🔔 Don’t forget to Like, Subscribe, and Comment! 📺 Watch "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" daily on: Broadway World, BPN, YouTube, iHeart, Spotify, Apple Podcasts & more! 🌐 More about Robert: www.RobertBannon.com 📸 Instagram: @RobertMBannon Learn more about your ad choices.

Kamau Bell, Josh Brolin, Matt Dillon, Natalie Merchant, and Beat Generation contemporaries like Joyce Johnson, the film traces the impact and contradictions of On the Road and the Beat movement through a modern lens. From race and class to queerness and counterculture, Kerouac’s Road explores how one book helped shape—and still challenges—what it means to be free in America. We talk to Ebs about the making of the film, the road trips he took with today’s artists and thinkers to retrace Kerouac’s steps, and the complicated legacy of the man behind the myth. It’s a stunning film and a timely conversation that will leave you inspired, provoked, and maybe even packing your bags. 🎞 Premiering August 1, 2025, in select theaters and festivals. 🔔 Don’t forget to Like, Subscribe, and Comment! 📺 Watch "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" daily on: Broadway World, BPN, YouTube, iHeart, Spotify, Apple Podcasts & more! 🌐 More about Robert: www.RobertBannon.com 📸 Instagram: @RobertMBannon Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 1183 no Ep 543- Daniel Junge and Sam Pollard Talk The Tribeca Doc: I WAS BORN THIS WAY! Surviving racism, homophobia and childhood trauma, Carl Bean found his voice through song – first as a gospel singer in Harlem’s Christian Tabernacle Choir and then later performing with his group Carl Bean and Universal Love on their 1974 album “Universal Love.” But it was the recording of the 1977 Motown hit “I Was Born This Way” that would earn him fame; the song was celebrated as the world’s first gay anthem.However, Bean eschewed a mainstream music career…instead choosing a vocation in activism. He started the Minority AIDS Project -- serving a vital role for underserved populations during the AIDS Crisis. And he founded Unity Fellowship Church — the first LGBTQ+ ministry. Using innovative rotoscope animation and featuring appearances by Lady Gaga, Questlove, Billy Porter, and Dionne Warwick, I WAS BORN THIS WAY celebrates the life and legacy of the unapologetic gay Black trailblazer and his resounding message, “love is for everyone.” The directors tell us how the movie came to be, what they learned, and why it is perfect for today! __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

]]> 1606 no Ep 541- The Cast & Creatives of 'Mother, May I Have A Kidney' Fresh From Tribeca! You know we try to stay on top of things here at The Roundtable! Well we are telling you, this is the next TV smash! We caught this at Tribeca and had to share! Mother, May I Have a Kidney? is a heartfelt comedy-drama about Doug Andrews, a thirty-something navigating a full-blown midlife crisis when he’s hit with even worse news: he needs a kidney transplant. The only viable donor? His estranged mother, Rhonda — a sharp-tongued, boundary-challenged woman he hasn’t spoken to in over a decade. As Doug attempts the most awkward reunion of his life, old wounds resurface, expectations clash, and long-buried family secrets threaten to derail the one thing that could save him. But in the awkward, often hilarious process of orchestrating this unwanted reconciliation, Doug might just discover that healing a relationship can be as life-saving as the organ itself. The series features a talented cast including Doug Plaut (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Hurricane Bianca franchise), Tina Benko ("The Greatest Showman," The Rehearsal, for which she won an EmmyⓇ for Best Supporting Actress in a Digital Series), Darius de Haas (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Charlotte Ray Rosenberg (Sneaky Pete, FBI: Most Wanted), Troy Iwata (Dash and Lily, "Summoning Sylvia"), and features Myra Lucretia Taylor, Lydia Gaston, and Drew McVety.

]]> 1599 no Bonus Chat: Podcast Superstar Patrick Hinds Talks Bea Arthur, True Crime Obsessed, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We had a blast with podcast superstar Patrick Hinds! He is coming to NY this week, but hurry! It is pretty sold ou! Come for the show, stay for the party! Patrick Hinds (co-host of the podcasts True Crime Obsessed and Golden Girls Deep Dive Podcast) is bringing his one of a kind storytelling event back across the country. This time he’s mashing up a hilariously disastrous evening he spent with Golden Girls ICON Bea Arthur (he loved her, she hated him) with the unexpected arrival of his newborn daughter.

]]> 1473 no Ep 529- Director Clay Tweel Talks "Andy Kaufman Is Me"- A New Doc! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We love us some Andy Kaufman! He was a trailblazer, brilliant, and ahead of his time! We were so excited to hear about this new doc at Tribeca. We have the director Clay Tweel here to tell us all about this comedic mastermind! This revealing documentary offers unprecedented access to the private world of comedy's most enigmatic provocateur, Andy Kaufman, through a treasure trove of never-before-heard audio recordings. Created during the height of his fame, these audio diaries serve as personal journals, capturing Kaufman's inner thoughts, performance ideas and reflections on his unfinished semi-autobiographical book, "The Huey Williams Story." While Kaufman never completed this surrealist work before his untimely death, director Clay Tweel brings these pages to life with imaginative marionette puppetry, creating a mesmerizing glimpse into Kaufman's creative process. Featuring intimate interviews with family members Michael and Carol Kaufman, along with close friends and collaborators including David Letterman, Carol Kane and Tim Heidecker, the film peels away the layers of performance to reveal the thoughtful, complex man behind the provocative public persona. By embracing Kaufman's own philosophical view that no one is a monolith, this captivating documentary presents a nuanced portrait of the artist while challenging audiences to reconsider what they thought they knew about this boundary-pushing entertainer's life, art and legacy.

]]> 1439 no Ep 527-A Look At Tribeca Shorts: Hicks Happy Hour & Baby Tooth! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable The future is here and we have the next generation of filmmakers! Both of them have films coming to Tribeca! Are you ready? “Baby Tooth”, starring Dakota Bouher and the late Keith Roy Chrismon, is a darkly funny showdown that takes place in a rural Oregon parking lot. Marina has two things to offer: her grandfather’s antique speedboat and a stubborn baby tooth. When a local man answers her ad, things quickly go sideways. Speaking about the film, Olivia has said:““Baby Tooth” comes from a version of my experience navigating life in rural coastal Oregon as an outsider. I was born and raised in Lake Hopatcong, NJ, and moved to the Oregon Coast from Los Angeles in 2021. Accardo is a filmmaker, animator, and art director from Lake Hopatcong, New Jersey, now based on the southern Oregon coast. Her short films have screened at Oscar-qualifying festivals including Seattle International Film Festival and HollyShorts, and her latest, “Baby Tooth”, is an official selection of the 2025 Tribeca Festival. Her independent work explores female outliers, absurd social tension, and deadpan discomfort, often with a handcrafted visual sensibility. Olivia’s earlier short “Cupcake Bob” was selected for PBS’ Film School Shorts, and her web series “One True Loves" premiered at Seattle International and won multiple awards during its festival run. She studied film at Syracuse University and FAMU in Prague and is a recipient of the Saul Zaentz Innovation Fund Fellowship, the Future of Film is Female grant, and the Lighthouse International Film Festival Writers Residency. Writer Director of Hicks Happy Hour Kate McCarthy is a writer/director based in Los Angeles, from San Francisco. She graduated from the AFI Conservatory in 2024 with an MFA in Directing. Kate’s AFI thesis film THE HICKS HAPPY HOUR won Best Comedy Series at the 44th College Television Awards—more commonly known as the student Emmys—and will world premiere at the 2025 Tribeca Festival. The film is also set to play at the American Pavilion Emerging Filmmaker Showcase at Cannes, and Raindance Film Festival. Prior to AFI, Kate’s 2022 debut short LOOK, MIRA was described by Vulture as “a stylishly bittersweet coming-of-age comedy in the Todd Solondz–Wes Anderson mold that’s bursting with color and idiosyncrasy.” The film played at the Oscar- qualifying LA Shorts Fest, the National Film Festival for Talented Youth, and is now streaming on Directors Notes and NoBudge, where its ranked as one of their “Top 12 Most Viewed of AllTime.” Before film, Kate earned a BA in Theater Arts from the University of Minnesota—Twin Cities. During that time, she also interned at SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, CONAN, FULL FRONTAL WITH SAMANTHA BEE, and The Second City.

]]> 1277 no BONUS CHAT: Nathaniel Lezra Tells The Tale of Roads Of Fire! A Must See Doc! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Acclaimed filmmaker Nathaniel Lezra talks all about his latest documentary,  Roads of Fire, as it prepares for its New York premiere at the 28th Brooklyn Film Festival. This film is more important and timely than ever! Lezra is known for capturing urgent, human-centered stories across both documentary and narrative formats. His work often focuses on social and geopolitical crises, bringing a distinct and deeply empathetic lens to global issues.  Roads of Fire is a powerful exploration of the global migration crisis, weaving together the stories of a human smuggler guiding refugees through the perilous Darién Gap, an asylum seeker navigating life in New York, and frontline volunteers offering aid amidst one of today’s most pressing humanitarian challenges. Told through intimate, personal narratives, the film offers an unflinching yet compassionate look at migration, illuminating the interconnected struggles and resilience of those seeking safety and dignity. “This film is as much about the cost of immigration policy as it is about the resilience of the people impacted by it,” said Lezra. “Given that much of the story unfolds in Brooklyn, having our New York premiere here—at a festival known for championing bold, socially conscious storytelling—feels incredibly meaningful.” Premiering earlier this year at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, Roads of Fire earned critical acclaim and was awarded “Best Documentary Film 2025.” It also had its European premiere in Croatia at ZagrebDox Film Festival earlier this year. The film has been lauded for its emotional depth, immersive storytelling, and timely subject matter. The film is produced by Nathaniel Lezra, Malcolm Bird, Benjamin Wellington, Nicole Tao, David Wu.

]]> 1152 no Ep 519- Actor/Writer/Director Max Talisman Celebrates Pride With "Things Like This!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We love Pride! We love Queer Artists! We love Rom-Coms! We can not love a Queer Rom Com more & this one is just so freaking GOOD! Max Talisman makes his Roundtable debut to talk his journey to his feature film "Things Like This!" "Things Like This" marks Max’s debut as a feature filmmaker and is the first release from his production company. The film follows two men named Zack whose unexpected connection forces them to navigate the long-term emotional aftermath of growing up queer. It is a romantic film, but not one defined by fantasy or formula. Max stars opposite Joey Pollari ("American Crime," "Love, Victor"), Jackie Cruz ("Orange Is the New Black"), Nicholas Hamilton ("It," "Captain Fantastic"), Eric Roberts ("The Dark Knight," "Runaway Train"), and Cara Buono ("Stranger Things," "Mad Men"). Max wrote the script in 2017, after nearly a decade of working in film and television and realizing how infrequently someone like him was invited into the center of the frame. His credits include "Super Dark Times," "Search Party," "Orange Is the New Black," and "The Blacklist,” and while each of these roles contributed to a steady career, they rarely allowed for interiority, desire, or emotional complexity. "Things Like This" was his attempt to shift that dynamic, not only by writing himself into a story that felt lived-in and layered, but by taking ownership of every aspect of how that story would be told. Max grew up in Washington, D.C., where he first fell in love with performance, onstage, in classrooms, anywhere someone would let him be a little too much. That early love of storytelling eventually led him to film and television, where he built a career across television. But as a queer, plus-size actor, Max quickly realized that the kinds of roles he was offered rarely reflected the full range of who he was. So he started writing. "Things Like This" is his response to years of being told, directly or indirectly, that people like him could be funny or supportive, but not the center of a love story. With this film, and through his production company Malibu, Bro Productions, Max is creating the kind of work he spent years waiting to be invited into.

]]> 1302 no Ep 518- "Death Of Rasputin" Comes To Governor's Island In NYC! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable A new immersive theatrical experience created by and featuring original cast members from Sleep No More. Artemis is Burning—a formidable, female-led creative force comprised of industry veterans from film, television, and theater—is bringing The Death of Rasputin to Governors Island beginning later this month. The Death of Rasputin is no mere play; it is a descent into decadence, a fever-dream of power, prophecy, and betrayal. This debaucherous satire unfolds as a lavish, unholy revel, conjuring the espionage and mysticism that danced at the edges of the Romanov dynasty in its twilight hour. Here, every character claws for dominion, every ambition is laced with poison, and every grasp for power pulls them closer to the abyss. Ashley Brett Chipman (Creator Co-Director) is haunted by beautifully strange worlds. She has a background in film, dance, installation art and everything whimsical. She has worked in set decorating for film and television for over a decade on projects ranging from M Night Shyamalan “Servant” to Ryan Murphy’s “American Horror Stories.” There she has led large teams to create countless visually rich worlds for characters to inhabit. She has an eye for beautiful objects, patterns and color storiesand an ear for music that sets a mesmerizing mood. Working in the film industry has fine-tuned her skills to a bottle rocket speed and expanded her creative network infinitely. Her desire to take her profession to a living and breathing enchanted world with a present audience, along with her never ceasing infatuation with the mystery surrounding Rasputin and Imperial Russia, has inspired her to create The Death of Rasputin. Hope Youngblood (Creative Producer &Co-Director) is captivated by theenchantment of immersive experiences. With a background steeped in directing, visual art, and dance, she thrives at the intersection of creativity and audience interaction. Formerly the Resident Director of Punchdrunk’s Sleep No More in Shanghai (2018- 2022), Hope has curated mesmerizing campaigns, photo shoots, music videos and events for prestigious brands such as Valentino Act Collection, TikTok, and Tom Ford. Her career is a testament to her passion for transporting audiences into fantastical realms. From commanding roles in Sleep No More productions across Boston, New York, and Shanghai, to her collaborations with Davis Freemans Random Scream and Patricia Noworol Dance Theater, Hope is known for crafting immersive worlds that blur the lines between reality and imagination.

]]> 1495 no Ep 514- Persephone Palmer Steps Out, A New Work, Comes To Theater for the New City! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Theater for the New City, Crystal Field Executive Director, presents Persephone Palmer Steps Out, a darkly comedic, magical-realism new play about the god-like nature of familial hierarchies, written by Caitlyn Waltermire. Natalie Thomas directs a cast of eight, including Sophie Kelly-Hedrick*, Zuhairah*, Guy Ventoliere*, Alec Febbraro, Diogo de Oliveira, Elizabeth Sherman, Phil Oetiker, and Jessalyn Charles.  We have the writer Caitlyn Waltermire and director Natalie Thomas here! Eleven performances will be staged from June 19-July 6, 2025, at Theater for the New City, 155 First Avenue, New York, NY 10003. *Appearing courtesy of Actors’ Equity Association. AEA Showcase. Persephone Palmer Steps Out is set during a wintery, sub-zero Summer in the 1990s in a basement apartment hundreds of feet below the ground. This is the home of the Palmer family, headed by the tempestuous and charismatic Connie, whose marriage to the devoted and enabling Herm oversees a fraught dynamic with her fractious stepson Joe. The occasional wandering-ins of Stef, Joe’s girlfriend, and their new friend Paul punctuate the isolated family’s routine, as do the shambolic visits from Connie’s brother Richard and his much-younger wife Lisa. Despite the magical setting of the play, the dynamics between the characters are rooted in realism – except for the fact that Persie, the Palmer's 13-year-old human daughter, is the family's "cat.” Yet as the landscape shifts and Persie begins to bond with some of the new visitors, it appears that some changes may be underway – for better or for worse. With character archetypes derived from Greek mythology, Persephone Palmer Steps Out is a darkly hilarious exploration of the god-like nature of familial hierarchies, the contingencies of love, conditional acceptance, and the divine, desperate pursuit of control. The runtime is approximately 90 minutes with no intermission. Performances are Thursdays-Saturdays at 8:00 p.m., and Sundays at 3:00 p.m. There is no performance on July 4th. General admission tickets are $20, student and seniors are $15.

The occasional wandering-ins of Stef, Joe’s girlfriend, and their new friend Paul punctuate the isolated family’s routine, as do the shambolic visits from Connie’s brother Richard and his much-younger wife Lisa. Despite the magical setting of the play, the dynamics between the characters are rooted in realism – except for the fact that Persie, the Palmer's 13-year-old human daughter, is the family's "cat.” Yet as the landscape shifts and Persie begins to bond with some of the new visitors, it appears that some changes may be underway – for better or for worse. With character archetypes derived from Greek mythology, Persephone Palmer Steps Out is a darkly hilarious exploration of the god-like nature of familial hierarchies, the contingencies of love, conditional acceptance, and the divine, desperate pursuit of control. The runtime is approximately 90 minutes with no intermission. Performances are Thursdays-Saturdays at 8:00 p.m., and Sundays at 3:00 p.m. There is no performance on July 4th. General admission tickets are $20, student and seniors are $15.

]]> 1402 no Bonus Chat: Double Bill: Witches & Aliens w/ ENCOUNTER and CHRISTMAS EVE IN DIKANKA https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Double Bill: Witches and Aliens, a comedic, entertaining and otherworldly evening of two hysterical theatrical works directed and choreographed by Jen Wineman. Three performances of Zena Wood’s ENCOUNTER: A Space Cabaret, and Kit Goldstein Grant’s CHRISTMAS EVE IN DIKANKA: A Musical In-Concert will be staged June 12, 13, and 14, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. at The Duplex Cabaret Theatre, 61 Christopher Street, New York, NY 10014. About Encounter: A Space Cabaret They come in peace…and for the eggs. A comedy-driven space cabaret that lands somewhere between a late-night weather show and a cosmic fever dream where nothing is linear. Live from New York, it’s Space Weather Girl! What if an alien encounter was more human condition and less lasers? Add some old-time Hollywood charm, a historical “mating program,” and you’ve got yourself a show! As a studio audience, you will witness the mysterious broadcast sparking an interplanetary moment. You’ll wonder at a spectacular alien dance performance and you’ll do all of this in a fraction of a second (60 minutes). It’s a science thing. Come for the facts, the songs and the comedy, and find yourself unexpectedly heart-warmed. Featuring Brandon Weber as Greg. Loosely based on a pilot episode script of a similar theme written by Zena Wood for screen, Encounter also borrows inspiration from various projects Zena has created since 2018 as the fictional character Space Weather Girl, including on YouTube, two music videos filmed and recorded: Space Christmas, and All I Want for ChristMars is Mars, a Christmas solo show performed at the Drama Factory in South Africa - Space Weather Girl Christmas Extravaganza, and multiple comedy open mics and videos performed as the character. About Christmas Eve in Dikanka: A Musical In-Concert A new musical based on the story by Ukrainian novelist Nikolai Gogol. It’s Christmas Eve in Dikanka, and a blacksmith must find fancy shoes like those worn by the Czarina in the next few hours or lose the heart of his lady love. But when the Devil comes to town, will he give up his soul for a sole? And what will he do about his mother, who is a promiscuous witch? No really, an actual witch. This loosely adapted take on Nikolai Gogol’s story sets the show in a meta-theatrical universe which combines a Ukrainian 19th-century absurdist tone and a modern sensibility, plus a lotta slapstick. Playwright Kit Goldstein Grant shares, “I first read CHRISTMAS EVE by Nikolai Gogol when doing research for another musical based on a Gogol story. That show went on to productions in NYC and South Africa, but I couldn’t shake my memory of CHRISTMAS EVE, and the sheer exuberant fun of the piece. Yes, there was a love story, but most intriguing to me was the relationship between the blacksmith and his mother, a promiscuous witch. Now, this, THIS was interesting! Not to mention, funny. Is it relevant that I was mom to a fairly-new son myself when I started writing this piece? Possibly. Relevant that I was approaching the 40-year mark when women suddenly become irrelevant, and I had something to say about that? Possibly. But probably not. Probably I just wanted to write a fun show." The writers Kit & Zena are here to tell us all about it!

But when the Devil comes to town, will he give up his soul for a sole? And what will he do about his mother, who is a promiscuous witch? No really, an actual witch. This loosely adapted take on Nikolai Gogol’s story sets the show in a meta-theatrical universe which combines a Ukrainian 19th-century absurdist tone and a modern sensibility, plus a lotta slapstick.

Playwright Kit Goldstein Grant shares, “I first read CHRISTMAS EVE by Nikolai Gogol when doing research for another musical based on a Gogol story. That show went on to productions in NYC and South Africa, but I couldn’t shake my memory of CHRISTMAS EVE, and the sheer exuberant fun of the piece. Yes, there was a love story, but most intriguing to me was the relationship between the blacksmith and his mother, a promiscuous witch. Now, this, THIS was interesting! Not to mention, funny. Is it relevant that I was mom to a fairly-new son myself when I started writing this piece? Possibly. Relevant that I was approaching the 40-year mark when women suddenly become irrelevant, and I had something to say about that? Possibly. But probably not. Probably I just wanted to write a fun show."

The writers Kit & Zena are here to tell us all about it! Do not miss a moment!

But what came before and after that landmark film is as dramatic as the hunt for the great white shark itself. Capturing the many facets of the vibrant, generous, and sometimes polarizing man is his nephew, Christopher, who explores the forces that shaped a dynamic personality—including Robert’s indomitable mother, his deeply troubled father, and his activist sister, Joanna, with whom Robert shared an unbreakable bond. Out of the traumatic events of their childhood in the Orkney Islands and Cornwall, Mrs. Shaw pushed her children to pursue their dreams. For Robert, that dream was acting and writing. Despite a storied career on the British and American stage—as both performer and playwright—and a string of hit films including From Russia with Love, A Man for All Seasons, The Sting, and The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, international celebrity eluded Robert . . . until he was summoned to star in “a little horror film” called Jaws. What happened on-screen was unforgettable. What happened off-screen was chaos. Now Christopher Shaw Myers reveals the true story of the making of the classic. Jaws would become both an artistic success and a worldwide triumph for Robert Shaw. Tragically, for a man shadowed by his father’s demons, it would also signal the beginning of the end. Drawing on family recollections, personal letters, scrapbooks, recordings, extensive interviews, and a lifetime of his own memories, Christopher paints a unique, intimate, and honest portrait of a man he was proud to call his uncle.

But NYC via Atlanta artist Lana Love is far from ordinary. A classically trained powerhouse with roots in opera, jazz, musical theatre, and piano, Love fuses her music with a fierce, theatrical pop-rock sensibility—think Lady Gaga meets Phantom of the Opera, with Broadway drama and a punk-pop bite. Lana’s story reads like a fever dream — from performing as a Disney princess in 40+ countries, to joining Team John Legend on The Voice, and opening for artists like Snoop Dogg, Cold War Kids, Cheat Codes, and Wu-Tang Clan. She first made waves in 2021, with breakout single “American Love” (Apple Music’s SHAZAM Top 40). That same year, she headlined a one-hour solo live PBS special before an audience of 6k at Redlands Bowl Amphitheater, in tribute to her late mentor Frank Fetta.  Since then, she’s contributed as a lyricist and assistant director on Making Malinche —Netflix’s musical collaboration with Nacho Cano and Hans Zimmer—and her track “Lion Heart” was featured in the national tour of American Girl Live – a live-action feature film based on the American Girl doll line.  Offstage, Lana is a fierce advocate for artists' rights – currently serving on the boards of USIPA (Entertainment & Sports) and Copyright Alliance (alongside Peggy Still Johnson). She’s also a 1-on-1 coach at NYC Vocals, and leads masterclasses at institutions like Kent State, American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA) and Florida Gulf Coast University. She is here with a new single called "ANTIDOTE" that you need to check out!

From its vaudeville roots to its present-day renovation, the Palace has served as a stage for generations of legendary performers, including Judy Garland, Bob Hope, Lauren Bacall, and Liza Minnelli.  Co-owners James L. Nederlander and Stewart F. Lane, along with performers and creatives including Bernadette Peters, Joel Grey, Heather Headley, Ben Platt, and Ethan Slater, discuss the Palace Theatre’s legacy in exclusive interviews featured throughout the film. Archival performance footage and commentary from Broadway insiders follow the landmarked theater’s evolution and its $2.5 billion redevelopment project, which preserved the historic venue and raised the entire building 30 feet above Times Square. Playing the Palace has been the dream of many performers since the theatre opened in 1913. For many years the Palace Theatre was the preeminent vaudeville theatre in the country and an engagement in this theatre meant that a performer had “made it.” The who’s who of entertainment royalty have performed on this stage, including Ethel Barrymore, Harry Houdini, Will Rogers, Ethel Merman, Judy Garland, Jerry Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Bette Midler, Shirley MacLaine, and Diana Ross. In 1965, James M. Nederlander turned it into a legitimate theatre for the opening of Sweet Charity starring Gwen Verdon. Since then, it has housed star-studded hits including Lauren Bacall in Applause and Woman of the Year, Richard Kiley in Man of La Mancha, George Hearn in La Cage aux Folles, and Keith Carradine in The Will Rogers Follies. In 1994, the theatre was transformed to house Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, which was followed by their musical, Aida. Glengarry Glen Ross is currently playing at the Palace Theatre.

When True gets trapped in a freak spring blizzard, he must battle injuries, illness, and the bitter cold. While fighting for his survival, True is forced to face his choices and the circumstances that led him to his tenuous situation. Check out the trailer here [linked]. Carlyle Eubank is a writer, director, and producer. He has ridden horses since before he could walk. In his youth he would often help neighbors gather, sort, ship and brand their cattle and continues to do so today.Carlyle went east to attend Amherst College where he studied English Literature, was captain of the Cross Country Team and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Afterwards, he retuned west to the Central Coast of California.  Carlyle began his film career helping his brother William by building sets and makeshift effects.

]]> 1645 no Ep 492- Best Selling Author Robert Dilenschneider Talks "Character!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Character: Life Lessons in Courage, Integrity, and Leadership is a new, inspirational book addressing the need for character as a vital dimension in public and private life. Drawing on his expertise as a leadership advisor, author Robert L. Dilenschneider explores the lives of 31 influential individuals across various fields, from politics and science to religion, whose character-driven leadership left an indelible mark on the world. Whether in politics, science, religion or a myriad of other fields, our national character seems in jeopardy. What’s missing? What trait did the men and women throughout history have that drove society to be the best that it could be? In his portraits, Dilenschneider explores the achievements of the leaders and groundbreakers who shaped our age, as well as their lessons in life and in business that can provide a blueprint for our future. In what ways did character manifest itself in Nelson Mandela, who triumphed over the most dire adversities? In Florence Nightingale and Edith Cavell, who transformed the nursing profession during war and in great peril to themselves? How did Walt Disney find the tenacity to become an iconic entrepreneur?

In his portraits, Dilenschneider explores the achievements of the leaders and groundbreakers who shaped our age, as well as their lessons in life and in business that can provide a blueprint for our future. In what ways did character manifest itself in Nelson Mandela, who triumphed over the most dire adversities?

]]> 1302 no Ep 489- Broadway Star Rachel Potter Celebrates Her New Album "Stages!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Theater star and Nashville recording artist RACHEL POTTER – best known for appearances on Fox TV’s “The X Factor” and the Broadway musicals The Addams Family and Evita – has signed with the innovative new label Joy Machine Records for her upcoming album Stages. The label will release her album in streaming and digital formats and on CD on Friday, May 16. Stages, produced by David Wise, is a curated collection of reimagined Broadway classics, showcasing Rachel’s roots in musical theater and her passion for reinterpreting these iconic songs with full symphonic arrangements. An exciting full throttle listening experience that feels both classic and contemporary, Stages embraces recent stage musicals whose songs aren’t often hard outside the context of the show. Three singles from Stages have already been released: “Come What May / The I Love You Song,” a mashup from Moulin Rouge! and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, featuring Omar Cardona and Marty Thomas; “Pulled,” which Rachel sang on Broadway in The Addams Family; and “My Days,” written by Ingrid Michaelson for the Broadway musical The Notebook.˜ ------------------------------------------------------   RACHEL POTTER – the acclaimed Broadway star and accomplished Nashville Recording artist – has been recognized by US Weekly as “One to Watch” and praised by The Hollywood Reporter for her “crystalline vocals.” With a successful career in both musical theater and country music, Rachel has showcased her talent on stages of all sizes.  Rachel’s impressive resume includes her turn as the ever “popular” Glinda understudy on the National Tour of Wicked. Next, she made her Broadway debut as Wednesday Addams in The Addams Family, where she shared the stage with Bebe Neuwirth and Brooke Shields as Morticia.

]]> 1125 no Ep 485- TV & Cabaret Star Paul Iacono Talks Elaine Stritch & Elton John? https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Paul Iacono, best known as star of G.B.F., Fame, and MTV’s “The Hard Times of RJ Berger,” in the world premiere of The Stritch Is Back: Paul Iacono Sings Elaine Stritch... Sings Elton John on Saturday, May 3 at 9:30 PM. Written and performed by Paul Iacono and directed by Ben Rimalower, the show recreates wildly personal and painfully hilarious moments shared with Elaine from Carnegie Hall to Hollywood, accompanied onstage by music director Drew Wutke, with music consulting and additional arrangements by Peter Saxe. As mentioned in the 2013 documentary, Elaine Stritch: Shoot Me, the octogenarian diva’s aborted final project was to be a cabaret of Elton John songs. The Stritch Is Back: Paul Iacono Sings Elaine Stritch... Sings Elton John imagines how that might have been, in a brassy evening of excess and exposé. Actor and writer Paul Iacono recreates his misadventures with mentor and muse Elaine Stritch, set to the music and lyrics of Elton John and Bernie Taupin. From an awe-struck child in the world of Broadway to an adult creative navigating the challenges of show business, join Paul for a larger-than-life journey through the highs, lows, and lessons learned from his relationship with his indomitable stage-godmother, Elaine Stritch. Paul Iacono (Writer / Performer) is thrilled to return to The Green Room 42. A graduate of Manhattan’s Professional Performing Arts High School, Iacono is best known for portraying the title character on MTV’s “The Hard Times of RJ Berger.” Paul was first featured on “The Rosie O’Donnell Show” at age eight, after she discovered his unique talents for impersonating Frank Sinatra and Ethel Merman. Favorite stage credits include Mercury Fur (The New Group), Bridget Everett’s Rock Bottom (Joe’s Pub), Noël Coward’s Sail Away with Elaine Stritch (Carnegie Hall), and John Guare’s Landscape of the Body, with Lili Taylor and Sherie Rene Scott (Signature Theatre). Favorite film credits include MGM’s remake of Fame, Darren Stein’s G.B.F., and Dating My Mother with Kathy Najimy. Iacono's play Prince/Elizabeth premiered at The Teatro LATEA Theater co-starring Sofia Black D’Elia and Peter Vack, The Last Great Dame (loosely inspired by his relationship with Elaine Stritch) at Jane Friedman’s HOWL! Happening Gallery, and High Priest, the Andy Warhol Silver Factory epic, at La MaMa Experiments Play Reading Series. His cabaret “Where’s The F*cking Kid?” premiered at 54 Below, with “Psychedelic Hedonism” following at Joe’s Pub (New York Magazine “Critic’s Pick”), followed by “Psychedelic Playhouse,” and most recently “Paul Iacono, Unfiltered,” both at The Green Room 42. He was named one of Out 100’s most influential after coming out in Michael Musto’s Village Voice column in 2011. Iacono has six other projects in development, including his downtown cult-favorite, Gotham Rogues: The Unauthorized Batman Parody Musical, which will have its first full presentation this September at Joe’s Pub. Instagram: @PsychedelicHedonism The Stritch Is Back: Paul Iacono Sings Elaine Stritch...

]]> 1808 no Ep 483- Best Selling Author Patrick Bringley Makes His Off- Broadway Debut! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable All The Beauty In The World, a new one-man play written and performed by Patrick Bringley, based on his New York Times Best-Selling memoir, will play the DR2 Theatre (103 E. 15th Street), it was announced today. Directed by Dominic Dromgoole (Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London from 2006 – 2016; Julius Caesar; Romeo and Juliet; Present Laughter), Patrick Bringley’s All The Beauty In The World is a portrait of one man's life through a time of transition. While looking for somewhere to contemplate his life and heal from his brother’s death, Patrick quits his high-profile journalism career at The New Yorker and seeks refuge in the most beautiful place he can think of: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Through his job as a Museum Guard, Patrick starts his life anew, all while falling under the spell of the place and the people he meets there. As his connection to the art around him grows, so does Patrick, until he gradually emerges... transformed by all the beauty. The stage adaptation of All the Beauty in the World was first produced as a special presentation at the 2024 Charleston Literary Festival, Charleston, South Carolina. All The Beauty In The World features scenic design by Dominic Dromgoole,  lighting design by Abigail Hoke-Brady (A Guide for the Homesick; The Last Supper), projection design by Austin Switser, (Paradise Interrupted; Emilie), and sound design by Caleb Garner (The 39 Steps; Cabaret).“As a museum guard, I stood quietly in corners and never dreamed I would take center stage,” said Patrick Bringley. “I'm touched by the public's embrace of my memoir — a story about art, an extraordinary workplace, and the fellowship I discovered in the wake of a loss. Performing it as a one-man play is fitting, given a guard’s solitary role. But what excites me most is getting to share moments of epiphany with an audience. After all, a theater, no less than a gallery, is a place for art. All The Beauty In The World plays DR2 Theatre (103 E. 15th Street).

The comedic horror story is told entirely in Mandarin with English supertitles using the framework of a traditional Chinese Zhongyuan “Hungry Ghost” Festival. Wang directs a cast of nine, including Junhong (Andrew) Fei, John Jiang, Fiona Wang, QQ Xing, Kejun Zhou, Destiny Gong, Luna Peng, Zicheng Elain Zhang, and Peter Xiao. Four performances will be staged Off Broadway at The Sam at The Flea Theater, 20 Thomas Street in NYC from April 25-27, 2025. Nine bodies. One haunted house. No escape. On the midnight of the Chinese Ghost Festival, nine influencers step into an infamous haunted house on East Mountain Island, hoping to exploit its bloody past for views. But when the clock strikes twelve, the signal cuts out, gas leaks, tapes rewind, and bodies collapse—only for their memory to reset, trapping them in an endless cycle of horror. A cursed calendar. A sunken boat. A missing gun. The spirits are waking, whispering of unfinished wills, and someone who never left. As the full moon fades, they have one last chance. Can they catch the echoes of the ashes and souls before everything is lost? “I write and direct Of Ashes and Souls because I was haunted. Not by ghosts, but by how easily we now accept fiction as fact, especially when it’s sensational or dark,” said Wang. “In a world flooded with viral narratives and algorithm-fed fears, I wanted to explore what it means to tell a story that resists cynicism. I believe today's theater-goers, especially younger audiences, are hungry for something that confronts the chaos of our media-saturated lives, but also dares to end with sincerity, with grace, and with hope.” Performances for Of Ashes of Souls are Friday at 8:00 p.m., Saturday at 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.; and Sunday at 2:00 p.m. General admission tickets are $32.00 (plus a $2.25 booking fee).

The runtime is 90 minutes with no intermission. “In many East Asian traditions, ghosts aren’t just meant to scare—they return because they’re grieving, unfinished, or still human in some way,” shared producer, co-writer and dramaturg Zihe Tian. “I am interested in that tension: how something can be funny, frightening, and deeply moving all at once. Of Ashes and Souls lives in that space between comedy and horror, young and traditional, between performance and ritual. It weaves modern absurdity—like internet fame and clickbait ethics—into the quiet persistence of ancestral stories. I hope audiences walk away not only unsettled, but strangely comforted.” ____________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

]]> 1239 no Ep 479- New Orleans Musician Steve Kelly Talks His New Album "Here's The Thing" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable After enduring a near-fatal car accident, natural disasters, heartbreak, and years of life’s ups and downs, New Orleans-based guitarist and vocalist Steve Kelly has channeled these experiences into his 8-track debut solo album, Here’s the Thing. Coined as “Alternative Soul,” Kelly’s songwriting navigates the complexities of life’s cycles, candid struggles with mental health and the perils and pitfalls of substance abuse and addiction, and the peaks and valleys of personal relationships, ultimately delivering a message of hope and perseverance. . Listen to Here's The Thing HERE.   In 2015, Kelly started working with Robert Mercurio and Ben Ellman of Galactic on a record with the band Gravy, of which Kelly was a founding member. With a new manager, new agent, and new record under their belts, the band was poised to take it to the next level when tragedy struck and Kelly was hit by a drunk driver on a Thursday afternoon. Kelly broke his pelvis, leg, ribs, nose, and ankle, spending a week in the hospital and over four months at home recovering. Upon recovering, he learned that their new agent had gone MIA, the manager didn’t have the bandwidth to uphold both his duties & booking, and the rest of the band was ready to pursue new directions in their lives. With the band fizzling out, his house being sold out from under him, and his girlfriend of 8 years leaving him for another man (on top of never showing up to the hospital), Kelly took that as a sign of the universe telling him it was time for a change.   He decided to do some soul searching and spent a little time traveling around Australia and Bali before returning to New Orleans in 2018, with a newfound directive for helping people. He started a company that essentially served as a digital Swiss Army knife for small businesses, with a focus on artist merchandising, e-commerce, and digital marketing. At this time he also began working as a talent buyer for a small but historic music venue in Uptown New Orleans, creating an incubator for emerging talent in the Crescent City. When the Covid pandemic hit in the spring of 2020, bars and music venues were forced to close, creating anxiety and terror for musicians as they scrambled trying to find other means of income. Having been through that type of uncertainty and pivoting before, Kelly was able to turn lemons into lemonade, taking the opportunity to set up recording sessions to flesh out some of his newly minted material with an all-star cast and providing a shot in the arm to the local music economy.   Each track on the album is a reflection of Kelly’s lived experiences above—raw, honest, and intimately crafted to speak of a relationship gone wrong mixed with both everyday and traumatic challenges. “How Are We Here Again” kicks the album off with a nod to 80s pop brilliance with influence pulled from Talking Heads, Prince, and Peter Gabriel. It’s a narrative of cyclical life challenges from a lens of Groundhog Day-like recurring events ultimately serving as a reminder that we’re all in the same boat at different points of our respective journeys. “Loretta” channels strength from vulnerability in a breakup anthem and an ode to discovering self-worth and empowerment.   Although not intentionally crafted as a concept album, Here’s The Thing, vividly depicts a relatable journey distilled through eight individual stories that recount the complexities of love; life’s trials and tribulations; and the empowerment to transform your own life fearlessly, no matter how many times you have to pivot—it’s a testament to the human experience.  ____________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

Listen to Here's The Thing HERE.   In 2015, Kelly started working with Robert Mercurio and Ben Ellman of Galactic on a record with the band Gravy, of which Kelly was a founding member. With a new manager, new agent, and new record under their belts, the band was poised to take it to the next level when tragedy struck and Kelly was hit by a drunk driver on a Thursday afternoon. Kelly broke his pelvis, leg, ribs, nose, and ankle, spending a week in the hospital and over four months at home recovering. Upon recovering, he learned that their new agent had gone MIA, the manager didn’t have the bandwidth to uphold both his duties & booking, and the rest of the band was ready to pursue new directions in their lives. With the band fizzling out, his house being sold out from under him, and his girlfriend of 8 years leaving him for another man (on top of never showing up to the hospital), Kelly took that as a sign of the universe telling him it was time for a change.   He decided to do some soul searching and spent a little time traveling around Australia and Bali before returning to New Orleans in 2018, with a newfound directive for helping people. He started a company that essentially served as a digital Swiss Army knife for small businesses, with a focus on artist merchandising, e-commerce, and digital marketing. At this time he also began working as a talent buyer for a small but historic music venue in Uptown New Orleans, creating an incubator for emerging talent in the Crescent City. When the Covid pandemic hit in the spring of 2020, bars and music venues were forced to close, creating anxiety and terror for musicians as they scrambled trying to find other means of income. Having been through that type of uncertainty and pivoting before, Kelly was able to turn lemons into lemonade, taking the opportunity to set up recording sessions to flesh out some of his newly minted material with an all-star cast and providing a shot in the arm to the local music economy.   Each track on the album is a reflection of Kelly’s lived experiences above—raw, honest, and intimately crafted to speak of a relationship gone wrong mixed with both everyday and traumatic challenges. “How Are We Here Again” kicks the album off with a nod to 80s pop brilliance with influence pulled from Talking Heads, Prince, and Peter Gabriel. It’s a narrative of cyclical life challenges from a lens of Groundhog Day-like recurring events ultimately serving as a reminder that we’re all in the same boat at different points of our respective journeys. “Loretta” channels strength from vulnerability in a breakup anthem and an ode to discovering self-worth and empowerment.   Although not intentionally crafted as a concept album, Here’s The Thing, vividly depicts a relatable journey distilled through eight individual stories that recount the complexities of love; life’s trials and tribulations; and the empowerment to transform your own life fearlessly, no matter how many times you have to pivot—it’s a testament to the human experience.  ____________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

This is an epic night that served an amazing cause! The event commemorated the unveiling of the historic venue’s renovation, completed by Tony Award winner and renowned architect and theater designer David Rockwell, and raised funds for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (BCEFA), one of the nation’s leading industry-based, nonprofit AIDS fundraising and grant-making organizations. BCEFA Executive Director Danny Whitman took the stage to announce the endowment of five discretionary grants to organizations working to serve the underprivileged in the immediate surrounding neighborhood.

In the theatre’s first 14 years, more than 1,500 one-act plays were performed at the theatre. When the venue was scheduled to close in August 2024 after financial difficulties following the COVID-19 pandemic, Tom D'Angora, Michael D'Angora, Tim Guinee, and Joe Iconis joined forces to raise nearly $1 million to save the café and theatre.

]]> 1475 no Ep 475- Jason Butler Harner Talks The New Film "The Big Bend!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Currently standing at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, THE BIG BEND is written and directed by Brett Wagner and stars Harner alongside Virginia Kull (BIG LITTLE LIES), David Sullivan (ARGO), and the late Erica Ash (OUTLAW JOHNNY BLACK). Two families meet for a long overdue reunion in the remote West Texas desert—where events quickly don’t go as planned. Harboring secrets and facing private crises, they explore one of the wildest places in America, testing the boundaries of marriage, friendship, and parenthood, and doing their best to survive the experience. We are excited to have the star with us for this chat! JASON BUTLER HARNER made his feature film debut in Clint Eastwood’s Oscar nominated CHANGELING (with Angelina Jolie). With a wide variety of roles and mediums, independent film has been a constant passion and priority. T HE BIG BEND is, without question, one of the most remarkable, shooting in the height of summer in the far-off-the-grid Big Bend of Texas, atop a cliff. Recent indies of note also include EDGE OF EVERYTHING (SBIFF Winner) and the Oscar shortlisted THE ANNE FRANK GIFT SHOP, in which he stars and co-produced.

Directed by acclaimed Off-Broadway artist Robert Galinsky (The Bench: A Homeless Love Story) and produced by award-winning producers Gina Rugolo Judd and Galinsky, He Said, She Says will play April 5, 7, 15, and 19 at wild project as part of 2025 New York City Fringe.    At age 63, after a lifetime of secrecy, Caragh Donley came out as transgender, choosing to embrace her true self with courage and candor. In He Said, She Says, Donley takes audiences on a journey that is both deeply personal and universally resonant, exploring themes of identity, transformation, and the resilience of the human spirit through her extraordinary life story. Donley’s Spalding Gray-esque storytelling style, infused with humor and vulnerability, challenges societal perceptions of gender while offering a profound reminder: it is never too late to embrace who you truly are.    He Said, She Says stands as a testament to the transformative power of live theater, inviting viewers to engage with the world through a lens of empathy and understanding while bridging divides and fostering a deeper connection to a shared humanity.   Caragh shared her journey of coming out as transgender on the“The Kelly Clarkson Show” where she explained how a conversation with Sharon Stone about living authentically became the catalyst for her decision to transition. During the pandemic, with time to reflect on her life, Caragh was inspired by Stone's words to commit to her truth. The supportive environment fostered by Kelly Clarkson and the show gave Caragh the courage to finally step into her authentic self. With more than 20 years of experience in journalism and television, Caragh has written for The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, People, Vanity Fair, The Hollywood Reporter, Boston Globe, TV Guide, and Emmy Magazine. Her colorful career includes sharing bologna sandwiches with an O.J. Simpson juror's family, scaling a 250-foot Brazilian church tower, and drinking with Jon Bon Jovi on a Utah mountaintop—all in pursuit of great stories.   As a senior producer for “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” Caragh has been recognized with four Emmy Awards.

]]> 1249 no Ep 467- Director/Writer Tom Stuart Talks "Good Boy!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We love creatives and writers! We have an amazing tale for you today! Director Tom Stuart’s hotly anticipated quirky short ‘GOOD BOY’ takes you on the lighthearted journey of a desperate young man (Ben Whishaw) as he drives his battered VW van with his mother (Marion Bailey) in the back, a dead pigeon in the passenger seat, and a growing sense of desperation. Inspired by a personal experience of grief, this fabulous short is screening to be nominated for a 2024 Academy® Award.   Danny's attempt to rob a bank with his overbearing mum is scuppered by the appearance of their family doctor. As he desperately seeks a way forward, Danny finds himself confronted by bizarre manifestations from his past, and we start to sense that everything is not as it seems… ‘GOOD BOY’ is the directorial-debut of Tom Stuart, co-writer of 'MAINSTREAM’ which premiered at the 77th Venice Film Festival in 2020.

]]> 934 Ep 460- "Casualty Of War" Starring Sharon Lesser Comes To The United Solo Fest! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable United Solo Festival presents Casualty of War, the story of a mother’s sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking trip to Normandy’s D-Day beaches with her unwilling teenage son, written and performed by Sharon Lesser* (Off Broadway: In the Daylight, Twelfth Night, Tartuffe). With direction by Austin Tooley and dramaturgy by Anisa Rose Threlkeld, Casualty of War will be staged at the United Solo Festival on Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 7:00 p.m and Tuesday, April 15, 2025, at 8:30 p.m. at Theatre One at Theatre Row, 410 West 42nd Street in NYC.  Sharon’s got a perfect itinerary planned: A mother-son tour of Normandy and Omaha Beach, with some road tripping, great French food and a visit to Paris. What she gets is a journey with a sullen, heart-broken adolescent whose own emotional D-Day turns him into a hostile adversary pining for home. There’s a war brewing and it’s not between the Germans and the Allies. While trying to make the best of things by attempting to outmaneuver her son’s everchanging moods (i.e., being a mom), she’s surprised by how the WW2 history they encounter invokes memories of antisemitism and the impact the Holocaust had on her family. Casualty of War explores the timeless themes of motherhood, intergenerational trauma and identity. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll crave rosé. The runtime is 68 minutes with no intermission. General admission tickets are $52.50, which includes a $5.00 service charge.

]]> 1755 no Ep 459- Jazz Superstar Jose James Talks His New Album, Single, & Tour! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Described by The New York Times as "the result of the black-pop continuum, slow-cooked for more than 50 years," José James has built a career blending jazz, soul, hip-hop, and R&B into a contagious mix of music for "party and politics."  On May 16th, he’ll release his most ambitious album yet, 1978: Revenge Of The Dragon—a bold, genre-bending project shaped by his deep study of Kung Fu and QiGong and inspired by the cultural landscape of his 1978 birth year. Recorded live to tape in one take at Dreamland Studios, the album channels the grit of ’70s underground culture and the raw spirit of downtown NYC's Mudd Club, weaving original compositions with reimagined classics by The Rolling Stones and Michael Jackson! 1978: Revenge Of The Dragon dives into the cultural heartbeat of 1978, celebrating the era's two biggest obsessions: disco and kung fu cinema. Inspired by the double-feature screenings that brought Black audiences together to find heroes and express complex emotions, José taps into the spirit of Bruce Lee and the golden age of blaxploitation and martial arts films. The album isn't just a musical statement—it's a love letter to the cultural crosscurrents that shaped a generation, blending the improvisational spark of jazz with the cinematic flair of kung fu's power and discipline. It will also be packaged with a brand-new kung fu short film directed by José and starring him and his bandmates. José conceived the album while living in Pasadena, drawing inspiration from the city’s vibrant cultural landscape. This project marks a new creative peak for José – not just musically, but personally. With his signature silky-yet-commanding voice, José brings a sense of discipline and explosive energy to the record, reflecting how martial arts philosophy has transformed his artistry. From his early days on Blue Note to his independent journey with Rainbow Blonde Records, José has continually redefined the boundaries of modern jazz and soul. José just released his 2nd single off the album, “Rock With You (feat. Takuya Kuroda)!” Trust me, this is a must listen! Grab tickets to a show, stream the music, and get ready for THE DRAGON!

About The Film: The year is 1307 and the Holy Roman Empire is in turmoil. As its grip on Europe loosens,emerging dynasties such as the Austrian Habsburg Family encroach on new lands, desperate for power.In Switzerland, the once peaceful country is overwhelmed and bows under the Austrian might,as it advances and upends the quiet lives of the Swiss peasants. When a local huntsman, William Tell, sees an innocent farmer begging for help after murdering a cruel Austrian governor, he reluctantly agrees to guide him to a safe location. But in carrying out this act, Tell meets more comrades from the Swiss resistance along the way, and is inevitably drawn into the fight against the invaders. After constantly attempting to dissuade his peers from war, Tell is drawn further into the madness when he publicly refuses to bend the knee to the Austrian authority. As a punishment,the pernicious Austrian Viceroy Gessler orders him to test his skill bys hooting an apple from his son’s head. Tell knows that once his family has been threatened, there is no turning back. The world-famous legend of the inspiring crossbow-warrior is turned into a big budget epic by BAFTA-award winner Nick Hamm, starring a top-notch international cast led by Claes Bang,Golshifteh Farahani,Connor Swindells,Jonah Hauer-King, Ellie Bamber, Rafe Spall, Emily Beecham, Jonathan Pryce and Ben Kingsley.

]]> 1573 Ep 456- Tony Nominee Melissa Errico Talks "The Story Of A Rose!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Tony Award®-nominated Broadway actress, singer and author Melissa Errico (My Fair Lady, Dracula, Les Misérables) will take the stage at the Rachel M. Schlesinger Concert Hall and Arts Center (located on NOVA's Alexandria Campus) on May 7, with her mesmerizing new musical presentation, The Story of a Rose: A Musical Reverie on The Great War - tickets on sale here. In a unique mix of beautiful song and brilliant speech, Melissa relates the story of the too-often-overlooked epoch of World War One, in all its many-sided American complexity, in an original musical presentation produced by The Doughboy Foundation to benefit its work in support of America’s National World War I Memorial in Washington, D.C. The show is also presented by the Gary Sinise Foundation, which was established by Actor and Humanitarian Gary Sinise to honor our nation’s defenders, veterans, first responders, and their families by creating and supporting unique programs designed to entertain, educate, inspire and support these heroes.   A sparkling, orchestral one-woman concert with evocative visuals, ravishing period costumes, and an all-star jazz ensemble, “The Story of a Rose” is both stylish entertainment and a deep reflection on a war we must not forget. As ever, Melissa’s touch will be intelligent and sensual, as she narrates her subject with the deep resonance of a mother of three teenagers, the same age today as the soldiers whose lives she sings.   From the arrival of Italian and Jewish immigrants before the war to the birth of distinctly American song during it, from the flight from Europe in the “oughts” of the twentieth century to the return of American soldiers to Europe in the teens -- from the nascent glories of Irving Berlin and Jerome Kern to the great Harlem Hellfighters and their introduction of American jazz to France right on the battlefields of the Western Front – every face of the Great War, the people who lived through it, and, above all, the music that they sang, will come alive. Using her own great Aunt Rose as her avatar and the Ziegfeld Follies that Rose starred in as a frame, Melissa recreates the songs and hopes and loves of the people of the time.   Under the musical direction of the great jazz pianist Tedd Firth (Marilyn Maye, Bernadette Peters, Michael Feinstein) and his big-band period ensemble, Melissa will share wartime tunes of patriotism and protest, loss and longing, from “Oh, How I Hate To Get Up In The Morning!” to “I Didn’t Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier,” “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” to a soaring “They Didn’t Believe Me,” all ending in a rousing chorus of “God Bless America” – a song Berlin wrote for the First World War. Acclaimed Broadway actor/musician George Abud (Lempicka, The Untitled Unauthorized Hunter S. Thompson Musical, The Band’s Visit) assists in a variety of onstage roles.   Throughout, Melissa tells us the story of her Rose, her aunt — a story of a family legend, by turns mischievous and melancholy, which becomes the story of a lost time. “Music,” she declares affirmatively, “is the one force that can connect our private memories to our common history. Every time we sing their songs; the people of a lost time live again.” “The Story of a Rose” will make the stage ring with history, and with hope. _______________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

]]> 2147 no Ep 455- Activist, Author, Theatre Legend David Rothenberg Talks His New Book! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Manhattan Mayhem is the new book from legendary activist and author David Rothenberg. Manhattan Mayhem will be officially released April 2. Manhattan Mayhem is a must-read for anyone who loves New York, or anyone who has got the rhythm of New York coursing through their veins. A mensch with a big mouth, a big heart, and big ideas, Rothenberg’s 18 stories capture the mood and heartbeat of the planet's most pulsating plot of land. With heartbreak, humor and hope, Rothenberg shares personal urban fables reflecting on friendships, faith, family and fortune. MORE ABOUT DAVID ROTHENBERG... David Rothenberg‘s multilayered life has thrust him into Broadway‘s brightest lights, prison riots, political campaigns, civil rights sit-ins, and a Central American Civil War. After reading the script for Fortune and Men’s Eyes by former prisoner and playwright John Herbert, he was instrumental in producing the play in New York. He started The Fortune Society on the stage after a performance. Moved by the performance, 16 audience members contributed $2 each, Rothenberg opened a bank account for $32, and The Fortune Society was born. 58 years later, The Fortune Society has a staff of 600 people and six residences for formerly incarcerated men and women. Unique in the history of the American Theatre, this was a social change movement with national implications that penetrated through the proscenium arch. Later, he was a civilian observer during the Attica Prison riot, which left a deep impression on him and spurred his lifelong activism for prisoner's rights. This inspired him to found the Fortune Society in 1967, now one of the nation’s leading advocacy and service organizations in criminal justice. As a theatre publicity agent, he represented some of the most heralded and successful productions in the second half of the 20th century including Richard Burton‘s Hamlet; the original production of Hair; Beyond The Fringe; Sir John Gielgud’s production of The School for Scandal; Tennessee Williams’ Night Of The Iguana and Slapstick Tragedy; Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party; and several plays by Edward Albee including Everything In The Garden, Box Mao Box, Sandbox, Death of Bessie Smith and The American Dream; Blue Man Group; Tony and Tina’s Wedding; An Evening with Maurice Chevalier; and nearly 200 other productions. Rothenberg’s one-man show Namedropping was first presented off-Broadway in 2003 and is still performed in the New York City area. As a social activist, he was appointed to the NYC Commission of Human Rights. He also served on several special state and city commissions in New York City, including a Governor’s Advisory Committee on Criminal Justice, a Mayor’s Task Force on Child Abuse, and the American Bar Association Commission on Correction. He has testified before numerous government committees, including several in Washington DC, before Senate and House Committees, and before State Legislative Committees around the nation.  His book "Manhattan Mayhem" will be available on Amazon or wherever books are sold. _______________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Manhattan Mayhem is the new book from legendary activist and author David Rothenberg. Manhattan Mayhem will be officially released April 2. Manhattan Mayhem is a must-read for anyone who loves New York, or anyone who has got the rhythm of New York coursing through their veins. A mensch with a big mouth, a big heart, and big ideas, Rothenberg’s 18 stories capture the mood and heartbeat of the planet's most pulsating plot of land. With heartbreak, humor and hope, Rothenberg shares personal urban fables reflecting on friendships, faith, family and fortune. 

MORE ABOUT DAVID ROTHENBERG...

David Rothenberg‘s multilayered life has thrust him into Broadway‘s brightest lights, prison riots, political campaigns, civil rights sit-ins, and a Central American Civil War. After reading the script for Fortune and Men’s Eyes by former prisoner and playwright John Herbert, he was instrumental in producing the play in New York. He started The Fortune Society on the stage after a performance. Moved by the performance, 16 audience members contributed $2 each, Rothenberg opened a bank account for $32, and The Fortune Society was born. 58 years later, The Fortune Society has a staff of 600 people and six residences for formerly incarcerated men and women. Unique in the history of the American Theatre, this was a social change movement with national implications that penetrated through the proscenium arch. Later, he was a civilian observer during the Attica Prison riot, which left a deep impression on him and spurred his lifelong activism for prisoner's rights. This inspired him to found the Fortune Society in 1967, now one of the nation’s leading advocacy and service organizations in criminal justice. As a theatre publicity agent, he represented some of the most heralded and successful productions in the second half of the 20th century including Richard Burton‘s Hamlet; the original production of Hair; Beyond The Fringe; Sir John Gielgud’s production of The School for Scandal; Tennessee Williams’ Night Of The Iguana and Slapstick Tragedy; Harold Pinter’s The Birthday Party; and several plays by Edward Albee including Everything In The Garden, Box Mao Box, Sandbox, Death of Bessie Smith and The American Dream; Blue Man Group; Tony and Tina’s Wedding; An Evening with Maurice Chevalier; and nearly 200 other productions. Rothenberg’s one-man show Namedropping was first presented off-Broadway in 2003 and is still performed in the New York City area. As a social activist, he was appointed to the NYC Commission of Human Rights. He also served on several special state and city commissions in New York City, including a Governor’s Advisory Committee on Criminal Justice, a Mayor’s Task Force on Child Abuse, and the American Bar Association Commission on Correction. He has testified before numerous government committees, including several in Washington DC, before Senate and House Committees, and before State Legislative Committees around the nation.  His book "Manhattan Mayhem" will be available on Amazon or wherever books are sold.

Slamdance Film Festival 2025 will take place from February 20th – 26th with in-person screenings at the Director's Guild of America (DGA) and at the Quixote West Hollywood Studios, and will be available virtually on slamdancechannel.com from February 24th – March 7th. In-person world premiere on Saturday, February 22nd at 6:15pm at the Panasonic LUMIX Theatre in Quixote Studios West. **Full reviews embargoed until after World Premiere** Frustrated by what she was hearing on commercial radio in the ‘90s, a young woman builds a station from scratch and broadcasts from her Los Angeles apartment. “40 Watts from Nowhere” is a captivating documentary about Los Angeles pirate radio station KBLT and the 1990s low-power FM movement in the U.S. It’s based around fascinating vintage footage shot in 1998 that shows KBLT operating 24/7 out of an apartment closet in Silver Lake with DJs running the gamut from Keith Morris (Circle Jerks), Mike Watt (Minutemen) and Don Bolles (Germs) to garden-variety music fans playing everything from jungle and punk to vintage country and French pop. Sue Carpenter started the 40-watt FM station in 1995, exploiting a legal case that allowed hundreds of low-power illegal radio operators to proliferate throughout the country and gave birth to the legal LPFM movement. Carpenter was 28 years old, a secretary and an aspiring journalist when she first set up KBLT and invited strangers into her house to spin whatever the hell they wanted. It soon took on a life of its own, drawing Mazzy Star to headline a benefit concert and the Red Hot Chili Peppers to play live in her living room. The vintage footage captures the arc of the story, from its full-tilt heyday in the summer of 1998 to its FCC shutdown later that year. Shot by a DJ who intended to make a documentary but never did, the vintage footage is rounded out with interviews Carpenter conducted in 2023, including Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, Minutemen bassist Mike Watt, Germs drummer Don Bolles and pirate radio activist Stephen Dunifer.

She is a 2021 finalist for the Jonathan Larson Grant. How funny that she know tells his legacy and sings his songs in "The Jonathan Larson Project" now playing in NYC! Lauren has been on Broadway. She has acted in TV and films! As a singer-songwriter, Lauren released her debut EP, Never Really Done With You and has had sold out runs around NYC! She has worked with her husband Joe Iconis on Love Letters and other amazing projects! About The Show: When Jonathan Larson died unexpectedly at the age of 35, it was hours before his musical RENT took the world by storm. Larson was hailed posthumously as the voice of a generation, winning Tony Awards® and the Pulitzer Prize, and achieving his life-long dream of changing Broadway forever… although he tragically wasn’t there to see it. In his apartment, he left behind hundreds of cassette tapes, scripts, music files, journals – boxes of his writing from shows that were never produced and projects that were never seen… until now. The Jonathan Larson Project brings to the stage the extraordinary unheard songs of the writer who revolutionized Broadway. This powerful new musical asks how we can make a difference in the world today, with Larson’s voice reaching through time to inspire audiences. From presidential elections to environmental activism to creating and connecting despite every obstacle, Larson’s songs speak to our present time with stunning resonance. At the same time, The Jonathan Larson Project reflects the journey of an unknown young artist, struggling against rejection, making ends meet as a waiter in a diner, and finding his voice… which he has no idea will someday lead to triumph and enduring fame. The show includes cut songs from RENT and tick, tick… BOOM! as well as songs that have never been performed in a theater before.

]]> 1606 no Ep 443- Kim David Smith Talks Marlene, Kylie, & Liza! Oh My! New Music Alert! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable KIM DAVID SMITH, the provocative international singer and actor, will release the new album Mostly Marlene in digital and streaming platforms on Friday, March 21. The entrancing and wryly humorous entertainer – hailed as “slyly subversive” by The Wall Street Journal, “a male Marlene Dietrich” by The New York Times, and the “David Bowie of cabaret” by BroadwayWorld – was nominated for the Helpmann Award, Australia’s highest honor for the performing arts. Smith will celebrate the album’s release with a special New York concert at Joe’s Pubon Friday, March 21 at 9:30 PM. Tickets are available HERE. Customers who pre-order the digital album will immediately receive a download of the first single, a powerful German-language version of John Kander and Fred Ebb’s “Cabaret.” Pre-order the album on Apple Music HERE.   Mostly Marlene, recorded live at the New York hotspot Joe’s Pub, features guest vocalists: pop wunderkind Bright Light Bright Light and New York cabaret legend Sidney Myer. In addition to the concert, the 21-track album also features bonus studio duets with Tony-nominated playwright and performer Charles Busch, downtown luminary Joey Arias, Australian opera star Ali McGregor, and Smith’s own darling mother Linda Randall. The album and upcoming concert feature music director Tracy Stark on piano, in addition to Matt Podd on accordion, Skip Ward on bass, and David Silliman on drums.   The recording celebrates the music associated with Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992), the German/American actress, singer, fashion icon, and provocateur. With a focus on Marlene’s collaborations with Weimar-era composer Friedrich Hollaender, the program sees Smith’s queer mega-muses – Minnelli, Minogue, Madonna, and more – collide with Dietrich’s reimagined repertoire in luxurious musical rearrangements, traveling from Weimar Berlin, to Hollywood, through to the battlefields of Europe, and beyond.   The album features selections performed by Dietrich in her iconic film career such as “Falling in Love Again” (The Blue Angel, 1930), “The Boys in the Back Room” (Destry Rides Again, 1939), “Black Market” (A Foreign Affair, 1948), and “Just a Gigolo” (Just a Gigolo, 1978), in addition to songs she performed in concert and recorded in the studio. The album also includes Smith’s performance of Kylie Minogue’s “Padam Padam” – in an original French translation by cabarettist Gay Marshall – and his barn-storming all-German rendition of Kander & Ebb’s “Cabaret.”   Mostly Marlene debuted at Club Cumming in New York City’s East Village and toured to the 2021 Adelaide Cabaret Festival, and the Post Office Café in Provincetown, while frequently returning to New York at Club Cumming (2021-2023), Pangea, and Café Sabarsky at the Neue Galerie.    _______________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

Not I – “Practically speechless.... all her days.”

A non-verbal woman, who was abandoned by her parents at birth and lives an uneventful life until the age of 70, suddenly hears voices and realizes it’s herself speaking.

Not I features Sarah Street (Molly Sweeney).


Play – “We were not long together when she smelt a rat.”

Eternally together in the afterlife and locked in their urns, a man, his wife, and his mistress relay the sordid

details of their love triangle.

Play features Roger Dominic Casey (Aristocrats), Kate Forbes (A Touch of the Poet), and Sarah Street.


Krapp’s Last Tape – “Perhaps my best years are gone...But I wouldn’t want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn’t want them back”

Krapp, an aged man, reviews his life with the assistance of his younger self heard on autobiographical tape recordings.

Krapp’s Last Tape features Academy Award winner F. Murray Abraham (Amadeus).


This ia a great chat with a great actor at a great theatre company!

]]> 1486 no Ep 423- The Minds Behind "Reefer Madness"- Dan Studney & Kevin Murphy Are Here! A cult classic is the strain of the day! Creators & Writers Dan Studney & Kevin Murphy are here to tell us all about Reefer Madness! Reefer Madness: New Los Angeles Cast Recording, featuring the full cast from its critically acclaimed 25th Anniversary Los Angeles revival, is available today!. The CD edition feature two bonus tracks – “Kindergarten Teacher” and “Cautionary Tale,” both cut from the show – that are not on the digital version. The CD features a 30-page booklet with color production photography, complete lyrics, a synopsis, and liner notes from Angelina Jolie and the show’s producer Kristen Bell. A vinyl edition will be released late spring. Fans can get links to stream or download the album, or order the CD, at https://soulspazm.ffm.to/rmnlacr   With music by Dan Studney and lyrics by Kevin Murphy, the album brings the irreverent humor and raw energy of the stage production directly to your playlist. This revival, directed and choreographed by Spencer Liff, and substantially revised from the original, has garnered rave reviews for its innovative approach and infectious performances. The album is produced by Michael Croiter, Kevin Murphy, and Dan Studney, with the production’s music director David Lamoureux serving as co-producer.   Reefer Madness: New Los Angeles Cast Recording showcases the vibrant, immersive energy of the Los Angeles production, which has captivated audiences since its debut at the historic Hollywood venue, The Whitley. Fans can look forward to hearing the electrifying performances of the talented cast, including Nicole Parker as Mae Coleman, alongside Thomas Dekker as Ralph Wiley, Anthony Norman as Jimmy Harper, Darcy Rose Byrnes as Mary Lane, J. Elaine Marcos as Sally De Bain, Bryan Daniel Porter as Lecturer/Jack/Jesus, and many more.   The album captures the essence of this uproarious musical comedy, which has been a cultural touchstone since it first exploded onto the Los Angeles stage in the late 1990s. The show, inspired by the 1936 exploitation film Reefer Madness, takes a satirical and wildly fun look at the dangers of marijuana, with its bold music, hilarious lyrics, and unforgettable characters.   The first three tracks being released are “Reefer Madness,” the iconic opening number that sets the tone for the raucous ride ahead; “The Stuff,” a haunting, yet comedic ballad, performed by Nicole Parker as Mae Coleman; and “Mary Jane/Mary Lane,” sung with zest by Anthony Norman and Darcy Rose Byrnes.”   Reefer Madness The Musical premiered in 1999, winning multiple Ovation, Garland, and L.A. Drama Critics Circle awards.

Abubakr Ali Tells Us About DAKAR 2000! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Up-and-comer Abubakr Ali, who stars in the world premiere of Manhattan Theatre Club’s Dakar 2000, by Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph joins us on The Roundtable today! He is the next big thing! Just you wait! Dakar 2000 is now playing performances Off-Broadway at New York City Center Stage I. Abubakr is blazing a trail as an Egyptian-born leading man. Since receiving his MFA from the prestigious Yale School of Drama (amongst the likes of Louisa Jacobson and Jeremy O. Harris), he’s starred in Billy Porter’s Anything’s Possible and was the titular role in Netflix’s series, “Grendel,” where he became the first Arab Muslim to lead a comic book adaptation. He’s racked up a number of theatre credits, as well, hitting all of New York’s Off-Broadway stalwarts, from Atlantic Theatre Company to The Public. Whether a love-interest, an action star, or comic relief, Abubakr is a charismatic and arresting performer.   Dakar 2000 is a serpentine amalgam of espionage, memory play, and romance. Set in Senegal on the eve of Y2K, the play follows the relationship between Boubs (Ali), a young Peace Corps volunteer, and Dina (Mia Barron), an enigmatic State Department operative, as they negotiate what could be the start of a computer-based apocalypse. Abubakr proves himself incredibly agile, flipping seamlessly between humor, tenderness, and tension. In this high-stakes game of cat and mouse, Abubakr is a worthy adversary.

The entertainment world is on the brink of a transformation with the launch of Je’Caryous Johnson Studios (JJS), a visionary 360-degree entertainment powerhouse created by acclaimed writer, director, promoter, and producer Je’Caryous Johnson.

 

At the helm of this historic venture is the visionary Johnson, a prolific producer and promoter whose live productions have drawn over 3 million fans to a Je’Caryous Johnson experience, and reshaped cultural conversations. Known for critically acclaimed works like Married But Single, Redemption of a Dogg (starring Snoop Dogg), Set It Off Live, and New Jack City Live, Johnson has solidified his reputation as a creative titan with an unparalleled ability to connect with audiences.

 

JJS wants to be an incubation hub for talent and will offer artists an unparalleled opportunity to become part of a groundbreaking multi-vertical approach to building their personal empire. By signing a comprehensive multi-vertical deal with the company, artists will unlock the chance to showcase their talents across a diverse range of platforms. This includes starring in films, captivating audiences through podcasts, commanding the stage in theater and live performances, and much more. JJS’ innovative model empowers artists to expand their reach, amplify their voice, and cultivate a legacy that spans multiple creative domains all under one cohesive and visionary partnership.

 

On the narrative feature side, JJS plans to produce, finance and develop a slate of high-concept projects, with production slated to begin on the first film, THE PARALEGAL, in late March. The studio’s bold lineup will underscore its commitment to pushing creative boundaries while staying rooted in authentic Black storytelling. THE PARALEGAL is written and will be directed by Je’Caryous F. Johnson marking his feature film debut. The film follows a lawyer who finds himself being blackmailed by a deranged paralegal determined to take everything he has—except his wife.

 

To commemorate the launch of Je’Caryous Johnson Studios, the company will debut its newest live production, Jason’s Lyric Live, in February 2025. Adapted from Bobby Smith, Jr.’s iconic screenplay, this 22-city national tour reintroduces the powerful, poetic love story to a new generation of theatergoers.

 

Featuring an all-star cast including Allen Payne, Treach, Eva Marcille, K. Michelle, Tyrin Turner, Lawrence Hilton Jacobs, and Victoria Rowell, Jason’s Lyric Live promises to deliver an unforgettable experience, blending the raw emotion of the film with the immersive magic of live theater.

 

About Je’Caryous Johnson:

 Je’Caryous Johnson is a creative trailblazer whose live productions have captivated millions of fans and redefined the American stage. From Married But Single to Set It Off Live and beyond, Johnson’s works have consistently blended humor, heart, and cultural relevance. His commitment to honoring Black stories has made him a revered cultural leader, and his latest venture, Je’Caryous Johnson Studios, cements his legacy as a premiere entertainment icon.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" Well the Gospel Royalty who made the run, riff, and song is here to tell her powerful story! Vocalist, songwriter, and worship leader Lisa Page Brooks is a soulful performer with a powerful alto who first came to the public's attention as a member of the Grammy- and Stellar Award-nominated gospel ensemble Witness. After leaving the group in the late '90s, she enjoyed a successful solo career, issuing the Billboard-charting efforts  for years! A native of Detroit, Brooks was born into a musical family, the daughter of Charles Warren Harris, member of the legendary Motown group the Monitors. Growing up, Brooks and her sister Laeh gained early performance experience singing locally as the gospel vocal duo the Voices of Eden. In 1986, an invitation to sit in on a practice with Witness, then a newly formed vocal ensemble, led to Brooks joining the contemporary gospel quartet. Formed by producer/songwriter Michael Brooks as a sister project to his all-male gospel group Commissioned, Witness soon became a showcase for Brooks, who steadily gained wider and wider popularity due to her throaty yet resonant vocals on such hits as "Safety," "Clap Your Hands," "Resting in Him," and "Standard." Also during this time, Witness garnered several industry accolades, including a 1991 Grammy nomination for Best Group/Duo, a 1991 GMWA Excellence Award for Best Group, and a 1993 Stellar Award for Best Performance Group/Duo. Lisa and Michael ultimately married, and in 1997 they launched her solo career with the release of her critically acclaimed debut album, More Than You'll Ever Know. Produced by Michael, the record received widespread praise, drawing nominations for Best New Artist at both the 1997 Dove Awards and the 1997 Stellar Awards. Four years later, Brooks delivered her sophomore LP, the eponymous Lisa Page Brooks, which once again featured production from her husband. In 2009, Brooks returned with her third studio album, Strong, which included the number one Billboard Hot Gospel Song "I Just Want to Say Thank You." The compilation album Hidden Treasures: The Best of Lisa Page Brooks appeared two years later. In 2013, she released her fourth effort, Ready, which included the single "God Thing," and featured production from her son Justin Brooks, and vocal arrangements from her daughter, vocalist Tasha Lockhart. The ensuing years saw Lisa and Michael focus on their ministry at Restoration Fellowship Church International in Detroit.. Lisa went viral with the emotional single "The Grateful Chant," a spontaneous moment of grief and healing captured during a service that went on to garner streams and views in the millions!

]]> 1582 no Ep 393- Author Heather Christie Is Here Talking "Love Notes!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable LoveNotes! – the storytelling event created and hosted by author Heather Christie, based on her popular book of the same name – will be performed for three special Valentine’s Day weekend shows on Saturday, February 15 at New York’s Leonard Nimoy Thalia at Peter Norton Symphony Space (250 West 95th Street, NYC 10025) for its second annual engagement. Shows will be at 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM, and 8:00 PM. In addition, the 8:00 PM show will be available as a livestream. Leading up to the New York shows, there will also be LoveNotes! presentations in Indianapolis, IN (January 31, Ticket Link) and Chicago, IL (February 1, Ticket Link). Tickets to the New York shows are available HERE.   Just in time for Valentine’s Day weekend, LoveNotes! is a one-of-a-kind storytelling event of memoir and music, in which real people share real stories about romantic love in all of its incarnations. The show reveals true stories of first love, last love, and all the love in between – tales from heartbreaking to heartwarming – in which Cupid has shot someone in the heart… and they have lived to tell the tale.   Storytellers for the New York performances include Shreya Ambatti, Bella Bader, Wanda Colón, Tony Crocamo, Kristina Kelley, Ronna Levy, Sergio Lockhart, Brian Lorio, Sandi Marx, Franklin Matthews, Phillip Palladino, Rita Plush, Holly Rutchik, Xuan Zhao, with music by Glen Roethal.   LoveNotes! debuted last year with a sold-out show Off-Broadway and has expanded to three performances this year. The book LoveNotes! – which is published by 71st Street Books, and available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and beyond – features true love stories, journal prompts, and puzzles. The LoveNotes! podcast will be launched later this year.   After a divorce and dating disappointment, Heather Christie found herself in a dark place, questioning whether love was real. Even so, there was a nudge from deep inside that urged her to look around and find the proof of what real love looked like. So she went on the search for evidence of love in other people’s stories. The poets, the dreamers, the lovers, and a lot of regular people answered her call. LoveNotes! was born.   ------------------------------------------------------   Heather Christie, the creator of LoveNotes!, is the award-winning author of the Young Adult novel, What the Valley Knows, and the producer/director of the storytelling shows “Listen to Your Mother NYC” in addition to the LoveNotes! shows, books, and podcast.

She already has a big ole hit on her hands starring in "Autumn & The Black Jaguar!" AUTUMN AND THE BLACK JAGUAR has already grossed over $20 million dollars worldwide following its release in global territories like France, Germany, and New Zealand.   AUTUMN AND THE BLACK JAGUAR follows Autumn (Pollak) who, having spent her early childhood in the Amazon rainforest, formed a friendship with a jaguar cub she named Hope. Now a teenager in New York City, she learns her childhood village in the Amazon is under threat from animal traffickers, so she decides she must return to the Amazon to save her beloved jaguar. Anja (Bett Rickards), her endearingly clumsy biology teacher, learns of her plan and attempts to dissuade her, but ends up joining her on her journey to reunite with Hope and save her from those who seek to destroy the rainforest and its wildlife.   In making the film, the filmmakers used real jaguars to play Hope. The jaguars were rescued from wild animal breeders, taken care of by on-set animal coordinators, and now live in an animal sanctuary. Before filming began, both Lumi Pollak and Airam Camacho, who plays Young Autumn, spent about a year playing and imprinting with the two jaguars to build the bond you see between Hope and Autumn in the film.   Director Gilles de Maistre sees this as a film that can speak to children all over the world and shine a light on the issues of animal trafficking and deforestation in the Amazon. In the film, Autumn is only a teenager, but de Maistre believes this story can inspire other young people and spark real change. Hear how she worked with the animals, shot the film, and what it was like on set!

Anja (Bett Rickards), her endearingly clumsy biology teacher, learns of her plan and attempts to dissuade her, but ends up joining her on her journey to reunite with Hope and save her from those who seek to destroy the rainforest and its wildlife.

 

In making the film, the filmmakers used real jaguars to play Hope. The jaguars were rescued from wild animal breeders, taken care of by on-set animal coordinators, and now live in an animal sanctuary. Before filming began, both Lumi Pollak and Airam Camacho, who plays Young Autumn, spent about a year playing and imprinting with the two jaguars to build the bond you see between Hope and Autumn in the film.

 

Director Gilles de Maistre sees this as a film that can speak to children all over the world and shine a light on the issues of animal trafficking and deforestation in the Amazon. In the film, Autumn is only a teenager, but de Maistre believes this story can inspire other young people and spark real change.


Hear how she worked with the animals, shot the film, and what it was like on set! Then go see "AUTUMN & THE BLACK JAGUAR" in theatres near you!

]]> 1203 no Ep 379- Cabaret Superstar Ari Axelrod Talks His New Album & Concert At 54 Below! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We have the one & only award-winning musical storyteller Ari Axelrod here! His new album A Place for Us: A Celebration of Jewish Broadway will be available on CD and digital formats on Friday, January 17, 2025. Featuring a 13-piece orchestra arranged and conducted by Mike Stapleton, with additional arrangements by Larry Yurman, A Place for Us tells an unforgettable story of a community’s survival built on courage and the yearning for “peace and quiet and open air… somewhere.” Axelrod will celebrate the album release with a special concert at New York’s 54 Below on Saturday, January 18 at 7:00 PM. Tickets are available HERE. The album is produced by Tommy Krasker and Bart Migal, with Ron Thomas serving as executive producer.    The Broadway musical as we know it would not exist without the generations of Jewish songwriters who brought not only their talent but their heritage and perspective to their art. With A Place for Us, Axelrod has gathered a collection of this cherished work through which he finds healing and a sense of home and community, echoing the refuge generations of Jews have sought in the American theater. This new album adapts and expands upon the one-man show he’s performed to raves across the country (called “genuinely one of the finest shows I’ve ever seen” by BroadwayWorld), building on his deep connection to this material and his own Jewish heritage.    Weaving together a century of songs from the likes of Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Stephen Sondheim, Mary Rodgers, Jason Robert Brown, Adam Guettel and many others – including Cole Porter, a gentile who said the key to hit songs lay in writing “Jewish tunes” – Axelrod creates a stunning tapestry of the Jewish American experience, from immigration and assimilation to activism, faith and family, revealing in exquisite detail how Jewish liturgy and culture were transformed into a popular music beloved by all.  For Tickets: www.54Below.org __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!

]]> 1297 no Ep 377- Cliff Beach Plays The Funk, Talks His New Album, His Radio Show, Book, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable For over 15 years, Cliff Beach has been a cornerstone of the Los Angeles music scene earning a reputation for vibrant live performances; high volume of musically eclectic releases; and having a second-to-none hustle that uplifts every collaborator in his orbit. Following an early 2024 jazz release entitled You Showed Me The Way, Beach pivots back to his high-voltage funk roots with his brand new album Beach Please. Beach Please’s 11-tracks (10 originals and one cover of Michael Jackson’s 80s hit “The Way You Make Me Feel”) are structured as a 3-part suite, each exploring a different element of love, heartbreak, and redemption. Suite One celebrates the joys of falling in love and the rush of emotions that accompany those early stage feelings. Suite Two speaks to heartbreak and the polarizing reality of pain and moving on through five songs during the middle portion of the record. Suite Three comes full circle making its way back to moving forward and finding your way back to self-love.  Cliff has been performing live for more than 20 years. His single “Confident” was featured on Spotify All Funked Up and Funk Drive playlists with over 1 million + streams. He is the host of the Deeper Grooves Podcast and Deeper Grooves on 885FM. Beach is the author of Side Hustle & Flow, which chronicles his musical journey while still working a day job. He has written previously for Beautytap, Pepperdine and Rock Star Life. He is the winner of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest Grand Prize, 2 World Songwriting Awards, 4 Global Music Awards, a California Music Video & Film Award and nominated for 4 LA Music Awards, 1 Hollywood Music & Media Award, and 1 Independent Music Award and more. His music has recently been featured on the CW, HBO MAX and in a BMW spot. He is currently nominated for a World Entertainment Award for his audiobook Side Hustle & Flow.

]]> 1598 no Ep 376- "Cindy Of Arc" Is Back In NYC & We Have Cynthia Kaplan & Dani Davis Here With Us! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We love a creative mind with humor and spirit! We have Playwright & Performer Cynthia Kaplan here with Tony Winning Producer/Director Dani Davis to tell us all about their show "Cindy of Arch!" Back by popular demand, the “brilliant and blistering” Cindy of Arc continues its monthly residency at the Laurie Beechman Theater in NYC. Finalist for the 2023 Richard Rodgers Award for Musical Theater, the VERY timely celebrated comedy rock extravaganza by playwright and performer Cynthia Kaplan is about the problem men have with lying and where that's gotten the rest of us. Particularly women. And Jews. Cindy of Arc is directed by Emmy-Winning writer and Tony-nominated producer Dani Davis, who directs a cast of four, including Cynthia Kaplan with Scott Stein, Dan Barman, and Zachary Larson/Julian Maile. Cindy of Arc will be staged monthly at the Laurie Beechman Theatre, 407 West 42nd Street in NYC, with the next performance scheduled for 9:30 p.m. on December 13, 2024. Why are there no Jews in Whoville? What is a scold’s bridle? What is the song Delta Dawn really about? Should we rethink Dr. Deborah Birx? Why is the Holy Ghost a ghost? In this brand new work of comedy and music, your guide, Cindy of Arc, will answer these and other pressing questions, taking you through an abridged history of the lies men tell in such popular areas as religion, politics, sex, and, of course, songwriting. Think American Utopia but with Nazis, expletives, cannibals, dogs, no David Byrne, and no Utopia. And no choreographer. And no money. And it’s a comedy. And we wear shoes. But otherwise, very similar.  Time Out New York says “You'll laugh until you can't breathe,” and CBS News Commentator Nancy Giles calls Cynthia Kaplan “the funniest, funkiest white girl I've seen.” Cindy of Arc has also been called “A laugh-out-loud event” (Maryland Theatre Guide), "Brilliant and blistering” (NWTheatre.org), “Outrageously hilarious” (DelcoCultureVultures.com), “epically funny, and hyper-intelligent” (Folk Music Notebook Radio), “Hilarious...The show gave me early 90’s riot grrl political anarcho-punk folk meets Violent Femmes-style pop-rock” (Baltimore Fishbowl), “Raucously successful...A one-woman rock-n-roll tour through human history, mythology, literature, and more” (WBJC Radio, Maryland), and "Cindy of Arc is amazing. You are going to have a ball. Cynthia Kaplan is a genius” (Comedian Judy Gold). Cindy of Arc was first produced as a concert film shot during the pandemic in a barn on Cape Cod and premiered at the 2021 Cinequest Film Festival. In 2022, the show was workshopped on stage at Dixon Place Theater and the Five Angels Theater. Since then, Cindy of Arc has enjoyed several regional productions, including at NYC's historic Bitter End, the 50th anniversary season of Seattle's Tony Award-winning Intiman Theatre, Baltimore Theatre Project, and the Philadelphia Fringe Festival.

Time Out New York says “You'll laugh until you can't breathe,” and CBS News Commentator Nancy Giles calls Cynthia Kaplan “the funniest, funkiest white girl I've seen.” Cindy of Arc has also been called “A laugh-out-loud event” (Maryland Theatre Guide), "Brilliant and blistering” (NWTheatre.org), “Outrageously hilarious” (DelcoCultureVultures.com), “epically funny, and hyper-intelligent” (Folk Music Notebook Radio), “Hilarious...The show gave me early 90’s riot grrl political anarcho-punk folk meets Violent Femmes-style pop-rock” (Baltimore Fishbowl), “Raucously successful...A one-woman rock-n-roll tour through human history, mythology, literature, and more” (WBJC Radio, Maryland), and "Cindy of Arc is amazing. You are going to have a ball. Cynthia Kaplan is a genius” (Comedian Judy Gold).

Cindy of Arc was first produced as a concert film shot during the pandemic in a barn on Cape Cod and premiered at the 2021 Cinequest Film Festival. In 2022, the show was workshopped on stage at Dixon Place Theater and the Five Angels Theater. Since then, Cindy of Arc has enjoyed several regional productions, including at NYC's historic Bitter End, the 50th anniversary season of Seattle's Tony Award-winning Intiman Theatre, Baltimore Theatre Project, and the Philadelphia Fringe Festival.

]]> 1593 no Ep 374- Singing Superstar Jamie Fine, My New Best Friend, Has a New Single You Need To Hear! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable "LIKE I DO" is the first single release from JAMIE FINE's anticipated project. The project will be released early in 2025. "LIKE I DO" was written by Jamie Fine, Jordan Lutes, Keith Sorrells and Oscar Linnander and produced by Keith Sorrells and Oscar Linnander. In “LIKE I DO,” the Ottawa-born singer-songwriter celebrates her unique quirks, offering listeners a heartfelt glimpse into the complexities of love and self-acceptance. Fine acknowledges that she can be a handful to love but trusts that, beneath it all, her big heart shines through. Right from the opening line, she pulls us in with an honest admission about her ADHD, sharing the unique challenges it brings to relationships—from dominating conversations to needing reassurance. She knows it’s a lot to handle, but her promise remains steadfast: “No one will love you like I do.” Since going solo in 2020, Fine has cemented her place as a cultural force, with her 2022, EP "eight gardengate" showcasing her big-hearted, self-reflective nature. She’s been nominated for four JUNO Awards, with her music streamed over 100 million times worldwide by nearly 1.5 million fans who love her authenticity. In 2025, Fine will be back on stage, bringing her music to fans in person. With guitarist Matthieu St. Jules and drummer Darius Martin joining her, she’ll play key dates across the United States and Canada, with additional shows planned for South Africa in April and May, where “If Anything’s Left” became an unexpected double-platinum success. Tour dates announced so far include: February 22 – Ottawa, ON February 27 – Toronto, ON February 28 – Montreal, QC March 6 - Halifax, Canada March 7 - Moncton, Canada March 8 - Charlottetown, Canada April 19 – Durban, South Africa April 25 - Ekurhuleni, South Africa April 26 - Johannesburg, South Africa April 28 - North West, South Africa May 1 - Port Elizabeth, South Africa May 3 – Cape Town, South Africa Wherever she goes, Jamie Fine’s raw honesty and warmth make her impossible not to root for. She’s perfectly imperfect—and that’s just how we like her. Ottawa-born singer/songwriter Jamie Fine uses her music to inspire audiences to explore emotions we all feel but often struggle to express—ranging from anger and isolation to joy and connection. Her unique ability to convey intense emotion is her superpower. For Jamie, music is deeply personal: “I write music for me—it’s cathartic. It helps me process my experiences.” Releasing music, she admits, feels vulnerable: “The safest place in the world is in my head. Sharing my music is like opening that space to others, aiming to create a safe place for them to explore their own emotions.” Jamie values unfiltered, honest conversations with family, friends, and her audience: “Real connections feed my soul like writing and performing.” Time with loved ones keeps her grounded. A four-time Juno nominee, Jamie’s music has over 100 million global streams. Her hit single If Anything’s Left reached Platinum status in Canada and Double-Platinum in South Africa. With nearly 1.5 million followers worldwide, fans are drawn to her energetic personality, quirky humor, and openness. As her audience grows, Jamie’s goal remains to create inclusive, emotional spaces through her music.

]]> 1149 no Ep 361- Director & Writer Philippe Grenier Talks His Oscar Qualifying Short "Muscat" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable MUSCAT written and directed by Philippe Grenier is a film about incommunicability, resilience, taboos and sexual awakening. The meeting between Samir and Louis is decisive: like a storm in his heart and body, he experiences strong feelings that are impossible to ignore. His attraction to Louis will push Samir to reveal a truth that has been deeply repressed until now. This deeply touching short film has qualified to be considered for the 97th Academy® Awards. Samir, a 16-year-old fisherman, discovers his attraction towards men when he meets Louis, a tourist traveling Morocco with his wife. When Louis faces the worst, Samir is the only one who can help him. Philippe Grenier is a multidisciplinary creator, director of Premier Trio’s tv series broadcasted on Radio-Canada - for which he won the Gémeaux Award for Best Directing and Best Youth Program in 2024. He directed his first short film in 2013 THE ENDLESS DAYS.  MUSCAT was inspired by a story told to Grenier by his grandmother, with the ending of the film mirroring the heartbreaking travel experience of her distant cousin. The director found it necessary to tell the story through the fictional character of Samir, a young homosexual boy coming to terms with his sexuality in a country where gay individuals are still harshly persecuted. Grenier recognises his privilege, living in a country where he is free to love whoever he wants and feels it is his goal to bring more divisive stories to the screen and to defend the rights of the LGTBQIA+ community. MUSCAT recently won First Prize for the Breaking Boundaries Award at the Rhode Island International Film Festival, for films that celebrate the endurance of the human spirit and resilience in the face of injustice, whilst also taking home the award for Best Narrative Short at Provincetown International Film Festival. This incredible film features phenomenally authentic performances by Ilyes Tarmasti, Mahmoud Zabennej and Alexandre Bergeron. The immersive cinematography was carefully captured by Derek Branscombe.This incredibly emotional and poignant film has qualified to be considered for the 2025 Oscars®.  _________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

Anthony Evans’ deep faith has been the foundation of everything he has setout to accomplish in his life and ministry. Growing up the son of influential pastor, Dr. Tony Evans, among siblings Chrystal Evans Hurst, Priscilla Shirer and Jonathan Evans, all whom which have become impactful speakers, authors, and spiritual leaders themselves, Anthony’s path is unique and all his own. From Billboard charting artist, worship leader, producer, author, and actor, everything Anthony does comes from a heart of faith and his desire for that faith to make an impact inside and out of the four walls of the Church. As an accomplished vocalist, Anthony has produced 11 solo projects, two of which have hit the #1 spot on Billboard’s Gospel Album chart.

]]> 1396 no Ep 350- Sam Tsui & Casey Breves Are Back To Talk Their New Song Cycle Now Streaming! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Social media sensations Sam Tsui and Casey Breves have unveiled their latest musical endeavor, a song cycle titled 'Eight Immortals', which draws inspiration from a series of popular Chinese myths. This innovative work transforms traditional tales into a contemporary musical format, showcasing the duo's unique blend of pop and musical theater. The album is set to release on December 6th, 2024 and will consist of 22 tracks that offer listeners a fresh perspective on the legendary figures known as the 'Ba Xian' or 'Eight Immortals', celebrated in Chinese folklore. 'Eight Immortals' features a collection of self-contained vignettes, each song serving as a modern interpretation of one of the eight classic archetypes from Taoist legend. The album's tracks range from the absurd to the heartfelt, with a catchy, vocal-driven score that invites audiences on a transformative journey. Included in the lineup are songs such as 'So You Want To Be Immortal', '#MyMorningRoutine', 'I Know The Wildflowers', 'Three Treasures', and 'To Cross The Sea', each providing a unique take on the themes of enlightenment and personal transformation. Tsui and Breves, a married songwriting duo based in Los Angeles, have previously collaborated on various music projects, but 'Eight Immortals' marks a significant milestone in their artistic journey. With over 3 million subscribers and more than a billion views on Tsui's YouTube channel, their combined social media presence has made a notable impact on the music landscape. Their popular TikTok series, including 'Singing One Song From Every Country in the World' and ‘Musical Theatre Monday’, has further cemented their status as influential figures in the digital music community. The duo's connection to Chinese culture is evident in the thematic exploration within 'Eight Immortals'. This song cycle poses critical questions about the meaning of enlightenment in the modern world and the lengths individuals may go to achieve it.  Sam Tsui and Casey Breves are a married, LA-based songwriting duo, who together have written and produced viral music for numerous pop artists, brand campaigns, and their own individual artist projects. They met at Yale singing together in both a cappella and musical theater. Sam was among the first independent musicians to harness the power of Youtube and social media to cultivate an international following (calling themselves the “Samily”), with his creative mashups, covers, and original music videos. His YouTube channel has 3+ million subscribers and over a billion views. He’s a champion of Asian representation in the arts and excited to bring that passion to this project. Casey was a member of the Grammy-winning classical vocal ensemble Chanticleer, and performs across the United States, Europe, and Asia as both a pop and classical vocalist. Together, the two have released countless viral duets and have several popular TikTok series, including “Singing One Song From Every Country in the World” and “Musical Theatre Mondays”. The pair welcomed their daughter Elaia in 2021, and since becoming dads have penned a children’s book (“Why Do We Sing?” Published by HarperCollins and illustrated by Tsui) and a companion album of original kid’s music (also called “Why Do We Sing?”) released on Republic Records.  Follow Sam Tsui and Casey Breves on Instagram at:  @Caseybreves and @TheSamTsui __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

The production will be directed by Lissa Moira. The show will bow at Theater for the New City (Crystal Field, Artistic Director), 155 First Avenue, New York, NY.  Has a classical harpist—male or female—ever acted solo in a full-length, autobiographical dramatic play before?

The show delves into the most universal themes of life, love, art, devotion, conflict and loss- all told through spoken word and the sublime strains of her heart and soul, her harp.  The show boasts musical excerpts by Debussy, Puccini, Paganini, Bach, Gounod, Liszt, Albinoni as well as traditional Irish and Scottish folk songs--among other music-- performed on the harp by Costanzi.

]]> 1713 no Ep 340- Kate Hamill, The Most Produced Playwright In America, Joins Us! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Kate Hamill is here. She is the most produced Playwright in America! You heard that right! Her adaptations of classics and her originals are done all over the world! She is deeply passionate about creating new feminist, female-centered classics, both in new plays and in adaptation - stories that center around complicated women. Her work as a playwright celebrates theatricality, often features absurdity, and closely examines social and gender issues - as well as the timeless struggle to reconcile conscience / identity with social pressures. As an actor, she tends to play people with intense drives and desires - truth-tellers, oddballs, and misfits. Kate was named 2017's Playwright of the Year by the Wall Street Journal. She has been one of the 10 most-produced playwrights in the country for the last 7 years running, from 2017-2024; she is now the most-produced playwright in the USA. In both 2017-2018 and 2018-2019, she wrote two of the top 10 most produced plays in the U.S.; many of her plays have been produced internationally. Future productions on the Her plays have been produced off-Broadway, at A.R.T., Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the Guthrie, Hartford Stage, Portland Center Stage, Seattle Rep, PlayMaker’s Rep, Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival, Dallas Theater Center, Folger Theatre (8 Helen Hayes Award nominations; Winner, best production), Shakespeare Theater of DC, The Alley, A.C.T., and more. She is here to talk about her new work, she wrote and stars in, The Light and The Dark (the life and times of Artemisia Gentileschi). At the height of the Italian Renaissance, artists are reshaping the very image of humanity. Artemisia Gentileschi wants to become one of the great painters...but women are not thought capable of true artistry. With persistence and bravado she quickly establishes a groundbreaking perspective, but just as her career begins to gain momentum, a series of devastating betrayals crack the foundation of her life and art. Told through her piercing point of view, The Light and The Dark (the life and times of Artemisia Gentileschi) weaves a magnetic and empowering tapestry of art, ambition, rage, and resilience. Now at Primary Stages! Kate’s Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice,Vanity Fair, and Little Women are published by DPS; Kate’s Emma, Dracula (a feminist revenge fantasy), and Ms. Holmes & Ms. Watson, - Apt. 2B are published by TRW.

]]> 1271 no Ep 336-The Morgan Brothers Talk "The Boat" A New Short Qualified For The 2025 Academy Awards! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Writer/director Luke Morgan's THE BOAT is based on a true story of a father whose daughter displays some troubling medical symptoms forcing him to make a devastating decision. This heart-breaking short film has qualified to be considered for the 97th Academy® Awards after winning the qualifying awards at the Foyle Film Festival and Cork Film Festival. Luke Morgan is an Irish writer and director. He was nominated for the Discovery Award at the Dublin International Film Festival in 2020, and was awarded the 2015 Screenplay Pitching Award at the Galway Film Fleadh. He is also an award- winning published poet.  Producing duo Jake and Luke Morgan are the founders of Morgan Brothers based in the West Coast of Ireland. They specialise in film production, theatre, storytelling and music. Their projects are ambitious in scope, yet love is at the centre of everything they do. The Mission To End Leprosy (TMTEL) is a global network of organisations sharing a passion to end the oldest known and still existing communicable disease in human history. Ken Gibson is the CEO at The Mission To End Leprosy, Dhukia was the very first young girl he met with Leprosy and her story compelled him to commit to doing everything to ensure that no dad ever has to face such a choice again. In that very real sense, Dhukia’s story has already had a global impact: it is the inspiration and the heart of TMTEL’s Global Leprosy Eradication Programme. It’s a story with the potential to bring healing to 50 million people and to prevent generations to come from the suffering and stigma that leprosy causes. The stunning cinematography was created by Lakshika Serasinhe. Along with its great success at Cork and Foyle Film Festival this thought-provoking film has won many more accolades along the way including Best Short Film and Best Composer at the Worcester amongst many more.  As THE BOAT embarks on its global journey, the Morgan brothers are committed to using their success to support organisations working towards eradicating leprosy. This Oscar qualifying is a catalyst for change, inspiring audiences to join the mission to end leprosy and break down the stigma associated with this age-old disease. This heart-rending film has qualified to be considered for the 2025 Oscars® __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

SHATTER BELT stars Emmy Award-Winner Patton Oswalt, Abigail Spencer, Emily Baldoni and more, and is a mind-bending series that dives head first into the deep end questions about our relationship to reality.   James Ward Byrkit grew up in the forest near Flagstaff, Arizona helping his father explore ancient Spanish and Indigenous trails in remote regions of the state. His love of storytelling and drawing led him to CalArts where he began to make bizarre, multilayered films that broke traditional narrative rules. He cut his teeth designing elaborate visuals for Hollywood blockbusters like the original PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN trilogy. He co-wrote the Academy Award-winning animated feature RANGO, wrote music for and performed several voices in the film.  Byrkit’s first feature attempt COHERENCE garnered several major festival awards as well as a Gotham Award nomination for Breakout Director. The film was shot in five nights with no crew and no script. The dialogue was 98% improvised based on clues and notes given individually to the actors before they arrived.  The movie is now considered a major international cult sci-fi favorite, inspiring a generation of filmmakers and landing at the top of several “Best Of” lists.  Byrkit’s television series “Shatter Belt” follows multiple stories that explore the edge of consciousness and human intention. He executive produced, directed and wrote the episodes, with his sister Alyssa Byrkit and cryptocurrency guru Olaf Carlson-Wee also executive producing. “Shatter Belt” premieres at SXSW Film Festival in a special spotlight screening March 14th, 2023. __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

]]> 1470 no Ep 326- Director Rosemarie Reeds Talks "Forgetting The Many: The Royal Pardon of Alan Turning" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable The critically acclaimed documentary Forgetting the Many: The Royal Pardon of Alan Turing will have a one-week run at Cinema Village in NYC beginning December 6th. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Rosemarie Reed and narrated by acclaimed actor Ben Whishaw, this powerful film examines the posthumous pardon of World War II hero and codebreaker, Alan Turing, and delves into the stories of other men like Turing, who were convicted under the 1885 British law that criminalized male homosexual acts as “gross indecency,” as well as other offences. Through in-depth interviews, archival footage, and personal stories, Forgetting the Many highlights their struggle for justice, showing how these men lost their jobs, their families, and their dignity—all because of a law that criminalized love.  We are joined by Director Rosemarie Reed! She is passionate, knowledgable, & we were excited to chat with her! In 2009, the then-Prime Minister Gordon Brown issued a formal apology for Alan Turing’s 1952 conviction for same-sex acts. Then, in 2013, Queen Elizabeth II posthumously pardoned him. This royal pardon extended only to Turing. It left thousands of other men convicted under the same and similar laws without a pardon. In 2017, the Policing and Crime Act, amended by what became known as “Turing’s Law,” provided automatic posthumous pardons for deceased men who had been convicted of homosexual behaviour that was no longer a crime.  Forgetting the Many: The Royal Pardon of Alan Turing is a timely reminder of the struggles that LGBTQ+ individuals have faced in the fight for equality. Reed’s film shines a spotlight on the continuing fight for justice, both in the UK and around the world, where similar laws and their legacies still impact lives today. While the legal battle for pardons continues, the film calls attention to the need for societal change and greater recognition of the harms done to these men. __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

]]> 737 no Ep 324- Director Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger Talks His New Film "Lost On A Mountain In Maine!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Filmmaker Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger on behalf of his upcoming adventure film LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE, produced by Sylvester Stallone and in theaters nationwide from Blue Fox Entertainment on November 1st. LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE is a classic American movie we don’t see much of anymore — an emotional epic tale of hope, grit, and family, chiseled with a modern edge and grounded by a tour-de-force performance from 15-year-old star Luke David Blumm.  Based on the book by the same name (which is required reading for Maine elementary school students), LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE tells the inspiring true story of Donn Fendler, a 12-year-old boy, who, separated from his family by a fast-moving storm, must fight to stay alive during his nine-day adventure lost in the backwoods of Maine. The film was shot in ACTUAL wilderness — up to their neck in rivers, hiking mountains — everyday on set, the cast and crew hoisted the banner for Stallone’s underdog ethos. Before taking on the project, director Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger even had to hike Mount Katahdin (the Maine mountain Donn Fendler got lost on) to prove he was up for the task. Born and raised in Madagascar and later living in South Dakota, Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger’s multi-cultural origins have fueled a prolific genre-fluid approach to storytelling. Growing up in Madagascar in the 1980s, there was a footlocker full of movies that traveled around from missionary family to missionary family, and it was a trove of Joe Dante movies that taught Andrew about filmmaking and led him on his path to becoming a director.  In addition to LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE, Kightlinger has directed the prairie-bound drama TATER TOT & PATTON starring Jessica Rothe and the award-winning short film DESTROYER with Alan Ruck. He is also the winner of the Screenwriting Grand Prize at the 2016 Slamdance Film Festival.  LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE stars Luke David Blumm (“The Watcher”), Paul Sparks (“House of Cards”), Caitlin FitzGerald (The Trial of the Chicago 7, “Succession”), Griffin Wallace Henkel (Armageddon Time), and Ethan Slater (Universal’s upcoming Wicked).  You can check out the official trailer and learn more at the film’s official website. __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE is a classic American movie we don’t see much of anymore — an emotional epic tale of hope, grit, and family, chiseled with a modern edge and grounded by a tour-de-force performance from 15-year-old star Luke David Blumm.

 Based on the book by the same name (which is required reading for Maine elementary school students), LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE tells the inspiring true story of Donn Fendler, a 12-year-old boy, who, separated from his family by a fast-moving storm, must fight to stay alive during his nine-day adventure lost in the backwoods of Maine.

The film was shot in ACTUAL wilderness — up to their neck in rivers, hiking mountains — everyday on set, the cast and crew hoisted the banner for Stallone’s underdog ethos.

Before taking on the project, director Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger even had to hike Mount Katahdin (the Maine mountain Donn Fendler got lost on) to prove he was up for the task.

Born and raised in Madagascar and later living in South Dakota, Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger’s multi-cultural origins have fueled a prolific genre-fluid approach to storytelling. Growing up in Madagascar in the 1980s, there was a footlocker full of movies that traveled around from missionary family to missionary family, and it was a trove of Joe Dante movies that taught Andrew about filmmaking and led him on his path to becoming a director.

 In addition to LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE, Kightlinger has directed the prairie-bound drama TATER TOT & PATTON starring Jessica Rothe and the award-winning short film DESTROYER with Alan Ruck. He is also the winner of the Screenwriting Grand Prize at the 2016 Slamdance Film Festival. 

LOST ON A MOUNTAIN IN MAINE stars Luke David Blumm (“The Watcher”), Paul Sparks (“House of Cards”), Caitlin FitzGerald (The Trial of the Chicago 7, “Succession”), Griffin Wallace Henkel (Armageddon Time), and Ethan Slater (Universal’s upcoming Wicked). 

You can check out the official trailer and learn more at the film’s official website.

]]> 1001 no Ep 318- Karen Mason Talks Her New Album, "& All That Jazz," Broadway, & Being A Cabaret LEGEND! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Zevely Records and King Kozmo Music, a division of the Jazzheads Music Group, have announced that Karen Mason And All That Jazz! – the singular album from acclaimed Broadway star and concert artist KAREN MASON – is now available on CD and in digital and streaming formats today, Friday, October 25. For this personal new collection, Karen explores the beloved songbook of John Kander and Fred Ebb, the justly celebrated Grammy, Emmy and Tony Award-winning team behind the Broadway musicals Cabaret; Chicago; New York, New York; and beyond. Karen is accompanied on solo piano by her longtime music director, Christopher Denny. The album is produced and mixed by Paul Rolnick with arrangements by Christopher Denny and Barry Kleinbort, who directed the original concert version of the show. Stream or download the album at https://orcd.co/pp80vaq Karen will celebrate the album with a special concert at 54 Below in New York on Sunday, November 10 and then a run at Davenport’s in Chicago on November 13-16. For ticket information, please visit KarenMason.com. Karen Mason And All That Jazz! presents Karen’s dazzling take on Kander & Ebb’s songs, which have been lighting up Broadway since the 1960s. Eschewing her typical orchestral accompaniment for subtle yet engaging piano, Karen’s interpretations are the perfect mix of intimacy and excitement. Christopher Denny’s playing, with its myriad shades and colors, sounds like an orchestra in itself. While Mason puts her unique spin on classics like “All That Jazz,” “Maybe This Time” and “A Quiet Thing,” the album also delves into less often performed shows such as The Visit (“Love and Love Alone”), The Scottsboro Boys (“Go Back Home”), and The Happy Time (“The Life of the Party”). In one particularly fascinating twist of fate, Karen gives us the rousing “I’m One of the Smart Ones,” which was originally written for the unproduced show Golden Gate, but ended up making a memorable appearance on Broadway last season in the musical New York, New York. KAREN MASON has starred on Broadway, Off-Broadway, television, in concert, and in the recording studio. She’s been praised for her “fierce emotion” by The New York Times, her “innate comic ability” by Playbill and her “delightful instrument” by the Daily News. Karen has been called “immensely appealing” by The Chicago Tribune, “a towering talent” by TheaterMania and “a dynamic performer” by Time Out New York. She is a 14-time MAC Award winner; most recently she was the recipient of the 2019 MAC Lifetime Achievement Award, the 2023 Major Artist Album of the Year, and was honored with the MAC Award for Major Female Vocalist of the Year for six consecutive years.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Sun, 27 Oct 2024 10:00:00 -0000 Karen Mason Talks Her New Album, "& All That Jazz," Broadway, & Being A Cabaret LEGEND! full 1 318 Broadway Podcast Network Her Album, A Love Letter To Kander & Ebb is Out Now! Zevely Records and King Kozmo Music, a division of the Jazzheads Music Group, have announced that Karen Mason And All That Jazz! – the singular album from acclaimed Broadway star and concert artist KAREN MASON – is now available on CD and in digital and streaming formats today, Friday, October 25. For this personal new collection, Karen explores the beloved songbook of John Kander and Fred Ebb, the justly celebrated Grammy, Emmy and Tony Award-winning team behind the Broadway musicals Cabaret; Chicago; New York, New York; and beyond. Karen is accompanied on solo piano by her longtime music director, Christopher Denny. The album is produced and mixed by Paul Rolnick with arrangements by Christopher Denny and Barry Kleinbort, who directed the original concert version of the show. Stream or download the album at https://orcd.co/pp80vaq Karen will celebrate the album with a special concert at 54 Below in New York on Sunday, November 10 and then a run at Davenport’s in Chicago on November 13-16. For ticket information, please visit KarenMason.com. Karen Mason And All That Jazz! presents Karen’s dazzling take on Kander & Ebb’s songs, which have been lighting up Broadway since the 1960s. Eschewing her typical orchestral accompaniment for subtle yet engaging piano, Karen’s interpretations are the perfect mix of intimacy and excitement. Christopher Denny’s playing, with its myriad shades and colors, sounds like an orchestra in itself. While Mason puts her unique spin on classics like “All That Jazz,” “Maybe This Time” and “A Quiet Thing,” the album also delves into less often performed shows such as The Visit (“Love and Love Alone”), The Scottsboro Boys (“Go Back Home”), and The Happy Time (“The Life of the Party”). In one particularly fascinating twist of fate, Karen gives us the rousing “I’m One of the Smart Ones,” which was originally written for the unproduced show Golden Gate, but ended up making a memorable appearance on Broadway last season in the musical New York, New York. KAREN MASON has starred on Broadway, Off-Broadway, television, in concert, and in the recording studio. She’s been praised for her “fierce emotion” by The New York Times, her “innate comic ability” by Playbill and her “delightful instrument” by the Daily News. Karen has been called “immensely appealing” by The Chicago Tribune, “a towering talent” by TheaterMania and “a dynamic performer” by Time Out New York. She is a 14-time MAC Award winner; most recently she was the recipient of the 2019 MAC Lifetime Achievement Award, the 2023 Major Artist Album of the Year, and was honored with the MAC Award for Major Female Vocalist of the Year for six consecutive years. She has also won the 2006 Nightlife Award for Major Female Vocalist and has three Bistro Awards.   __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

]]> 914 no Ep 315-Andy Karl, Broadway Superstar That He Is, Is Back On Stage In NYC! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable WE LOVE ANDY! Broadway icon Andy Karl, who is set to make his highly anticipated return to the New York stage this month in the new Michael R. Jackson musical, “Teeth,” at New World Stages. Andy joins the production as ‘Pastor Bill O'Keefe’. Following its sold-out, extended run at Playwrights Horizons, “Teeth” will live on at New World Stages. Based on the cult classic film, the show is a fierce, rapturous, and savagely entertaining new musical crackling with irrepressible desire and ancient rage – a dark comedy conjuring the legend of one girl whose sexual curse is also her salvation. Dawn O’Keefe is an evangelical Christian teen with a powerful secret not even she understands – when men violate her, her body bites back. That’s not a metaphor. Andy Karl is a three-time Tony Award nominee and Drama Desk Award winner known for his Olivier Award-winning, Tony-nominated role as ‘Phil Connors’ in “Groundhog Day” which played on Broadway, at London’s Old Vic and Melbourne's Princess Theatre. He was previously seen in the Broadway revival of “Into the Woods” and leading the Broadway musical “Pretty Woman.” He earned back-to-back Tony Award nominations for 2014’s “Rocky” and the following year’s “On the Twentieth Century.” Additional Broadway credits include “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” “9 to 5,” “Legally Blonde,” “The Wedding Singer,” “Jersey Boys,” and “Saturday Night Fever.” On television, Andy is well known for his fan-favorite role on “Law & Order: SVU” as ‘Lieutenant Mike among others. On film he appeared alongside Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton in the feature film “And So It Goes,” directed by Rob Reiner, and Christina Ricci in “Here After.” We talk about "Teeth," his career, & so much more!

]]> 1000 no Ep 313- Cellovoci- Branden, James, & Effie Passero Come To Talk Their Gorgeous New Album! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable CelloVoci – the newly formed classical-crossover group starring internationally renowned cello and vocal duo BRANDEN & JAMES, along with powerhouse singer/songwriter EFFIE PASSERO from “American Idol” and Postmodern Jukebox – has announced that their debut album Happy Days is available in digital formats and on CD is OUT! The album’s first single, an epic version of the chart-topper “The Prayer,” was released last month. Two “Behind the Music” videos that explore the song are available on the CelloVoci YouTube channel, youtube.com/@CelloVoci.   Since forming during the pandemic, the trio has toured extensively around United States, along with several cities in Mexico. CelloVoci will embark on a new branch of the tour through 2025 and beyond, including upcoming dates in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; Chicago, IL; Plymouth, MA; Milton, DE; and more. For the full calendar, visit CelloVoci.com. From the soaring opening medley – the trio’s bravura take on the legendary Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand duet, “Happy Days Are Here Again” and “Get Happy” – to the closing track, Happy Days is a musical tour-de force. Other ingenious combinations, such as their haunting blend of the Latin standard “Bésame Mucho” with the Eagles’ evergreen “Hotel California,” create a special sonic interplay which allows you to hear these beloved songs as if for the first time. Showcasing skills beyond her remarkable singing ability, Passero performs an original composition, the melodic and heartfelt ballad “Simply Happy.” The trios enters the rock arena with an emotionally charged medley of “Chasing Cars,” from the Irish/Scottish band Snow Patrol, and Amanda McBroom’s delicate movie theme “The Rose.” The album concludes with an unusually plaintive “You Are My Sunshine,” as Effie’s lovely vocal dovetails exquisitely with Branden’s “Over the Rainbow” – bookending this collection with another iconic Judy Garland song. Moving beyond the typically stiff and stentorian traps of the classical-crossover genre, CelloVoci’s extraordinary musicianship and uncommon musical pairings deftly showcase the group with power and sensitivity. Their premiere album Happy Days is set help launch them to even bigger stages around the globe.   __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

]]> 1631 no Ep 305-Actor Masud Olufani Talks Playing Fredrick Douglas This Election Season In NYC! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable  Hudson Hall at the historic Hudson Opera House announces No Cowards in Our Band, a powerful musical drama that tells the story of an aging and contemplative Frederick Douglass (1818-1895). Set against the backdrop of post-Reconstruction America, No Cowards in Our Band portrays Frederick Douglass as he considers the social, economic, and political ramifications of slavery and the Civil War and their impact on the future of the United States. Based on a libretto by Anthony Knight, Jr.and interwoven with Negro spirituals, No Cowards in our Band intimately connects Douglass’s words with the music, drawing audiences into his lived, visceral, and strikingly relatable experience. Premiering November 2nd in Hudson Hall’s historic 19th-century theater, this semi-staged production is directed by Hudson-based Michael Hofmann with musical arrangement by “one of the most dynamic postbop pianists of his generation” (WBGO.org), GRAMMY-nominated jazz artist Orrin Evans, who accompanies on piano. In No Cowards in Our Band, Frederick Douglass’ story – brought to life by actor, artist, and TV personality Masud Olufani  – provides a conduit through which other significant stories of the time can be told: how African Americans freed themselves from enslavement, the importance of family to enslaved African Americans, the role of African Americans in the Abolitionist Movement, the turning points that were the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, the Dred Scott case of 1857, the election of President Abraham Lincoln in 1860, and post-Civil War society and Frederick Douglass’ influence on it. Masud is here to tell us all about channeling Fredrick Douglas, the show, and why it is as important as ever!

]]> 1627 Ep 300- Mayor Brandon Scott of Baltimore Talks His New Documentary "The Body Politic" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Rarely do we get Political here on The Roundtable, but somethings just are beyond party lines. As a teacher, I was honored to talk to the Mayor of Baltimore Brandon Scott & Filmmaker Gabriel Francis Paz Goodenough about their new doc, "The Body Politic" and how the Mayor is reducing gun violence. We have all heard the stories, seen the heartbreak, and for teachers and students, sat in lock down drills with the fear of guns. Together we can make our leaders make a change! "THE BODY POLITIC is a harbinger of hope in a country plagued by gun violence. Brandon Scott is a young Mayor who grew up during Baltimore’s most troubling years and sets out, with unyielding idealism, to change the course of his battered and beloved city. He is elected Mayor amid nationwide unrest following the murder of George Floyd. With unfettered access, cameras follow Brandon throughout his first year in office as he introduces an ambitious plan for violence reduction and police reform that he promises will lower the city’s murder rate.  Pundits claim Brandon’s political health and the city’s health are tied to the number 348 – the total murders Baltimore had the previous year, more homicides than New York City, a city 15 times its size. After entering office and barely getting a chance to enact his first safety reforms, violence surges to new highs. As the media and political foes attack his holistic approach, his commitment to his plan and principles put his political future in jeopardy. Will his holistic approach lead to healing and serve as a blueprint for the rest of the nation?

]]> 1955 no Ep 299- Writer, Director, Actor Jussie Smollett Talks His New Film "The Lost Holiday!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We are a show where artists talk art. We do not judge, we do not pry, we provide a place for storytellers to tell their story! We welcomed Jussie Smollett to do just that with his new film "The Lost Holiday," and we had a fun chat while he was helping his sister move! From award-winning musician, writer, producer, director, and star, Jussie Smollett, comes the highly anticipated film “The Lost Holliday” set to debut in US theaters on September 27th. The critically acclaimed, poignant, and heartwarming indie film, which received rave reviews at ABFF, will open in select AMC Theatres this September. Vivica A. Fox stars as Cassandra Marshall, who arrives in Los Angeles to plan the funeral of her estranged son, Damien Holliday (Jabari Redd). Upon her arrival, Cassandra discovers that the funeral arrangements are already being handled by her son's husband, Jason Holliday (Jussie Smollett) - a man and a marriage she knew nothing about. Through Jason, their adopted daughter Arielle (Londyn Carter), Jason's sister Cheyenne (Brittany Hall), and best friend Duck (Marquise Vilsón), Cassandra learns more about her son in death than she ever did in his life. "The Lost Holliday" explores themes of family dynamics, friendship, fatherhood, adoption, mother-son and father-daughter relationships, grief, and the bonds of love that transcend time, generational trauma, and even death. The film also celebrates LGBTQIA+ representation and the importance of acceptance, shining a light on the adversity and triumphs of a same-gender-loving couple navigating family dissension and societal presumptions.

We talk all sorts of things in this fun and deep chat! He has a big ole show coming to Boston and you need to hear all about it especially all the Gershwin fans out there! Hailed by The New York Times as “one of the nation’s most intriguing opera companies,” Odyssey Opera, in partnership with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP), presents a rare Boston showing of the Gershwin brothers’ two political musicals at New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall, Saturday, October 12, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. With scores by George Gershwin, libretti by Ira Gershwin, and books by George S. Kaufman and Morrie Ryskind, the stories of Of Thee I Sing (1931) and Let ‘Em Eat Cake (1933) are both centered on American politics: the former being a politically correct Pulitzer Prize-winning musical; the latter, a politically incorrect flop.  Reimagined as a live concert experience, conductor Gil Rose leads a formidable ensemble of established singers including Heather Buck, Aaron Engebreth, Neal Ferreira, and more, accompanied by the Odyssey Opera chorus and the acclaimed BMOP orchestra.When it was first performed on Broadway, Of Thee I Sing was a hit with over 440 performances. It won the Pulitzer Prize in 1932 in Drama, the first musical to win that prestigious award. The Prize Committee said: “Of Thee I Sing is not only coherent and well-knit enough to class as a play, but it is a biting and true satire on American politics and the public attitude towards them.”  About Gil Rose        Gil Rose is one of today’s most trailblazing conductors, praised as “amazingly versatile” (The Boston Globe) with “a sense of style and sophistication” (Opera News). Equally at home performing core repertoire, new music, and lesser-known historic symphonic and operatic works, “Gil Rose is not just a fine conductor, but a peerless curator, sniffing out—and commissioning—off-trend, unheralded, and otherwise underplayed repertoire that nevertheless holds to unfailingly high standards of quality. In doing so, he’s built an indefinable, but unmistakable, personal aesthetic” (WQXR). A global leader in American contemporary music, Grammy Award-winner Rose is the founder of the performing and recording ensemble, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP), who “bring an endlessly curious and almost archaeological mind to programming…with each concert, each recording, an essential step in a better direction” (The New York Times), as well as the founder of Odyssey Opera, praised by The New York Times as “bold and intriguing.” GilRoseConductor.com  __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

]]> 1543 no Ep 295- Writer & Actor James Harvey Talks His New Show "Kafkaesque!" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Kafkaesque!, a world premiere musical comedy featuring book, music and lyrics by James Harvey (Prime Day, The Bald Faced Truth, The Crack in the Ceiling) and directed by Ashley Brooke Monroe (Hamilton national tour, Life of Pi; The New Group: All of Me). The production will play October 18-November 11, 2024 at 154 Christopher (formerly the New Ohio Theatre). Opening night is Monday, October 21. Tickets are available now at Ovation Tix. James Harvey has earned a following in experimental theatre with his irreverent takes on cultural moments. He’s lampooned everything from Amazon to TikTok, to Furries, earning recognition from the Edinburgh and U.S. Fringe Festivals, the New York Musical Theatre Festival, and the New York International Fringe Festival, where his play The Crack in the Ceiling received the award for Best Musical. Harvey backs up his sardonic wit with bona fide musical talent, and has accompanied and music directed for Alan Cumming, Bowen Yang, and Larry Owens, amongst others.  Franz Kafka may never have intended for his name to become an adjective, but nevertheless, Kafkaesque! celebrates his body of work by layering predicaments from his stories onto one contemporary American family. The result is horrifying bodily transformations, artistic eating disorders, and cancel culture run amok, all under the dark umbrella and relentless grind of late-stage capitalism. This hilarious and genre-bending musical was one of the hits of the 2023 New York Theater Festival. __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, and on social media!

Born in Texas and raised in New Mexico, Sheridan O’Donnell is a Korean-American filmmaker based in Los Angeles. As a creator, his work is known for exploring family, identity, and human connection through character-driven narratives that seamlessly balance catharsis and humor. O’Donnell recently made waves with his directorial debut, Little Brother, which stars JK Simmons, Daniel Diemer (The Half of It), and Philip Ettinger (First Reformed), and took home the Audience Award at the 2023 Atlanta Film Festival. The film was inspired by his personal experiences with mental health and suicide, and follows Jake (Diemer) as he drives his older brother (Ettinger) across the American West after his most recent suicide attempt. Along the way, the two struggle to reconcile past traumas and forge a new bond. O’Donnell was selected as part of Inevitable Foundation’s Winter 2022 Elevate Collective Cohort for disabled writers and was a fellow of the RespectAbility Lab, highlighting him as a dynamic voice in a new generation of diverse storytellers. O’Donnell is currently directing a feature-length documentary as a follow-up to the Emmy Award-winning film Rising Phoenix. The new film, working titled Rising Phoenix: A New Revolution, is produced in partnership with Harder Than You Think and P&G Studios. In the film, O’Donnell will chronicle his own story as a disabled filmmaker and profile an international cast of entertainers, athletes, activists, and world leaders—in hopes of igniting a global conversation surrounding the disability movement. _______________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" every Thursday 7pm EST/4pm PST PLUS: The Talk Series where artists share their art and their heart.

]]> 1697 no Ep 277- New Musical "Lifeline" Comes To NY & The Album Is Out! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Center Stage Records announced today the release of the concept recording of LIFELINE, the new musical written by Becky Hope-Palmer with music and lyrics by Robin Hiley. The recording features performances by Aaron Lazar, Arielle Jacobs, Nathan Salstone, Jay Armstrong Johnson, and Mia Gerachis. The album is available Friday, July 26, 204 at www.CenterStageRecords.com and at all digital outlets. It can be pre-saved now at https://orcd.co/lifelineconcept. The musical Lifeline, written by Becky Hope-Palmer with music and lyrics by Robin Hiley, takes audiences on a captivating journey into the life of Alexander Fleming, the Scottish scientist whose discovery of penicillin revolutionized medicine. Beginning in 1928, the story unfolds as Fleming stumbles upon a mold that would change the course of history. Featuring a Scottish folk-influenced score, the musical brings to life the struggles, triumphs, and impact of this groundbreaking scientific achievement. Lifeline goes beyond the historical narrative of Alexander Fleming's discovery of penicillin. The musical weaves together two parallel stories, intertwining Fleming's journey with that of Jess, a present-day doctor. Jess' childhood sweetheart, Aaron, is battling cancer, adding an emotional layer to the narrative. The audience witnesses Aaron's desperate desire to resume a normal life and rekindle their romance, all while his fate hangs in the balance. The musical delves into the timeless themes of hope, resilience, and the human spirit. Featuring an all-star cast including Drama Desk Award nominee Aaron Lazar (The Last Ship), Arielle Jacobs (Here Lies Love), Nathan Salstone (Sweeney Todd), Drama Desk winner Jay Armstrong Johnson (Parade), Mia Gerachis (Pretty Woman), as well as original cast members Richard Lounds, Sarah Haddath, Graham Richardson, Steph Strachan, Rhian Ferrigan and Jess Barker. It also features an international chorus of real-life scientists and healthcare professionals, from previous touring casts to Scotland, Atlanta and Washington DC, who work every day with the global health threat of antibiotic resistance, which the musical centers around. Previously entitled The Mould that Changed the World, the musical is a two-time Edinburgh Festival Fringe sell-out (2018 and 2022) and has toured to London, Glasgow, Atlanta and Washington DC (2022), and will enjoy an Off-Broadway run in August and September 2024. The concept album is produced by Robin Hiley.

Jess' childhood sweetheart, Aaron, is battling cancer, adding an emotional layer to the narrative. The audience witnesses Aaron's desperate desire to resume a normal life and rekindle their romance, all while his fate hangs in the balance. The musical delves into the timeless themes of hope, resilience, and the human spirit. Featuring an all-star cast including Drama Desk Award nominee Aaron Lazar (The Last Ship), Arielle Jacobs (Here Lies Love), Nathan Salstone (Sweeney Todd), Drama Desk winner Jay Armstrong Johnson (Parade), Mia Gerachis (Pretty Woman), as well as original cast members Richard Lounds, Sarah Haddath, Graham Richardson, Steph Strachan, Rhian Ferrigan and Jess Barker. It also features an international chorus of real-life scientists and healthcare professionals, from previous touring casts to Scotland, Atlanta and Washington DC, who work every day with the global health threat of antibiotic resistance, which the musical centers around. Previously entitled The Mould that Changed the World, the musical is a two-time Edinburgh Festival Fringe sell-out (2018 and 2022) and has toured to London, Glasgow, Atlanta and Washington DC (2022), and will enjoy an Off-Broadway run in August and September 2024. The concept album is produced by Robin Hiley.

There is a new workshop in the fall and it’s heading to a full new production soon. Chilina was honored to meet and consult with Ms. King, also attending the US Open for the first time last year. Chilina starred in The Last Timbit, a musical produced in Toronto in June in celebration of Tim Hortons’ 60th anniversary, that was inspired by a 2010 snowstorm that forced people to shelter at a local Tim Hortons. The show’s live capture will be available on the streaming service Crave, start on August 12.

Playwright & Actor Dave Droxler with Director Chad Austin will start off at Hedgerow Theatre Company from October 9-27, 2024 and will continue onto PPU Pittsburgh Playhouse in January of 2025, where these wonderful companies will produce new versions of the piece. Additional production information can be found at https://www.hedgerowtheatre.org  and https://playhouse.pointpark.edu. Dave’s got a lot on his mind. And the only person who can help him unpack it all is his imaginary friend and real life idol: Robin Williams. ROBIN & ME: MY LITTLE SPARK OF MADNESS is an autobiographical play that follows Dave Droxler as he becomes multiple characters and whimsically relives hilarious and difficult life moments, including the times when his father dropped the ball and Robin stepped in to get him through it. But how long will it take before Dave learns how to do it without Robin’s help? www.abingdontheatre.org ______________________________________________________ Listen to find out more only on “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon!” For more info on Robert- www.RobertBannon.com Follow Him on IG- @RobertMBannon TikTok-@RobertMBannon Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 1362 no Ep 261- Singer Rex Dean & Author Laura Pritchett Talk Changing The World With Art! We love siblings, inspiration, and activism! Today's guests do it all and happen to be siblings! ‘Three Keys’ is the latest novel from Laura Pritchett. Newly widowed and unemployed, a woman in her mid-fifties sets off on a journey of trespassing and adventure through the American West and beyond in this witty, thought-provoking novel from the PEN USA Award–winning writer. Pritchett had been using her brother Rex Dean’s song “Butterfly Girl” in the graduate courses she teaches on nature writing. “When my publisher started putting together a Q&A for book clubs and asked what songs the protagonist might be listening to on the road, I thought of songs like John Denver’s ‘Rocky Mountain High’ and Joni Mitchell’s ‘Big Yellow Taxi’ — and my brother’s song.” Dean and Pritchett grew up with seven other siblings on a ranch in Colorado. Dean is very proud of his little sister’s success as a writer and activist. “Butterfly Girl” is a song about environmental damage, and the legacy we are leaving for our children.  Dean hopes “Butterfly Girl” strikes a chord, and encourages people to see where real change will come from. “The real opportunity for saving the world is getting money out of politics, and accountability into business, so that our greedy, power hungry business leaders and politicians, who take bribes and make terrible decisions for everyone but themselves, are replaced by leaders who care.”  Laura Pritchett’s seventh novel, “Three Keys” is available wherever books are sold on July 16th. ‘Butterfly Girl’ is available on all major music platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon. Dean has sung for Princess Grace, Leonard Berstein, Ella Fitzegerald, and at the Montreux Jazz Festival, and yet this is his first song in wide release. Dean is also a filmmaker and his first feature, ‘Space Baby and the Holy Grail’ is currently completing a festival circuit before seeking distribution.  ________________________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com or Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

Life On The Road, & How It All Fades Away! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable CLUB44 RECORDS is pleased to announce that Broadway star Nick Cartell – currently starring as Jean Valjean on the national tour of Les Misérables – has released “It All Fades Away,” the new single from his upcoming album A Thousand Spotlights – today, Friday, June 28. The rousing love song was written by Jason Robert Brown for the musical The Bridges of Madison County. A Thousand Spotlights, featuring a delightfully diverse mix of Broadway standards and movie classics and boasting a full orchestra, will be available on CD and in streaming and digital platforms on Friday, July 26. A Thousand Spotlights is produced by Brian Eads and Wayne Haun, who also provide orchestrations, with Nick Cartell and Christine Cartell serving as executive producers. Pre-order or pre-save the album at c44.lnk.to/AThousandSpotlights A Thousand Spotlights features beloved Disney classics that range from the 1950s (a lush “A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes,” from Cinderella), to the 1980s (the jubilant “Why Should I Worry?” from Oliver & Company), and the 1990s (a tender “You’ll Be in My Heart,” from Tarzan, with a special guest appearance by Cartell’s young daughter). Other musical highlights include selections from the great American songbook (Irving Berlin’s “Blue Skies”) and contemporary Hollywood (Pasek and Paul’s “Never Enough,” from The Greatest Showman). Musical theater is represented by a slyly swinging “On the Street Where You Live” from My Fair Lady, “Music of the Night” from The Phantom of the Opera, and the Les Misérables ballad “Bring Him Home,” which Cartell stops the show with every night.  Nick Cartell was seen on Broadway in Paramour, the first musical produced by Cirque Du Soleil, where he was a standby for and performed the three male lead roles. He also appeared in the musical Scandalous, written by NBC TV “Today” host Kathie Lee Gifford, and can be heard on the Original Broadway Cast Recording. Nick made his Broadway debut in the Tony Award-nominated 2012 revival of Jesus Christ Superstar, understudying and performing the roles of Jesus Christ, Judas Iscariot and the High Priest Annas. He has also toured the U.S. and Canada in The Phantom of the Opera.  ​​​Nick has sung with the South Coast Symphony, the Phoenix Symphony and as a member of the critically acclaimed group The Broadway Boys. In March 2019, he performed his first solo show, Bringing It Home, to a sold-out room at 54 Below. A graduate of Arizona State University with a BFA in Theatre, Nick enjoyed a brief stint in Japan performing with a certain famous Mouse. While there he met his incredible wife, actress/singer Christine Cartell. Together, they produce Broadway Fights Ovarian Cancer, a benefit concert raising funds and awareness for Ovarian Cancer research. Nick and Christine's best collaboration to date is their little girl.

Harnar will celebrate the album with special concerts at New York’s 54 Below on Friday, July 26 and Saturday, July 27. The album's special guests – Clint Holmes, MOIPEI, and Nicole Zuraitis – will appear on Saturday, July 27, while MOIPEI, Sally Mayes, and Eric Comstock will appear Friday, July 26.

Working largely with composers Jule Styne and Jimmy Van Heusen, Cahn turned out lyrics that were by turns romantic, witty and punchy, with a touch of melancholy that touched the hearts of millions; songs such as “Come Fly with Me,” “All the Way,” “Call Me Irresponsible,” “Time After Time” and “I Fall in Love Too Easily” – all included here – became embedded in the fabric of the nation.

Working largely with composers Jule Styne and Jimmy Van Heusen, Cahn turned out lyrics that were by turns romantic, witty and punchy, with a touch of melancholy that touched the hearts of millions; songs such as “Come Fly with Me,” “All the Way,” “Call Me Irresponsible,” “Time After Time” and “I Fall in Love Too Easily” – all included here – became embedded in the fabric of the nation.

]]> 3205 Ep 252- Violin Chart Topping Artist Damien Escobar Talks His New Album, "Gemini," Tour, and More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Hailed as one of the most influential and impactful violinists in modern history— two-time Emmy award-winning artist, Damien Escobar, has spent nearly two decades cementing his legacy as the “King of Strings”. He’s inspired listeners, broke barriers, and created a blueprint for other contemporary violinists who aspire to top the charts and make their way onto main stages around the world. And his work is just getting started. The Jamaica, Queens native who is known for his charisma, sincere humility, and undeniable talent— has always believed the key to his success is rooted in his humble beginnings. It is the main source that keeps him connected to his fans, and cultivates his unending love for performing. And if you’ve heard his story you know that Escobar’s journey after Juilliard (from which he graduated at the age of 12) wasn’t easy! But his passion and vision took him from playing for straphangers on NYC subways to serenading everyone from Oprah to the Obamas while achieving several lifetime goals in between— including an NAACP award nomination, topping the 100 Billboard charts, and selling 1M+ records. In 2022 Escobar sold out venues across the nation with his “Life Out Loud” tour — an inspiring experience intended to affirm audiences to live authentically and unapologetically. And with new ventures, including new music being developed, Escobar is letting it be known that his reign as the King of Strings will not cease. With the release of the "GEMINI" album, Escobar is on a mission to prove there’s astonishing power in instrumental music and his intention is to motivate listeners and make an impact on mainstream music like never before.

We have an up & coming star for you! A native New Yorker by way of Ecuador, Domenica Feraud has been part of the city’s theatre landscape for over a decade, despite her young age. She wrote and starred in her 2019 breakout play, Rinse, Repeat which the New York Times in its Critic’s Pick review praised as “smart, compassionate, and angry.”  Domenica also called public attention to a certain movie star’s inappropriate behavior on the set of a certain Broadway musical revival in her viral essay “The Movie Star and Me.” Whether on stage or online, Domenica’s work is consistently brave and necessary.  Her sophomore play, someone spectacular, offers a fly-on-the-wall view of a grief support group. When their leader fails to show up for the weekly meeting, the group devolves into chaos, with each member examining their own haunting. Imbued with subtle suspense and surprising humor, someone spectacular brings a fresh edge to the therapy play while exploring grief with unflinching and authentic honesty. Also of note, her director Tatiana Pandiani is Argentinian American, so two Latina creatives will be leading a production that also features a predominately female creative and producing team.  For More Information: www.someonespectacularplay.com _______________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

From Carnegie Hall and Jazz at Lincoln Center to the Rainbow Room and Birdland Jazz Club, she has brought her incredible voice to lead Fleur Seule to delight audiences around the world. Fleur Seule is a retro jazz band with seven languages of repertoire and many classic styles of music, that transports audiences to their favorite musical memories. The Fleur Seule experience is a mixture of the most beloved music, with sounds of soothing Karen Carpenter and vibrant Ella Fitzgerald, to the infectious Peggy Lee and diverse Linda Ronstadt. Their range is unmatched and the joy they bring is contagious. See who Michael Feinstein calls “One of the most incredible talents out there today” and experience Fleur Seule for yourself. Allyson is fondly known by her fans as “The Glamour Girl of Jazz” and by her Latin fans as “La Rubia de la Salsa,” a nickname given to her at their debut salsa performance at La Marqueta in el barrio in Spanish Harlem. ALLYSON BRIGGS will release her new album Promises, Prayers, and Raindrops: Allyson Briggs Sings Burt Bacharach on Friday, July 12. It will be available on CD and in digital and streaming platforms. Briggs and her band Fleur Seule will celebrate the recording with a special concert at Birdland Theater on Tuesday, July 9. Tickets are available HERE. Promises, Prayers, and Raindrops features 20 tracks that created the soundtrack of American life in the 1960s, combining household-name Bacharach and David classics that have been making people smile for generations, with several catalog deep cuts that will thrill music aficionados. Briggs, serving as bandleader and star vocalist, is expertly supported by music director Andy Warren on trumpet, James Navan and Jason Yeager on piano, Michael O’Brien on bass, Shareef Taher and Peter Traunmueller on drums, and Broadway luminary Julie Benko (Funny Girl, Harmony) as guest vocalist. Purchase the album at www.fleurseule.com. Promises, Prayers, and Raindrops features Briggs’s subtle yet sophisticated interpretations which reinvigorate beloved hits “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again,” “I Say a Little Prayer,” “Walk on By,” and more. At the same time, the album digs deeper into the Bacharach oeuvre, including two songs associated with the iconic Peggy Lee. “My Rock and Foundation” was written by Bacharach and David specifically for Lee to sing on her 1971 album Where Did They Go.

]]> 1087 no Ep 234- Poet/Author TJ Armand Talks "Self Imposed Exile" Just In Time For Pride! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Award-winning Turkish-American writer, composer, and producer T.J. Armand - who recently produced the critically acclaimed albums for Tony award nominee Mary Bridget Davies and Windsor Castle’s resident sextet The Queen’s Six - unveils his debut poetry collection, "Self-Imposed Exile – Poems of Queer Beginnings." This evocative collection of 56 selected poems offers a candid exploration of Armand's formative years, capturing the raw essence of his journey as an immigrant and a young queer artist. Armand, whose diverse artistic portfolio spans three decades, was mentored by the late Grammy-winning producer Arif Mardin. He is a full-scholarship recipient from Berklee College of Music. Armand's multifaceted career includes notable concert productions with Chaka Khan, The Manhattan Transfer, and Tony nominee (for her role as Janis Joplin) Mary Bridget Davies. As a co-founder and Executive Director of Armand and Paiva LLC, he has invested in Tony-nominated shows such as "The Great Comet" starring Josh Groban, Stephen Sondheim’s "Merrily We Roll Along," and the currently in-development production of Virginia Woolf’s “A Room of One’s Own."  "Self-Imposed Exile – Poems of Queer Beginnings" delves into the politics of immigration, sexual identity, and the struggles of a young artist. Readers will find a deeply personal reflection of Armand's experiences—from the heartbreak of losing a beloved partner in 1994 to the challenges of mandatory military service, and the naïveté of his college years to the struggles of coming out in America. These poems present an unfiltered look at a young man's fight to carve out his identity. Compiled during the reflective period of the COVID-19 lockdown in New York City, the collection revisits the tumultuous and often humorous false starts of Armand's early life.   "Self-Imposed Exile – Poems of Queer Beginnings" is available now on Amazon!

]]> 2044 no Ep 232- Director Armani Ortiz Talks His New Music Video, Working For Tyler Perry, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Armani Ortiz, co-director of Tyler Perry’s documentary Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story, is back with an electric musical short film, EN EL BRONX PART 2, at the Tribeca Film Festival this year as part of the festival’s short film program. The short film, EN EL BRONX PART 2, is the continuation of his musical series “En El Bronx,” which Armani released in January 2021, set to the song “Del Mar” by Ozuna. Part 2 picks right back up where the magic of part 1 left off - we follow our two love interests through their wedding day, where we see the same tropes of love, jealousy, affection, rejection, and every emotion that emerges from the spectrum of heartache come to life through dance. Armani Ortiz, a Bronx-born Afro-Latino director, writer, and actor, effortlessly merges his unique perspective with exceptional talent and an unparalleled work ethic. As Tyler Perry boldly proclaimed, "Once the world can see what he can do, it’s going to blow some people’s minds." Armani's passion for film ignited during his childhood when his parents took him to Washington Heights' iconic Coliseum Cinema. Captivated by classics like "Back To The Future" and "Spider-Man: The Animated Series”, he nurtured a dream to direct from an early age. While at St. John’s University in Queens, NY, Armani transformed his dream into reality, investing $2,000 from his student loan to acquire his first camera. After graduating in 2012, Armani started his career working for Sean Combs’ newly launched, REVOLT TV. In a matter of months, Ortiz rose from intern to Combs’ personal director. Tyler Perry caught eye of Armani's private work with Combs and took him under his wing in 2015.  At Tyler Perry Studios since then, Armani has worn numerous hats, being the studio's sole talent to write, direct, and edit projects. His independent ventures include directing a thrilling Spider-Man concept trailer titled "NOIR," along with a short musical film "Del Mar (En El Bronx)," which garnered a staggering 28 million views. He also created, directed, and starred in the original series "Perimeter," wrapping in late 2022. Armani boasts a directorial portfolio spanning over 100 episodes of televised content. This is a must hear chat for any aspiring filmmakers out there! ________________________________________________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com or Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

Founded in Washington DC by a group of childhood friends, the band built a following in their hometown of Washington, D.C. on the strength of ecstatic live shows and a stream of releases. The band’s first release, 2016’s Same Train // Different Station, was recorded as the guys finished college, blending the pop-punk they grew up on with the indie-pop stylings of WALK THE MOON and The 1975. In 2017, Sub-Radio released a single per month from April to September, coinciding with a regional tour and an appearance at the Firefly Music Festival. Their two raucous sets at the festival exposed them to a wider audience, and the band’s next EP Headfirst was their best-performing release yet, including the popular beachy single “Flashback,” which has amassed 3 million streams across all platforms. Following the release of their 2020 EP Thoughts Lights Colors Sounds, produced by Andrew Maury (Shawn Mendes, Lizzo, COIN), the band embarked on a pandemic-induced “virtual tour,” live-streaming their energetic performances to more than 20 million viewers and building a worldwide community of fans. The band signed with indie label Th3rd Brain in early 2022, announcing a string of US tour dates in support of forthcoming new music. There new music is out!

]]> 1427 no Ep 219- Viral Singing Star Lainie Gardner & The Team DWG House Productions Are Here! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable From an early age, Lanie Gardner's gift for storytelling and songwriting blossomed, and she crafted a unique modern blend of classic rock and country influences into her art. Her career soared when her cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” garnered more than 100 million streams and video views across social media and even reached No. 25 on the Billboard Rock Chart. In April 2024 Lanie’s music video for her single “Six Feet Deep” was one of only 10 music videos accepted into the Tribeca Film Festival out of more than 8,000 submissions received. Lanie’s music video will be shown on the big screen for attendees of the prestigious film festival. As she continues to reach new levels of success as an artist, she remains hopeful to be a genre-defying seeker of positive impact on her family, friends and listeners throughout the world. When the trio of Ryan Hood, Jonathan Craig and Steven Webster came together and formed DWG House Productions in 2020, they had big dreams and goals. Even though the first project they landed was working with the iconic artist Jelly Roll, they knew competing against much larger companies and earning market share in their industry wouldn’t be easy. Since its founding just four years ago, DWG House Productions has had many reasons to celebrate but none like what they just accomplished this week. The Tribeca Film Festival this week announced their selections for the 2024 Festival to be held in NYC June 5th- 16th and among them is the trio’s “Six Feet Deep” featuring independent Recording Artist Lanie Gardner. Considered a major win in any year, this year is even more special as Tribeca announced they had received more nominations this year than any other year. In fact more than 8,000 shorts from xx countries were submitted and of those only 10 music videos were selected, one of them being “Six Feet Deep.” Not only is this a major accomplishment for the production team but for Gardner whose video is now in the company of other selected artists which include Bad Bunny, Conan Gray, Dua Lupa, Zach Bryan and The Black Crowes.

]]> 1234 no EP 216- The Man Behind LaDuca Shoes- Phil LaDuca Is Here To Talk Dance, Broadway, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Internationally acclaimed Shoe Designer, Broadway Performer/Choreographer/Master Class Dance Teacher Phil LaDuca has performed with, choreographed, sang, danced with, or designed for every major star in the industry for over the last forty years. The most recognized name in dance shoes is LaDuca. But before the shoes, there was Phil LaDuca, the performer, who went from classical ballet and contemporary dance, onto Broadway as a song and dance man, to ‘hoofing’ with the biggest stars onstage, offstage and the big screen. Phil began his early stage career singing in rock bands in Chicago before switching gears to a dance career studying classical ballet with the premier ballet masters, Bentley Stone and Walter Camryn, jazz with Lou Conte founder of Hubbard Street Dance Company, and contemporary with the Joel Hall Dancers.   On Broadway he appeared in “Brigadoon” for Agnes DeMille as a lead sword dancer (along side Jerry Mitchell), the “Pirates of Penzance” with Kevin Kline for Graciela Daniele and was the original understudy for the Gene Kelly role in “Singin’ In the Rain”for Twyla Tharp. Phil also toured in “Camelot” with Richard Harris, along with staring on tour in the lead role, of Bill Snibson in “Me and My Girl”. While in New York Phil first performed with American Dance Machine under the legendary Lee Theodore, working with such greats as Bob Fosse, Jerome Robbins, Ona White, Danny Daniels, Patricia Birch, Anne Reinking, Wayne Cilento and Chita Rivera. Later he began choreographing, directing and teaching master classes ‘around the world” –; choreographing jazz pieces in Amsterdam (with Mia Michaels), in Russia where he was dubbed the ‘Godfather of Jazz’ -  the first American jazz dance teacher in St. Petersburg, Russia *where in his honor they have opened up the “Phil LaDuca Broadway Dance Center”, as well as choreographing several pieces in Vienna for the Wien Opern Haus. Fulfilling another creative side, Phil created the international acclaimed LaDuca Shoes, crowned the “Shoemaker to the Stars”; designing shoes for the likes of Katy Perry, Meryl Streep, Taylor Swift, Emma Thompson, Hugh Jackman, Catherine Zeta Jones, Lea Salonga, Pink, Shania Twain, Penelope Cruz, Selena Gomez , Christina Aguilera, and most of the shows on Broadway and tour; Moulin Rouge, The Music Man, Wicked, Book of Mormon, Frozen, King Kong, The Cher Musical, Bandstand, An American in Paris, Kinky Boots, Matilda, Pippin, Sister Act, Annie, Anastasia, Radio City Christmas Spectacular, Aladdin; TV – Fosse/Verdon, Hairspray Live, So You Think You Can Dance, SMASH; Movies – The Eternals, The Prom, The Greatest Showman, La La Land, Chicago, Burlesque, NINE, Mamma Mia, Julie/Julia, Hail Caesar, working with such stars as Meryl Streep, Catherine Zeta Jones, Liza Minnelli, Cher, Arianna Grande, Antonio Banderas, Bette Midler, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Hudson, Sophia Loren, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Judith Dench, Glen Close, and Tatum Channing to name a few. Along with being the first, “Shoe commentator’ for Miss America in 2015, Phil is most proud of being bestowed a Drama Desk Award 2017 for, “Proving that character comes from the ground up, the designer’s innovative flexible dance shoes ensures that hoofers on any stage remain on point”.

Internationally acclaimed Shoe Designer, Broadway Performer/Choreographer/Master Class Dance Teacher Phil LaDuca has performed with, choreographed, sang, danced with, or designed for every major star in the industry for over the last forty years. The most recognized name in dance shoes is LaDuca. But before the shoes, there was Phil LaDuca, the performer, who went from classical ballet and contemporary dance, onto Broadway as a song and dance man, to ‘hoofing’ with the biggest stars onstage, offstage and the big screen. Phil began his early stage career singing in rock bands in Chicago before switching gears to a dance career studying classical ballet with the premier ballet masters, Bentley Stone and Walter Camryn, jazz with Lou Conte founder of Hubbard Street Dance Company, and contemporary with the Joel Hall Dancers.   On Broadway he appeared in “Brigadoon” for Agnes DeMille as a lead sword dancer (along side Jerry Mitchell), the “Pirates of Penzance” with Kevin Kline for Graciela Daniele and was the original understudy for the Gene Kelly role in “Singin’ In the Rain”for Twyla Tharp. Phil also toured in “Camelot” with Richard Harris, along with staring on tour in the lead role, of Bill Snibson in “Me and My Girl”. While in New York Phil first performed with American Dance Machine under the legendary Lee Theodore, working with such greats as Bob Fosse, Jerome Robbins, Ona White, Danny Daniels, Patricia Birch, Anne Reinking, Wayne Cilento and Chita Rivera. Later he began choreographing, directing and teaching master classes ‘around the world” –; choreographing jazz pieces in Amsterdam (with Mia Michaels), in Russia where he was dubbed the ‘Godfather of Jazz’ -  the first American jazz dance teacher in St. Petersburg, Russia *where in his honor they have opened up the “Phil LaDuca Broadway Dance Center”, as well as choreographing several pieces in Vienna for the Wien Opern Haus. Fulfilling another creative side, Phil created the international acclaimed LaDuca Shoes, crowned the “Shoemaker to the Stars”; designing shoes for the likes of Katy Perry, Meryl Streep, Taylor Swift, Emma Thompson, Hugh Jackman, Catherine Zeta Jones, Lea Salonga, Pink, Shania Twain, Penelope Cruz, Selena Gomez , Christina Aguilera, and most of the shows on Broadway and tour; Moulin Rouge, The Music Man, Wicked, Book of Mormon, Frozen, King Kong, The Cher Musical, Bandstand, An American in Paris, Kinky Boots, Matilda, Pippin, Sister Act, Annie, Anastasia, Radio City Christmas Spectacular, Aladdin; TV – Fosse/Verdon, Hairspray Live, So You Think You Can Dance, SMASH; Movies – The Eternals, The Prom, The Greatest Showman, La La Land, Chicago, Burlesque, NINE, Mamma Mia, Julie/Julia, Hail Caesar, working with such stars as Meryl Streep, Catherine Zeta Jones, Liza Minnelli, Cher, Arianna Grande, Antonio Banderas, Bette Midler, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Hudson, Sophia Loren, Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz, Judith Dench, Glen Close, and Tatum Channing to name a few. Along with being the first, “Shoe commentator’ for Miss America in 2015, Phil is most proud of being bestowed a Drama Desk Award 2017 for, “Proving that character comes from the ground up, the designer’s innovative flexible dance shoes ensures that hoofers on any stage remain on point”.

]]> 1349 Ep 208- A Deep Dive Into Encompass Theatre With Artistic Director Nancy Rhodes https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Hailed for “its commitment to musically and thematically adventurous new work (Opera News),” Manhattan’s leading activist opera company Encompass New Opera Theatre (ENOT) presents Unheard Voices: An Immigrant’s Dream—a matinee concert on Sunday, June 9, 2024, 3:00 p.m., at downtown Manhattan’s The Greene Space. Approaching its landmark 50th anniversary in 2026, ENOT continues to tell compelling stories through rare musical theater-opera productions. In Unheard Voices: An Immigrant’s Dream, ENOT brings a wide variety of perspectives on the immigrant experience while reflecting the ambition of ENOT to integrate opera with social activism. With ancestral voices from his indigenous roots, Salvadoran tenor Oswaldo Iraheta (pictured above) guides audiences to the heart of Central and South America with several passionate songs sung in both Spanish and English: the American premiere of Poemas Norteños, a folk song by Argentine composer Angel E. Lasala (1914-2000); El nido by contemporary Salvadoran composer Juan Guerra Gonzalez (b.1980); a musical journey crossing the Rio Grande with By the River by Maury Yeston (b.1945); I Stand Alone also by Yeston from the film Goya; and Polo by Spanish-Argentine composer Manuel de Falla (1876-1946), revealing the challenges of life in a new country.  A champion of new works and singers for over four decades, ENOT will premiere two pieces by composer Richard Pearson Thomas (b.1957) who is known for his robust catalog of American song settings. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (2004) is set to “Sympathy,” an 1899 poem written by Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872-1906), one of the most prominent African-American writers of his time. Dunbar wrote “Sympathy,” at least in part, because he was feeling “like he was trapped in a cage,” while working at the Library of Congress. Maya Angelou titled her autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings from a line in the poem. Featuring Thomas on the piano, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will showcase emerging soprano MaKayla McDonald (pictured above), who will also perform the powerful aria “To This We’ve Come” from Menotti’s opera, The Consul. Celebrating its world premiere is Thomas’s Alma Swansson’s Prayers (2024) for piano and cello. The composer reflects on his great grandmother as a young girl sent to America from Sweden in 1899 with only a note pinned to her jacket never to see her family again. This tribute expresses the courage, longing, and hope that transcends time and bridges all generations. Completing the program are performances by Sky Caravan—a duo known for performing Roma music from Eastern Europe. Ukrainian violinist Milena Dawidowicz and Russian pianist Elena Panova pay tribute to the Ukrainian community with John Williams’s Theme from Schindler’s List, and Melody by the Ukrainian composer Myroslav Skoryk (b.1938), a piece frequently described as a spiritual hymn of Ukraine, and has been used in commemorations of the Holodomor and the Revolution of Dignity. About Encompass New Opera Theatre Encompass New Opera Theatre, one of the nation’s leaders in championing new music theatre and American opera, is celebrating its 48th season dedicated to creating, developing, and producing adventurous productions.

Celebrating its world premiere is Thomas’s Alma Swansson’s Prayers (2024) for piano and cello. The composer reflects on his great grandmother as a young girl sent to America from Sweden in 1899 with only a note pinned to her jacket never to see her family again. This tribute expresses the courage, longing, and hope that transcends time and bridges all generations. Completing the program are performances by Sky Caravan—a duo known for performing Roma music from Eastern Europe. Ukrainian violinist Milena Dawidowicz and Russian pianist Elena Panova pay tribute to the Ukrainian community with John Williams’s Theme from Schindler’s List, and Melody by the Ukrainian composer Myroslav Skoryk (b.1938), a piece frequently described as a spiritual hymn of Ukraine, and has been used in commemorations of the Holodomor and the Revolution of Dignity.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Hailed for “its commitment to musically and thematically adventurous new work (Opera News),” Manhattan’s leading activist opera company Encompass New Opera Theatre (ENOT) presents Unheard Voices: An Immigrant’s Dream—a matinee concert on Sunday, June 9, 2024, 3:00 p.m., at downtown Manhattan’s The Greene Space. Approaching its landmark 50th anniversary in 2026, ENOT continues to tell compelling stories through rare musical theater-opera productions. In Unheard Voices: An Immigrant’s Dream, ENOT brings a wide variety of perspectives on the immigrant experience while reflecting the ambition of ENOT to integrate opera with social activism.

With ancestral voices from his indigenous roots, Salvadoran tenor Oswaldo Iraheta (pictured above) guides audiences to the heart of Central and South America with several passionate songs sung in both Spanish and English: the American premiere of Poemas Norteños, a folk song by Argentine composer Angel E. Lasala (1914-2000); El nido by contemporary Salvadoran composer Juan Guerra Gonzalez (b.1980); a musical journey crossing the Rio Grande with By the River by Maury Yeston (b.1945); I Stand Alone also by Yeston from the film Goya; and Polo by Spanish-Argentine composer Manuel de Falla (1876-1946), revealing the challenges of life in a new country. 

A champion of new works and singers for over four decades, ENOT will premiere two pieces by composer Richard Pearson Thomas (b.1957) who is known for his robust catalog of American song settings. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (2004) is set to “Sympathy,” an 1899 poem written by Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872-1906), one of the most prominent African-American writers of his time. Dunbar wrote “Sympathy,” at least in part, because he was feeling “like he was trapped in a cage,” while working at the Library of Congress. Maya Angelou titled her autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings from a line in the poem. Featuring Thomas on the piano, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings will showcase emerging soprano MaKayla McDonald (pictured above), who will also perform the powerful aria “To This We’ve Come” from Menotti’s opera, The Consul.

Known best for her Tony nominated performance in the Roundabout Theatre Company revival of She Loves Me, People Magazine describes Mayes as “the kind of rich theatrical voice that elevates a show tune.” The original Keely of the cult musical Pete ‘n’ Keely realized she has a lot of great arrangements, a plethora of stories, and a desire to sing ALL of them. She has run the gamut with her theatrical concerts and recordings from Broadway, jazz, and country, to pop and the American Songbook. Now is going to “sing ‘em all and stay here all night.” She will be joined by music director Tedd Firth on piano, Michael O’Brien on bass, Jessica Wright on violin and vocals, and Carolyn Montgomery on vocals.  Her concert series will conclude with “Now and Then: The Great Big Huge Broadway” on Thursday, June 20 at 7:00 PM.

On Broadway, Sally is perhaps best known for her performance in the Roundabout Theater revival of She Loves Me, for which she won Tony, Drama Desk, and Outer Critics Circle nominations. Sally appeared as Aunt Corene in Urban Cowboy (Drama Desk nomination). She drew raves as Mae West in the national tour of Dirty Blonde and also appeared in the Broadway revival of Steel Magnolias.

Grammy Nominee Tony Orlando has sold millions of records, including Five #1 hit records: “Tie A Yellow Ribbon ‘Round The Ole Oak Tree,” “Knock Three Times,” “Candida,” “My Sweet Gypsy Rose” and “He Don’t Love You (Like I Love You).” He has 2 Platinum and 3 Gold albums and 15 Top 40 Hits. “Tie A Yellow Ribbon” was the #1 Billboard Song of Year 1973 and became Orlando’s theme song and grew into an American anthem of hope, homecoming, and renewal.

Tony was honored to be inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame at the New Jersey Performing Arts center on October 29th, 2023. Orlando kicked off his sixty years in music and entertainment with a series of new projects, including the hosting of “Saturday Nights with Tony Orlando” on 77WABC Music Radio, which airs from 10pm to Midnight and streams worldwide on WABCMUSICRADIO.COM, and the release of “Timeless: The Big Hits” CD (via Time Life), features re-recorded versions of his million-selling songs as well as a bonus track, “America Is My Hometown.”

Tony debuted the new track on 77WABC Music Radio during his weekly radio program, which was also the first station to play Orlando’s debut single, “Halfway to Paradise” when in his teens Tony was the first vocal pop artist to sign with Epic Records and hit the national music charts in 1961.

When an eventual successor to President Boris Yeltsin is needed, Berezovsky turns to the little-known deputy mayor of St. Petersburg, Vladimir Putin. But soon Putin’s ruthless rise threatens Berezovsky’s reign, setting off a riveting, near-Shakespearean confrontation between the two powerful, fatally flawed men. Tony® and Emmy® Award nominee Michael Stuhlbarg stars as Berezovsky and Will Keen reprises his Olivier Award-winning turn as Putin in PATRIOTS, a shockingly timely history play from Peter Morgan, creator of “The Crown.” Don’t miss this strictly limited engagement of Olivier Award winner Rupert Goold’s kinetic, exhilarating production, which reveals to us all how Russia's post-Soviet machinations continue to shape our world to this day.

Presented on Sunday nights at 7:00 PM, the series will start with “Autumn in New York: Vernon Duke’s Broadway” on April 14, followed by “One of the Girls: The Words and Music of Jerry Herman” on May 5. After a summer hiatus, the series resumes with “Dreaming of a Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael” featuring Billy Stritch, on September 15, “An Evening with Klea Blackhurst” on October 20, and concluding with a reprise of Blackhurst’s most-requested evening, “Everything the Traffic Will Allow: The Songs and Sass of Ethel Merman,” on November 10. “The Box Set” gives Klea’s longtime followers the chance to revisit this outstanding body of work, while also allowing new generation of theater and music fans to discover them. Tickets to each show are $20-$40, in addition to a service charge and a two-item food and beverage minimum. A livestream option is available for all shows at $20 each. CHELSEA TABLE + STAGE is located at 152 West 26th Street. Sunday, April 14 at 7:00 PM “AUTUMN IN NEW YORK – VERNON DUKE’S BROADWAY” Vernon Duke was the creator of such indisputable standards as “April in Paris” and “Autumn in New York.” His legacy as a Broadway composer ultimately rests on 1940’s Cabin in the Sky, but there are countless musical treasures written throughout his career – songs from Banjo Eyes, starring Eddie Cantor and Dancing in the Streets, starring Mary Martin. There’s even a curious meeting at the intersection of Vernon Duke and Ethel Merman – Sadie Thompson. Blackhurst has created a lively show devoted to possibly the only composer to dine regularly with Prokofiev and Gershwin. The show features arrangements by music director Michael Rice.  Klea Blackhurt is an actress, singer and comedienne who has appeared in legendary concert venues from The London Palladium to Carnegie Hall, the Royal Albert Hall to Jazz at Lincoln Center and with symphony orchestras from Atlanta to Boston, Pittsburgh to Philly. Most recently she appeared as Emma Goldman in Ragtime: The Symphonic Concert at Tanglewood with the Boston Pops and conductor Keith Lockhart. As well as Ragtime: The Symphonic Concert with the Cincinnati Pops under the direction of John Morris Russell. Her New York theater credits include Party Face opposite Hayley Mills, Bingo, Radio Gals, Oil City Symphony, and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Her television appearances include “Pose,” “The Knick,” two seasons on “The Onion News Network” as legal pundit Shelby Cross, “Law & Order” SVU,” and “Sesame Street.” Last season, Klea appeared at the Ogunquit Playhouse where she continues her long association with The Nutty Professor, a new musical by Rupert Holmes and the late Marvin Hamlisch. Originally directed by legendary comedian Jerry Lewis, the show continues its bid for a Broadway run under the direction of Marc Bruni. Klea is a distinguished Alumna of the University of Utah. She is also a proud member of Mendez Boxing Harlem where she is known as The Belter.

Based on a true story about finding his roots, "Ritornato" was shot entirely on location in Limina, Sicily, the hometown of his Grandfather Agatino Alibrandi. "Ritornato" went on to win many film festivals worldwide and was one of the only American films selected for the prestigious Taormina Film Festival in 2020. It continues to touch people worldwide. Recently, "Ritornato" was chosen as the closing night film at the New Orleans Italian Film Festival.

]]> 3348 no Ep 151- Music Superstar Grace Potter & Director Alison Tavel Talk "The Resynator" Now At SXSW https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Full disclosure- we love Grace Potter. When we saw her name as an Executive Producer, we were in. Her epic records, live shows, and those vocals are thing of legend. Then we were sent the movie. Alison Tavel is breaking down all the vulnerability and sharing her heart, family, and story in the most touching and profound way with "The Resynator" now selected at the SXSW Festival. Inventor Don Tavel died suddenly when his newborn daughter was just ten weeks old. Growing up surrounded by mythical stories of her “genius” father, Alison’s life is consequently absent from any meaningful connection to him. Not until she is in her mid-twenties and on tour with rock musician Grace Potter is the seed planted to discover what he invented. Resynator is a narrative documentary that begins when Alison rescues Don’s synthesizer prototype from her grandmother’s attic. What starts off as a curious resurrection project of her dad’s Resynator soon launches into an insatiable, globe-trotting quest to untangle the web of myths and unlock the deep secrets surrounding his life and invention. Aided by estranged family, lost friends, fellow inventors and celebrated musicians (Grace Potter, Peter Gabriel, Fred Armisen, Gotye, Jon Anderson and more), Alison soon comes to discover Don’s brilliance herself. But in unpacking his life, she also discovers unsettling truths about her father that don't align with her long-held perception of him, as the picture of a vulnerable man emerges to replace the superhero version she had imagined all her life. Not only can she finally relate to him on a human level, but their parallel Resynator journeys reveal an indomitable bond between them.

]]> 2214 no Ep 146- Natalie Douglas, Cabaret Superstar, Talks Her Beautiful New Album, "Back To The Garden" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We are such fans of Natalie Douglas! That voice! Those arrangements! All she stands for- we are FANS! We had the chance to have a special in-depth chat about her new album "Back To The Garden" now streaming! Back to the Garden is a potent mix of golden age standards, pop gems of the Woodstock generation, and special surprises. Highlights include a vivacious big band arrangement of the Cole Porter classic “Begin the Beguine;” a tender, lilting version on the ballad “You’ll Never Know,” with a sensuous string arrangement; a charming jazz age take on the Kern, Hammerstein and Harbach gem “Who?;” and a driving rock-inspired interpretation of Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock.” The emotional centerpiece of the album is “Love Is the Power That Heals Me,” a soaring anthem written just for Natalie by Club44 label co-founders Wayne Haun and Joel Lindsey. “The lyrics feel so very me,” Natalie reflects. “This song is brand new and sounds completely 21st century, but it has some of that mid-century flavor that I first heard in my parents’ record collection. I will always be an unabashed fan of clear, full-throated singing and direct, romantic lyrics.” The album’s buried treasure is “He Lives in a World of His Own,” a majestic song with the seductive build of a vintage James Bond theme, written by Lionel Bart, the Tony Award-winning creator of the stage musical Oliver! Natalie discovered it while researching her tribute to the iconic Dame Shirley Bassey. Bart wrote this as special material for Bassey’s audition for Oliver!’s tragic heroine, Nancy. Even though the role ultimately went to to Georgia Brown, history has left us with this showstopper for Natalie to unearth. “Trust in Me” originates from the beloved Disney movie The Jungle Book. “I was obsessed with The Jungle Book as a child!,” Natalie recalls. “I swear I drove my parents batty singing the songs incessantly! When it came time to create this album, I couldn’t resist the chance to take ‘Trust in Me’ in a whole different direction. I love how the lyric promises safety and comfort, but the music lets you know there’s an undercurrent of danger. That’s what brings out the sex in this song – even though it’s meant for children. Genius!” Natalie’s version of “Work Song” is an homage to Nina Simone, whom she previously honored with a full album. “Nina is my inspiration in all things,” she comments. “She was brilliant, ferocious, resilient, utter genius, so I’ll never tire of singing her material. I was all in when Wayne suggested re-recording this, which I first sang on the 2005 recording of my Nina Simone show at Birdland. I will always love that live performance – we had such a blast! And now it makes me so happy to re-record a brass-centric version of this song all these years later.” Back to the Garden closes with her heartfelt rendition of “True Colors,” popularized by Cyndi Lauper in the ‘80s. “This song means so much to those of us who’ve felt unseen or unwelcome in this world,” Natalie concludes. “Cyndi Lauper is that fusion of artist and activist that is vital to creative life. The world has made progress in the almost 40 years since this song came out, but there are forces working overtime to return us to the Dark Ages, when anyone not straight, not white, not cis or not gentile, wasn’t truly safe or fully a citizen. It feels important to record our version of this song right now.” Stream the album wherever music is heard!  _______________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

That is where Amber Akhtar comes in! She wrote a new short called "Cycle" that is getting raves! Cycle is a short film written by Amber Akhtar, a 22-year-old filmmaker who grew up in Michigan. She just finished her BFA in Dramatic Writing with a minor in Producing at NYU Tisch. During her time at NYU, she wrote two features and many short films and worked on a thesis film selected for Tribeca 2022. She has interned for companies such as The Gotham Film and TV, Cinetic Media, and The Producers Guild. When asked what motivated her to write this film, Amber said, “Cycle touches on issues of reproductive rights, sexual assault, generational trauma, and substance abuse. Centering around abortion, the short explores the shame of such a stigmatized topic and the struggle for women to be seen and heard authentically. I hope it serves as a reminder that it’s okay to ask for help, and women are not alone at their most vulnerable moments. It’s a lesson I am still learning myself and intend to put into practice for the rest of my life.” _______________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 1434 no Ep 139- The Brains Behind The New Musical Album "Whisper Darkly" Are Here! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We love dance, immersive theatre, and creative fun people! If you do to, this one is for you! TBIC Music Group will release a concept album of the new immersive electro-swing musical Whisper Darkly – the first musical written in the retro-inspired genre – on Friday, February 23. To mark the anniversary of the start of Prohibition, a special preview dance mix from the album will be released on Wednesday, January 17. Whisper Darkly features music and lyrics by Andrew Gerle (Meet John Doe, Glory, Mississippi) and book by DJ Salisbury (Moonshine and Mistletoe, The Man Who Would Be King). The album is produced by Andrew Gerle and PiSk (Roberto Costa). Pre-save the single HERE. Whisper Darkly’s electro-swing score highlights the hugely popular international genre that combines the joy and sophistication of ’20s and ’30s jazz and Vaudeville with the infectious sounds of 21st Century EDM beats. This concept album has brought together actors and musicians from the top echelons of Broadway, jazz and electro-swing to create a show that is part 1920s, part 2020s, and entirely new. In Whisper Darkly, it’s once again 1928 and the audience are patrons of Manhattan’s notorious speakeasy, the Hush Club. The proprietress, Topeka McShane, leads her cast of chorines, comics, and dancers with an iron fist, while teaching her niece, Evie, the ropes of big city life. When international African-American singing sensation Wysandria Cole Davis shows up in the audience, it kicks off a tumultuous evening that leaves the club and its denizens forever changed. To help create the album’s fifteen tracks, the creators enlisted the help of pioneering electro-swing arranger and producer PiSk (Roberto Costa) of the popular Italian electro-swing band The Swingrowers, and Bogotá-based Latin Grammy Award nominee Santiago Deluchi. The cast stars Aléna Watters (The Cher Show), Kayla Davion (Tina), Keri René Fuller (Six: The Musical), Tony Award nominees Brad Oscar (The Producers) and Howard McGillin (The Phantom of the Opera), Alli Mauzey (Kimberly Akimbo), Claybourne Elder (Company), and the West End’s Alistair Brammer (Miss Saigon). Also featured are Victoria Huston-Elem, Riley Noland, Graham Stevens, Hansel Tan, Khalifa White, D’Kaylah Whitley, and Luke Hawkins.  The album’s jazz band includes Grammy Award-nominated violinist Sara Caswell; one of Modern Drummer’s top up-and-coming drummers in the world, Josh Roberts; trumpeter Alphonso Horne (Shuffle Along, Count Basie Orchestra); and Italian accordion virtuoso Roberto Gervasi. _______________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon   Learn more about your ad choices.

Off-Broadway is where all the cool kids hang out! We have some stars with us today! We are talking to Gabby Beans, who is going to be a superstar & Playwright Rachel Bonds with us! Off-Broadway’s buzziest new play Jonah is “always fascinating—an experiment in disorientation that is never less than very absorbing thanks to writer Rachel Bonds’ extraordinary gift for language” (The Wrap). This New York Times Critic’s Pick “is the kind of play that reveals itself slowly but entirely, without undermining its own considerable power by wrapping anything up neatly.” Ana is away at school, far from home and deeply alone. When she meets Jonah, everything she's longed for begins falling into place—except that Jonah is not all he seems. What begins as an exploration of thrilling desire shifts into more complex negotiations of intimacy and survival that will keep you guessing until its final twisting moments.

]]> 932 Ep 126- Sweetie Pie Herself! Ms. Robbie Is Here To Talk Her New Single "Boss Lady" Now Streaming! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Robbie Montgomery, often referred to as Ms. Robbie, is an esteemed American soul singer and restaurateur, who earned the title "Queen of Soul Food." Initially an Ikette, she later joined the Mirettes and became a part of Dr. John's "Night Trippers" in the 1970s. Montgomery's career also included providing backing vocals for legendary artists such as Stevie Wonder, Barbra Streisand, the Rolling Stones, and Joe Cocker. Suffering a collapsed lung and forced to stop singing, she decided to pour her talents into another creative venture, a soul food restaurant called Sweetie Pies. She later created the award-winning reality series, "Welcome to Sweetie Pie's", alongside her son Tim Norman, focusing on Montgomery running her soul food restaurant, airing on the Oprah Winfrey Network for 8 seasons. She is now reinventing herself with a new blues album on the way. She shares a message of never giving up on your dreams. "I was in my 70's when my dreams came true, and I was blessed to come into your homes on the tv screen." She's gone from the stage to the television screen and is now back on the stage to share her talents once again. "BOSS LADY" was written by Robbie Montgomery and Latoya Sharen and produced by Robbie Montgomery and Avyon. "Boss Lady' is more than just a song; it's an anthem of empowerment, a resonating echo of my own journey. This song speaks to the heart of being strong, embodying courage, and chasing your dreams with relentless passion. It's about rising as a go-getter, embracing your power, and becoming whatever you aspire to be in life. 'Boss Lady' is not just music; it's a testimony to the strength and resilience every woman holds within," mentions Ms. Robbie. The visuals to "BOSS LADY" were directed by Craig Thomas. "I wanted to show my fans a window into my world, where you see me doing everything that brings joy to my heart. Music, family, and inspiring the next generation of ladies. It's a reminder to every woman that our lives can be as rich and fulfilling as we dare to dream," she adds. Ms. Robbie is currently in the studio working on her upcoming Blues album, to be released later this year. _______________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 987 no Ep 125- Tony WInner Vocal Superstar Melba Moore Comes Back To NY For A Special Event! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Melba Moore, who has starred on Broadway, in film and on television, found ways to entertain herself while being entertained by the new activities and innovations that developed during the pandemic. But few were as innovative as DJ D-Nice’s “Club Quarantine,” a livestream of his skills on the turntables that draw millions of viewers, earned him The NAACP Image Award for Entertainer of the Year in 2021 and helped many of us endure the monotony of being sheltered in place. The virtual dance party not only drew the likes of President and Mrs. Obama but Oprah Winfrey, Halle Berry, President Joe Biden and almost every actor, activist and artist known to mankind, breaking Instagram’s LIVE feed and forcing the platform to modify its capacity. And at that Club Quarantine Party, D-Nice played hits and shouted out notables as they entered the party. But when he dropped the needle on Ms. Moore’s 1978 dance classic You Stepped Into My Life, the room erupted with excitement and those in attendance were quick to bring his attention that “MELBA MOORE IS IN HERE!” D-Nice called out her name and celebrated her presence and introduced a new generation to an icon. Melba Moore has done it all, twice. At the tender age of 10, Melba notes that it was then that she was introduced to music and that “I didn’t have any music in my life before my mother married my stepfather. He introduced music into our home and into my life.” From that moment forward, Melba began to develop her 5-octave, note-holding soprano that would soon bring audiences to their feet. The Newark, NJ Arts High School graduate started doing recording sessions after a chance meeting with singer/songwriter/composer Valerie Simpson (of Ashford & Simpson). That opportunity in the studio led Melba in the company of the Broadway musical “HAIR!” First in the ensemble of the show, Melba’s name was tossed into the conversation when actress Diane Keaton left the show and Melba took the female lead and broke all the rules, being the first Black woman to replace a white actress in a featured role on Broadway. Melba Moore, the Tony Award-winning, Grammy Award nominated siren, has commanded stages around the world and who has conquered Broadway in memorable roles in HAIR (1967), PURLIE (1970) and became the first Black woman to inhabit the role of Fantine in LES MISERABLES (1995), also used the pandemic period of reflection to work on new music with her sweetest collaborator and greatest creation, her daughter Charli Huggins, who also happens to the head of The Gallery Entertainment, her own independent label. The label is set to release IMAGINE, Melba Moore’s 2022 project featuring new music and a return to her R&B roots. She is the epitome of an entertainer and a consummate performer. Honored with the likes of Diana Ross, Patti Labelle and Nancy Wilson, Melba Moore was among those who were celebrated at Oprah’s now historic Legends Ball.  See her at 54 Below this March!

Steven Pasquale makes his "Roundtable" debut! Center Stage Records announced Steven Pasquale: Some Other Time, the sophomore album from Broadway’s leading baritone, is available digitally today at www.CenterStageRecords.com and on all platforms. “Some Other Time” showcases Pasquale's "generational voice" and the incomparable jazz guitar playing of John Pizzarelli as they bring ten iconic American songbook tunes to life. The ten standards featured on “Some Other Time” represent the essence of the great American songbook, capturing the timeless melodies and heartfelt lyrics that have made these songs beloved for generations. Pasquale pays homage to the golden era of jazz with his rich and captivating voice – it's no secret this is Broadway's leading baritone – and Pizzarelli compliments him perfectly with his truly singular guitar playing,. Listeners can expect to be transported back in time as Pasquale and Pizzarelli effortlessly guided us through classics such as “Stardust”, “Smile”, “The Impossible Dream”, and “When I Fall In Love”.

]]> 1990 no Ep 120- "Glory Days" Writers Nick Blaemire and James Gardiner Talk Musicals Ahead Of Their Time! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We are talking music, musicals, and shows that have a cult following because they were ahead of their time! NIck Blaemire and James Gardiner are here to talk "Glory Days" coming to NY for one night only! Keen Company, a Drama Desk and Obie Award-winning Off-Broadway theater creating stories that celebrate the complexities of hope and the joys of connection, is thrilled to announce complete casting for its upcoming benefit concert of Glory Days by Nick Blaemire and James Gardiner. Jordan Dobson (Bad Cinderella, Hadestown) and George Salazar (Keen’s Tick, Tick…BOOM!, Be More Chill, Godspell) join Tony nominees Derek Klena (Moulin Rouge, Jagged Little Pill, Anastasia) and Colton Ryan (New York, New York; Dear Evan Hansen) in this one-night-only event directed by Keen Company’s Artistic Director Jonathan Silverstein featuring new musical arrangements by Van Hughes. The concert takes place on Monday, February 12, 2024 at 7pm at Peter Norton Symphony Space (2537 Broadway, Manhattan). Tickets, which start at $25, are currently on sale at www.keencompany.org.  A cult-favorite, coming of age rock musical, Glory Days premiered at Circle in the Square Theatre on Broadway in 2008 and has since been performed all over the world. This benefit concert, with music direction by Lily Ling, reflects Keen Company’s efforts to champion small scale intimate musicals with a large emotional impact. Composer and lyricist Nick Blaemire is familiar to Keen Company audiences from his star turn as Jonathan Larson in their acclaimed 2016 production of Tick, Tick… BOOM! Glory Days tells the story of four high school friends who meet up at their alma mater one year after graduation to reconnect, crush a few beers, and enact revenge on their former bullies in the form of an elaborate prank. But the guys quickly discover that a lot can change in a year — even the people they thought they knew best. This vibrant, energetic musical about friendship and fulfillment invites us to reminisce on our own heydays gone by and encourages us to live like the best is yet to come. Nick Blaemire and James Gardiner remarked, “We’re so excited to be taking another look at Glory Days. When we started writing it, back in high school, 20 years ago...!, we envisioned a simple show like The Fantasticks, Suburbia, or Our Town –- one we could produce with just a band and a bench. Keen Company excels at that kind of intimate storytelling. We're lucky to have four of the most exciting actors and singers in New York. Symphony Space is a legendary venue. So it's an honor to introduce this show to the next generation with these wonderful collaborators.” Proceeds from this special event underwrite Keen Company’s 24th Season including the Off-Broadway premiere of Kia Corthron’s Fish, a new intimate musical commission by Adam Gwon, resources for mid-career writers, and free theater mentorship for students in all five boroughs of NYC.

]]> 1559 no Ep 115- Actor, Singer, & Artist Darwin Del Fabro Talks Their New Album! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Brazilian-born, New York-based vocalist and actor Darwin Del Fabro is released their debut album, Revisiting Elis Regina – honoring the iconic Brazilian vocalist – on January 26. Madalena Music released Revisiting Elis Regina – the debut album Brazilian-born, New York-based singer and actor Darwin Del Fabro – in streaming and digital formats on Friday, January 26.  Del Fabro, who uses he/they pronouns, is best known for Blumhouse Productions’ acclaimed slasher film They/Them, directed by three-time Oscar nominee John Logan. Singing in Portuguese, Del Fabro reinvents classic songs of the iconic Brazilian singer Elis Regina (1945-1982), using a sophisticated and understated vocal delivery with powerful emotional currents and ethereal flourishes, supported by elegantly subtle strings and brass. Revisiting Elis Regina is produced by two-time Latin Grammy Award-nominated pianist, singer and arranger Delia Fischer, who also serves as music director. The album’s first single, “Velha Roupa Colorida,” is out now. Find the song here bit.ly/darwinpresave Elis Regina, considered among South America’s pioneering and influential vocalists; according to The New York Times, she “was Brazil’s Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan and Linda Ronstadt rolled into one. She discovered and encouraged the finest songwriters in Brazilian popular music, and she taught the next generations of singers the combination of lightness and sensuality, supple rhythms and melting emotion.” Regina’s legacy was recently highlighted in the lauded documentary, Elis & Tom: It Had to Be You, which was released in theaters last fall after making a splash in the 2023 AFI Latin American Film Festival.  Del Fabro – like Regina, born in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul – comments, “Elis helped to teach me to take ownership of myself, to be free. I was enchanted by this woman who went against the standards of her time. She was small and wore her hair short. She was delicate, but also quite rough…. Elis was everything at the same time.”  Darwin Del Fabro is a veteran of Brazil’s celebrated musical theater scene, having performed in Fiddler on the Roof and The Wizard of Oz. Del Fabro debuted on Brazilian TV in 2016 playing Collete D’Or in Globo TV’s mini-series adaptation of the beloved book, Tony Award-winning play and Oscar-winning film Dangerous Liaisons, starring Brazilian actress Patricia Pillar and actor Selton Mello. Before moving to New York, he was seen in the soap opera “Novo Mundo” (2017), also on Globo TV.  In the United States, Del Fabro received rave reviews for their performance as Dominic in Real at The Tank. Also in New York, he starred as Adam in The Feather Doesn’t Fall Far from The Tree at the Signature Theater and as Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. As a musician, he debuted at the 54 Below with the sold-out show “Darwin Del Fabro in NY,” which included hits of Antônio Carlos Jobim and Frank Sinatra, among others. Del Fabro is one of the protagonists in the LGBTQIA+ slasher film, They/Them, currently streaming on Peacock. The film – which marks the directorial debut of the Tony Award and Golden Globe-winning screenwriter and playwright John Logan (Gladiator, The Aviator, Skyfall, Red) – tells the story of queer empowerment set in a gay conversion camp. The cast also includes Kevin Bacon, Anna Chlumsky, and Carrie Preston. Del Fabro has released two EPs: Revisiting Jobim, Parts 1 and 2, which explore the immortal songs of Antônio Carlos Jobim, with songs including “Wave,” “Desafinado,” and “Água de Beber,” among many others. ____________________________________________ Check out “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon” everyday right here on The Broadway Podcast Network! www.RobertBannon.com Follow on IG @RobertMBannon or @theroundtablewithrobertbannon Learn more about your ad choices.

Billboard chart-topping group, Kenny Lewis & One Voice just released their newest single, “Call His Name” featuring Kim Burrell both in radio edit and hymnal form. This is the first single released from their upcoming album, “The Healing Project”, which is set to be released later this year. Both versions of the song were written by Kenny Lewis and produced by Kenny Lewis and Ay’Ron Lewis. The full album is geared to have a strong focus on mental health within the Body of Christ.  This is not the first collaboration between Lewis and Burrell. In 2022 they released the hit song, “Victory” that was a smash hit on radio and Billboard. “Call His Name” is a stylistically jazzy groove that highlights the vocal prowess of One Voice that fans adore. Kenny Lewis & One Voice are celebrating their 25th year as a group this year and their trajectory is expected to reach even higher heights. Lewis’s last album, Undefeated, acquired massive success with over 20 million streams and the album’s lead single, “He’s Been Good” featuring Charles Jenkins, hit #1 on Billboard! The album also garnered the group a nomination for “Contemporary Choir of the Year” from the prestigious Stellar Awards in 2021.  Both the radio single and the hymnal version of “Call His Name” are now available on all digital streaming platforms. _______________________________________________ LIKE.

]]> 1707 no Ep 109- Writer Max Wolf Friedlich & Director Michael Herwitz Talk "JOB THE PLAY" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Playwright Max Wolf Friedlich’s critically-acclaimed psychological thriller JOB (New York Times Critics’ Pick) is back by popular demand, playing January 19–March 3, 2024 at the Connelly Theatre, following a sold-out, twice-extended and buzzed about run last fall at SoHo Playhouse. He is here with Director Michael Herwitz to talk about the ride and journey!  Imbued with Friedlich’s multifaceted intellect, JOB is “a slick, cleverly crafted drop-tower ride” (New York Magazine); and “filled with so many ideas that it seems to expand beyond the walls of the tiny SoHo Playhouse” (NYT). In JOB, Jane (Sydney Lemmon) has come to crisis therapist Loyd’s (Peter Friedman) office in an attempt to be reinstated at her (unnamable, but you know the one) big tech job after a freakout that went viral and landed her on medical leave.  Friedlich’s searing portrayal of internet culture and generational divide are informed by his past life as a social media ghost writer. He voiced celebrities and influencers alike (see his fictional influencer, Lil Miquela, one of TIME’s 25 Most Influential People on the Internet, 2018), and shouldered the backlash of their actions. Embraced by everyone from Gen Z-ers, to seasoned, devout theatre-goers, to tech bros, Friedlich’s work is cracking open audience demographics; “to find out exactly what hellish depths it plummets to, you have to see it” (New York Magazine).

]]> 1902 no Ep 108- Chris Jackson, Brandon Victor Dixon, & More At "The Paul Rudd Bowling Fundraiser" For Say.Org! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We had a BLAST! SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young’s Paul Rudd’s 10th Annual All-Star Bowling Benefit was held on Monday, January 22, 2024 at 7:00pm at Frames Bowling Lounge in New York, NY. The event, which raises funds in support of SAY’s life-changing programming for young people who stutter promises to be a star-studded night of beautiful music, great friends, special performances, a cocktail reception, and bowling fun. We caught up with Christopher Jackson, Brandon Victor Dixon, Camryn Manheim, Greg Jbara, Zach Justice, and so many more live on the red carpet! This year is especially exciting for SAY as they commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the All-Star Bowling Event and celebrate over $1.5 million dollars raised for over the past 10 years through the annual event. SAY continues to give hope to thousands of families by providing support, advocacy, and life-changing programs for young people who stutter, ages 3-18. Proceeds from this year’s event will help SAY provide vital programming for kids and teens who stutter, including Camp SAY, a 2-week summer camp, speech therapy, and Confident Voices creative arts curriculum. “SAY continues to provide life-changing and life-saving programs for an all-too-often overlooked and underserved population of kids in need,” says SAY’s Executive Director, Noah Cornman.“We rely on our community of supporters and friends, like Paul Rudd, to ensure that we’re able to be there for the kids of SAY. This Bowling Benefit raises crucial funds, which allow us to help so many children from families in need.” Over 80 million people stutter worldwide, including 5% of all children. ‘Young people who stutter often face daily ridicule, teasing and bullying, and resort to silence to hide their stutter. Many will withdraw from peers, teachers, and society, leaving them feeling isolated and alone,’ adds Travis Robertson, SAY’s Vice President and Camp Director. ‘Events like Paul Rudd’s Bowling Benefit help kids and teens understand that nothing should hold them back from anything they dream of doing.’ The Stuttering Association for the Young is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides support, advocacy and life-changing experiences for young people who stutter, ages 8-18. Since 2001, SAY has offered comprehensive and innovative programs that address the physical, social, and emotional impacts of stuttering. Through summer camp, regional day camps, speech therapy and creative arts programming, SAY builds a community of acceptance, friendship, and encouragement where young people who stutter can develop the confidence and communication skills they need to thrive. This year alone, SAY will underwrite over $2,000,000 in program costs to ensure that all families in need can access its vital programs. To date, no child has ever been turned away due to a family’s inability to pay. _______________________________________________ LIKE. COMMENT. SUBSCRIBE!

]]> 1347 no Ep 107- "Candied Camera" Star & NY Nightlife Legend Nora Burns Stops By! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable La MaMa will present “Candied Camera LIVE!” – Nora Burns’ tongue-in-chic variety show (think “The Comeback” meets Spinal Tap) with guests, monologues, a multi-media mix of video clips and, of course, go-go boys – at the newly renovated The Club @ La Mama for four shows, Thursday, February 1 though Sunday, February 4. “Candied Camera LIVE!” is a celebration of Burns’ “legendary” (her word) early ‘90s public access broadcast. To celebrate the show’s 30th Anniversary and jump on the 1990s nostalgia bandwagon, Burns is bringing back her “iconic” (her word) cable program for a weekend extravaganza complete with a potpourri of original clips, documentary footage, forced appearances, legendary performances, and vintage pornography. “Candied Camera LIVE!” was created by Nora Burns (David’s Friend, Unitard) and directed and edited by Adam Pivirotto, with choreography by Robin Carrigan (Trick) – the team behind The Village, A Disco Daydream, last season’s downtown sensation at Dixon Place.  Back in the early 1990s, during the Golden Age of Manhattan Public Access cable TV, Nora Burns hosted and produced a variety show called “Candied Camera.” Filmed bimonthly in a makeshift TV studio that doubled as a sex club, and watched by tens of people who happened to be awake at 3:00 AM on a Tuesday, “Candied Camera” joined the pantheon of fabled cable shows by Andy Warhol, Robin Byrd, Al Goldstein, and Mrs. Mouth. The show was a crazy quilt of downtown doings, featuring saucy skits, in-studio performances (Varla Jean Merman Cheese-whiz anyone?), interviews with personalities from Marc Jacobs, Jennifer Coolidge, and RuPaul to Candis Cayne, Joey Arias, Michael Musto, and of course Brenda the Ukulele player and lots of go-go boys and drag queens. Themes of the over 35 shows, which have been archived at NYU’s Fales library, include “Gay Pride,” “the 9th Circle,” “Dead Friends,” “Old Porn,” “Cable Madness,” “Dress Up,” and “Domination.” “Candied Camera LIVE!” runs from Thursday, February 1 though Sunday, February 4. Performances are Thursday through Saturday evenings at 7:30 PM, with the Sunday show at 5:00 PM. Tickets, which are $30 and $25 for students and seniors, are available at LaMama.org. Performances take place at La MaMa’s newly renovated The Club @ La Mama, located at 74 East 4th Street (between Bowery and Second Avenue). _______________________________________________ LIKE.

]]> 1991 no Ep 95- Author & Motivational Speaker Tommy Burke Talks His New Book! "Not Just Sunglasses & Autographs" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable We have an inspiring chat for you today! Tommy Burke has come out swinging with his new memoir! LISTEN TO THIS! Author Tommy Burke, whose autobiography Not Just Sunglasses and Autographs, 30 Years of Film & Television Production with Life (& Near Death) Lessons, is a captivating memoir that follows the author's journey from bar bouncing in Boston to working on award-winning television shows and movies. This is an endearing story of overcoming the odds through dark humor, tenacity, authenticity, and happiness. Initially envisioned as a memoir about a man who had beaten Hodgkin's Lymphoma and lived to tell the tale, the author was then thrown a major curveball with a Parkinson's disease diagnosis. Equal parts pep-talk and gut-punch, this unvarnished and vulnerable memoir-meets-handbook shares lessons learned in life and work. These pages encourage readers to keep moving forward, embrace resilience, step out of their comfort zones, and take life head on. About Tommy BurkeWith more than 30 years of TV and film production experience, Tommy Burke brings an extensive and diverse list of credits to his latest creative endeavor: a book about the industry and insurmountable odds. A graduate of Boston College, Burke started out in television as a production Assistant while working other odd jobs – from bar bouncer and golf caddy to factory assemblyman – to sustain the meager TV industry income. His work ethic and build came in handy, scoring him a gig loading grip trucks for Powerhouse Films, which further exposed him to commercials and films in and around the New England area. He soon became the 'go to' guy of Production Assistants in Boston, working every motion picture produced in Massachusetts. After a move to Los Angeles in 1990, Burke quickly moved up the production ranks, working as First Assistant Director on an independent film with Johnny Depp. Nicknamed the "the Irish Bull" by his west coast colleagues, Burke went on to secure Assistant Director credits including Jerry Bruckheimer's acclaimed TV series Skin, Close to Home, CSI Miami and the pilot for Desperate Housewives.He spent his last five years on Chicago PD. In 2003, Burke was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Three years of doctor visits, nine operations and chemotherapy treatments were all included in part of his rigorous 14-hour shoot day routine. To no surprise, given his well-known tenacity, Burke conquered the disease into remission mostly by himself. Now, as he faces Parkinson's disease – his most challenging health problem yet – true to his style and heart, Burke is compelled to motivate and inspire others, so they learn from this experience.For more information on the book, including excerpt, photos and book purchase links:https://tommyburke.com All this and so much more only on The Roundtable with Robert Bannon! _______________________________________________ LIKE.

A graduate of Boston College, Burke started out in television as a production Assistant while working other odd jobs – from bar bouncer and golf caddy to factory assemblyman – to sustain the meager TV industry income. His work ethic and build came in handy, scoring him a gig loading grip trucks for Powerhouse Films, which further exposed him to commercials and films in and around the New England area. He soon became the 'go to' guy of Production Assistants in Boston, working every motion picture produced in Massachusetts. After a move to Los Angeles in 1990, Burke quickly moved up the production ranks, working as First Assistant Director on an independent film with Johnny Depp. Nicknamed the "the Irish Bull" by his west coast colleagues, Burke went on to secure Assistant Director credits including Jerry Bruckheimer's acclaimed TV series Skin, Close to Home, CSI Miami and the pilot for Desperate Housewives.He spent his last five years on Chicago PD. In 2003, Burke was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Three years of doctor visits, nine operations and chemotherapy treatments were all included in part of his rigorous 14-hour shoot day routine. To no surprise, given his well-known tenacity, Burke conquered the disease into remission mostly by himself. Now, as he faces Parkinson's disease – his most challenging health problem yet – true to his style and heart, Burke is compelled to motivate and inspire others, so they learn from this experience.For more information on the book, including excerpt, photos and book purchase links:https://tommyburke.com

It represents a profound moment of artistic expression and personal reflection – intertwining the power of the ocean, the beauty of her mother's memory, and the boundless depths of Kirsten’s own artistic vision. Nomination quote from Kirsten Agresta-Copely: “My team and I are over the moon happy and honored to be nominated for a GRAMMY® Award for my album Aquamarine. This is the first full length album recorded in our newly built studio, Casa Copely Recording, and we are so pleased to have this honor from The Recording Academy.” Aquamarine is Kirsten’s second New Age album, and is already the winner of the 2023 Global Music Award for “Outstanding New Age Performance.” According to Classical Crossover, Aquamarine is “a brilliant music tribute…Kirsten captures the mood so perfectly, you can almost hear the seagulls in the distance. The album is delightfully unrushed, with the aimless exploration of plucked notes and arpeggios that you might expect on a holiday or, for those of us stuck grudgingly at work, a montage to play memories of happier days.” New Age Music Guide cites: “This unique voyage into the deep blue sea feels significant, timeless, and heartfelt.” After recording and mixing the album in Brooklyn, New York, Kirsten declared, “It was healing for me to record the compositions that were created throughout my mother’s prolonged decline and transition. I consider myself fortunate to have the ability to create within a secure and safe space, where I can breathe new life into melodies that bring solace to my spirit. My hope is for listeners to experience the therapeutic power inherent in both music and the ocean.” About Kirsten Agresta-Copely            An international award-winning harpist and composer, Kirsten Agresta-Copely is hailed for her charismatic, telegenic presence on stage and known as the industry’s go-to harpist in the recording studio. An omnivorous artist steeped in rigorous classical training, Kirsten has performed with today’s leading artists including Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Stevie Wonder, Enya, The Roots, Lady Gaga, and Andrea Bocelli, to name a few. Her contributions to the world of music education are equally significant, having held esteemed positions at Vanderbilt University Blair School of Music and Sarah Lawrence College. She earned degrees from Indiana University Jacobs School of Music and is on the World Harp Congress Board of Directors. KirstenCopelyMusic.com _______________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

Mike King Is Here To Talk His Brand New Book "Dad Spelled Backwards" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcasts/the-roundtable Comedian and dentist, Mike King, has built his pediatric dental practice in an unusual manner. He incorporates comedy into his dental office in order to relax the children. Kid’s jokes, and magic tricks are all part of his treatment. Entertaining is in his blood. His father, Sid, was owner and MC of “Sid King’s Crazy Horse Bar” in Denver. In the 70s and 80s, it was one of the largest burlesque houses west of the Mississippi. It was so famous, Clint Eastwood shot his film “Every Which Way but Loose” there. It was only a matter of time before Mike started performing for grownups. In the comedy club circuit he’s known as “The Fifth Dentist”. You know, “Four out of five dentists recommend sugarless gum”. Well he’s the fifth! He appears weekly at Broadway Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, and Gotham Comedy Club. He also takes his hilarious stand-up routine on the road, especially to dental conventions. Currently Mike is working on his one man show, “The Fifth Dentist.” Mike has appeared on Comedy Central, America’s Funniest Home Videos, and An Evening at the Improv. He has opened many times for Ray Romano, and was featured in Newsweek magazine and the New York Times. He recently was selected to perform at the LA Comedy Festival. His other passion is writing. He sold a screenplay to Susskind and Company and became a member of the Writers Guild of America East. Newline Cinemas selected his romantic comedy script to develop from over a 100 submitted. His co-writer, Juan Campanella, won an Oscar in 2010. Another screenplay, “Supermarket” , co-written with Harrison Greenbaum, has been optioned. He was also selected by Larry David to submit ideas for the “Seinfeld” show and was a consultant for “The Eligible Dentist”, a sitcom pilot starring Gene Wilder. Mike has managed to balance his love for pediatric dentistry with his love for the entertainment business. _______________________________________________________________________ LIKE. COMMENT.

Founders Patricia Montour-Rossi and Leo Rossi, who were married in September 2023 in a beautiful ceremony in San Francisco, came together decades after their first chance meeting on a New York to LA flight in 1982, with Patricia as a United flight attendant and Leo on the road as tour manager with oneof his high-profile music artists (Christopher Cross). Remaining casual friends through the years eventually losing contact as they both continued on with their lives and careers, with marriages and raising families of their own (Leo as a father of five and Patricia a mother of four). In 2017, the two once again crossed paths on a serendipitous encounter in Denver where Leo was visiting on a business meeting and while sitting on a hotel patio, spotted Patricia across the street. As the couple's relationship blossomed they also merged their desire to create something that would honor their son's legacies by providing wellness products that help people enjoy their lives and inspire them to never give up on life...or love! _______________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

It seamlessly blends live, original music, stunning visual effects, and a dynamic ensemble of musicians, singers, and dancers. EMERGENCE takes its audience on a captivating journey into the deepest aspects of the human experience, posing profound questions about life, time, love, and human perception. Patrick has a diverse background - a lifelong composer, musician, educational science publisher and producer. In 2021, he wrote, recorded, and released the album "Music For Scientists," a testament to the emotional power of the profound realizations that science has unveiled. This album serves as an homage to the people of science, whom we all deeply rely on for our understanding of the world. He took that idea and transformed it into a stage production with a band, background singers, dancers, and amazing visual elements.  The show explores The unique Intersection of Science and Music and Inspiration from Scientific Insights: The show dives into the philosophical and intellectual depths challenging preconceptions, encourages exploration, and connects us to the fundamental mysteries of existence. EMERGENCE performs at The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theater at The Pershing Square Signature Center, through January 7, 2024.

]]> 979 no Ep 58- Gospel Superstar Maurette Brown Clark Talks Her New Album "He Loves Me" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ Maurette Brown Clark’s voice is one that sneaks up on you. It steals into your soul and, before you know it, you’re feeling everything she’s feeling. Her epistles of hope and encouragement are so indelibly linked to your own story that you can’t shake them, even if you tried. But you don’t want to. "HE LOVES ME" is the forthcoming 8-song project from multi-award winning singer-songwriter-producer, MAURETTE BROWN CLARK. The project will be globally available on Friday, November 3, 2023, via the Nettie's Child Music/MNRK Nashville label imprint. Maurette Brown Clark’s voice is one that sneaks up on you. It steals into your soul and, before you know it, you’re feeling everything she’s feeling. Her epistles of hope and encouragement are so indelibly linked to your own story that you can’t shake them, even if you tried. But you don’t want to. That’s why Maurette is known as the “Princess of Praise & Worship.” Her 2023 single, “I See Good,” written by Anthony Brown, is currently impacting radio, with the release of a brand new project to follow. “My prayer,” she said, “is for all of my songs to encourage people today and five, ten, twenty years from now.” Originally from Long Island, New York, she joined her father and three siblings in their family gospel group, the Brown Singers and together they performed throughout the greater New York area. Maurette also studied classical piano and sang in church choirs and choruses, continuing to hone her musical skills. After having graduated from University of Maryland with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, she answered the call to music ministry. Maurette launched her music career by writing songs, recording demos, and singing solos around the DMV area, where she caught the attention of other gospel artists. She sang with the Keyth Lee Singers and recorded with Rev. Timothy Wright, the Wilmington-Chester Mass Choir, and Daniel Winans. However, it wasn’t until she recorded with Richard Smallwood & Vision that the record industry really took notice. Maurette’s solo on “Angels,” from Richard Smallwood & Vision’s 1996 Adoration: Live in Atlanta, (which also included the classic “Total Praise”) so impressed the record company, Verity Records, that they signed her to a solo contract. Her debut album, How I Feel (1998), and its single, “Breaking of Day,” earned her a 2000 Stellar Award for Best New Artist. Maurette is often compared to Roberta Flack because of her confident, laidback approach. “I like to take the time to paint a picture. I like to set that kind of atmosphere in a song,” she said. She cites Donnie McClurkin among her singing inspirations. Fittingly, with Marvin Sapp, Daryl Coley, and Helen Baylor, Maurette received a Dove nomination for her participation on the 2008 remake of McClurkin’s “Stand.” Do not miss this inspirational chat & stream the album TODAY!

Best known as the “Culture Guy” in the groundbreaking original “Queer Eye,” theater audiences first met Jai at the age of 18 when he played Angel in RENT, making him the youngest person ever cast in a leading role in that show. While in NYC, Jai appeared at Lincoln Center in Spinning Into Butter, as Carmen Ghia in The Producers and as Zanna in the cult classic Zanna, Don’t! While performing eight shows a week, Jai became a fixture in nightlife with his popular post modern pop cabaret night at XL called Twisted Cabaret. Since then Jai has become a regular fixture in TV and film guest starring on shows like “Grey’s Anatomy,” “The Rookie,” “The Magicians,” “How I Met Your Mother,” “Fantasy Island,” and as the scene stealing Geoffrey in “Malibu Country” opposite Reba and Lily Tomlin to name a few. Most recently Jai was in the Judd Apatow film BROS and is in “Uncoupled,” which is about to shoot its second season. A Thousand Sweet Kisses is a hilarious and touching musical cabaret featuring Broadway and pop classics as well as never before told behind the scenes stories. Each night will feature a different surprise guest dueting “I’ll Cover You” from RENT with him. Join us for Jai’s unforgettable return to the NYC stage!

]]> 1384 no Ep 39- Jordanian Filmmaker Ahmad Alyasee Tackles Trans & Queer Lives & Traditions in "Our Males & Females" https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ There has never been a time for a piece like this! We in the US often see things thru the lens of our culture, laws, and government. Have you thought about Trans Lives & Religion in other lands? Award-winning director Ahmad Alyaseer's latest film, OUR MALES AND FEMALES, is a story of the harrowing injustice faced by a deceased transgender woman in the Middle East as her family grapples with the task of washing the body and coming to terms with their “son’s” new identity. The short, a powerful exploration of the complexities of gender identity, grief and religion, has not only captivated audiences worldwide but has also just secured its place as a strong contender for the 2024 Academy Awards®. The film has so far garnered widespread attention and acclaim during its impressive festival run, participating in more than 90 film festivals across the globe and being screened in over 35 countries. Nonetheless, the film still faces challenges in its home region, the Middle East, where censorship issues have prevented its screening, underscoring the critical nature of the themes explored in OUR MALES AND FEMALES. Ahmad Alyaseer, an award-winning writer and director from Jordan, masterfully weaved this gripping narrative that continues to spark conversations about gender identity and acceptance. “I want to make films that are bold, spark debate and challenge stereotypes, allowing audiences to think about issues they may not have considered before and shed light on certain taboos in their culture, in hopes of fostering empathy and tolerance.” Alyaseer is currently developing two feature films, including one based on OUR MALES AND FEMALES, promising more impactful narratives in the future. With its recent qualification for the 2024 Academy Awards®, OUR MALES AND FEMALES is poised to reach new heights and remains a testament to the power of cinema and storytelling. __________________________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

We are deep, we are silly, we are talking music! Abigail Barlow has accomplished a lot in her life and she is still a BABY! She has a Grammy, she has music streamed millions and millions of times, she created a concept album of a TV show, and went viral, but it has come with some tough moments as well! She is here to talk her journey, what is next, and the album, coming soon, that she has put her heart and soul into! GRAMMY-award winner Abigail Barlow is back with "Rock Bottom," the first track off her upcoming debut solo album Princess Pop, due out early 2024. A culmination of the past year’s ups and downs, "Rock Bottom" (co-written with Kings and Gus Ross, who also produced the track) is a statement from an artist who has reflected, learned, and grown - an artist who has realized that her voice and message continue to resonate powerfully as she looks ahead to the future. After contesting a lawsuit over her GRAMMY-award winning The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical as half of Barlow & Bear, "Rock Bottom" reflects on the experiences she’s had over the past year, paving the path forward, onward, and upward for Abigail as an artist. __________________________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

We have one for you! Shelley Herman is an Emmy-nominated writer whose career began as an NBC Page in Burbank, CA. A graduate of Agoura High School and California State University, Northridge, Shelley has written over 1000 hours of television shows, contributed to numerous books for Dove/Phoenix Books, starred in the TV series Off the Wall, and Night Rap, and co-hosted ESPN's Battle of The Monster Trucks and Mud Bog Spectacular. In addition, Shelley has guest-starred on numerous TV shows and hosted eight infomercials and national talk radio programs, and is a member of SAG/AFTRA, Writers Guild of America, West and The Television Academy She and her husband, actor Randall Carver, live in Los Angeles, where they feed every stray animal in their neighborhood.  "I'm not ashamed of anything," says showbiz veteran Shelley Herman about stories recounted in her new book, My Peacock Tale: Secrets Of An NBC Page. "There's nothing in this book that anyone should be ashamed of, because the lessons we learned, the people we met, made us who we are now. We had a lot of fun and if we could, we'd do it all over again!" More than a memoir, My Peacock Tale is a playful mix of "Sex and the City" and "Mad Men" – set against the backdrop of Hollywood (and beautiful downtown Burbank!) in the 1970s. It's not just about the stories and memories of Herman's own time as a 20-something NBC Studios Page in Burbank - handed "the keys to the kingdom" and assigned gatekeeper to showbiz royalty. It's also about the lifelong friendships she formed with fellow Pages, whose own wild and crazy formative experiences are also tastefully recounted and unabashedly celebrated.  _________________________________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

]]> 2387 no Ep 27= Jazz/Cabaret Stars & NY Staples Jim Caruso & Billy Stritch Talk Music, Birdland, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ They are NY Staples! They are everywhere, play for everyone, and do it all! Billy Stritch & Jim Caruso are here! They are talking Birdland and Cast Party! It’s a cross between “The Voice” and “The Tonight Show!” Jim Caruso’s Cast Party is a wildly popular happening that has brought Broadway glitz and urbane wit to the legendary Birdland in New York City every Monday night since 2003. It is the ultimate spot to mix and mingle with show folk and the people who love them. Cast Party is a hilariously impromptu open mic/variety show where showbiz superstars and up-and-comers deliver jaw-dropping musical performances and razzle-dazzle. Legendary showman Jim Caruso guides the entire affair with razor-sharp humor and the unbridled enthusiasm of an uber-fan. Musical director-to-the-stars Billy Stritch holds court at the ivories. But the real fun starts when the audience participates in the onstage festivities. Broadway legends, jazzers, cabaret divas, starry-eyed tourists, and enthusiastic kids storm the stage and entertain each other. If you have a voice, a dream and some sheet music, your Cast Party moment awaits! Caruso and Stritch love taking the show on the road, and have celebrated talent in London, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Chicago, Austin, Nashville, Dallas, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Miami, as well as very special all-star events at The Town Hall and Jazz at Lincoln Center in Manhattan. Cast Party has been honored with five BroadwayWorld Awards, a MAC Award, Bistro Award, and a Nightlife Award.

]]> 2104 no Ep 26- Emma Hunton (Wicked, TV, & More) Talks "Exorcistic" Coming To NY Just In Time For October! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ We love us some Emma Hunton. She wowed us in "Wicked," sang her face off in "Rent," and stuns on screen in all her projects. She is here to talk about a new parody just in time for spooky season! The new rock musical, EXORCISTIC presented by HRS Productions and Orgasmico Theatre will premier in NYC just in time for Halloween. The show will come to NYC for its limited viewing on October 8th through October 23rd at The Box. The unauthorized parody of The Exorcist was brought back by popular demand after their sold-out run at The Three Clubs in Los Angeles.  The musical parody brings about horror, hilarity, and the most powerhouse rock tunes you’ll see in a theater this year! The production brings to roaring life with iconic imagery and an explosive live band, the story of a movie star whose daughter becomes possessed and is helped by priests who try to save her.  Book, lyrics, and music by two-time Ovation Award winner Michael Shaw Fisher. Lindsay Heather Pearce (Wicked and RENT) will be featured in the opening cast. Emma Hunton (Freeform's Good Trouble, Wicked, and RENT) will also star, reprising her role from the LA production. The cast includes: The Summer Set's frontman Brian Logan Dales, Leigh Wolf (Exorcistic 2013), Jesse Merlin (For Love of the Glove, Re-Animator the Musical), Marissa Jaret Winokur (Hairspray, Bupkis), Nick Bredosky (UMPO 10 Things I Hate About You) Kim Dalton (Cluelesque, Toil & Trouble) Mitchell Gerrard Johnson (A New Brain) Gabby Sanalitro (That 90’s Show) and Tyler Olshanksky. Exorcistic is a parody within a parody. The audience watches a struggling theater company make their way to Broadway by the second act, however, their lead, Emma Hunton has taken Method Acting a step too far and is replaced with a Broadway star. This role is a rotating rolodex of stars which you do not want to miss because it changes every night! Each night there will be a different special guest performer who will be played by: Marissa Rosen (For the Girls, Water for Elephants, Modern Love) Nick Cearly (The Skivvies, You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown) Jillian Schiralli (CATS, now that’s what i call 90s) Gerard Canonico (Almost Famous, The Dude Ranch) Jordan Donica (Camelot, RENT, Hamilton) Jamie Cepero (SMASH, The Function) and more!  Los Angeles cast member Frankie Grande says “Exorcistic combines everything you love about Rock Musical Theater and Horror into the perfect evening of theater that will leave you laughing and crying all the way home!” The Box is located at 189 Chrystie St, New York, NY 10002.  The show will start promptly at 7:30 pm with the doors opening at 6:30 pm.  Tickets are now available and can be purchased here To listen to the cast album of EXORCISTIC: The Rock Musical, click here Follow EXORCISTIC on IG: @exorcistic_musical  ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ LIKE.

]]> 1541 no Ep 21- Opening Night Coverage of "20 Seconds" Starring Tom Sweitzer https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ We were live on the red carpet for "20 Seconds" at the Signature. We had a chance to talk to the star Tom Sweitzer about the journey to NY with this incredibly personal story. We also chat with the director, VIP guests, and more! To a young Tom Sweitzer in 1970s blue-collar Pennsylvania, homemade meatballs were an Italian mom’s cure-all. Husky pants from Sears were a necessary evil. And dad’s schizophrenia and alcoholism were the fuel to a nightmarish fire. That is the life Tom knew and endured until one day, he ran out of the house and into the church across the street. There, he met a woman who gave him a gift that would alter the course of his life: music. Through song, Tom found a haven, a passion, a career, and a purpose. But above all, it gave him the language to accept loss, let in love, and forgive the demons of his past. 20 Seconds is an inspiring testimony to the uplifting power of music at all stages of life. Music provided companionship when Tom couldn’t find it in a destructive home. Years later, music shaped Tom’s career as a therapist, allowing him to augment his penchant for song with clinical, research-based practices. In his inviting solo performance, Tom weaves storytelling with original song and nearly a dozen colorful characters. Over 90 minutes, audiences meet the Sunday school savior, the compassionate but ailing mother, the tortured father, one foul-mouthed parrot, and many more. As you follow him through his journey, you’ll hear the music that shaped his healing, and, as the church bells chime across the street, experience the powerful 20 seconds that mended a scarred relationship between a father and son. "Tom Sweitzer is a composer and artist with vision, and he delivers an emotional and compelling autobiographical performance. He survived extraordinary challenges in his childhood and discovered a talent for music that, as a Music Therapist, enables him generously to give others what he never received. This is a portrait of resilience and forgiveness." - Renée Fleming Grab tickets to "20 Seconds" at www.20SecondsPlay.com Tune in to find out only on “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon!” LIKE.

DEBUT ALERT! DEBUT ALERT! The Green Room 42 will host the New York debut of The Fabulist Fox Sister, the musical comedy stage hit direct from London, for two shows on Tuesday, September 26 and Friday, September 29 at 9:30 PM. The show stars writer and performer Michael Conley, featuring music by Oliver Award nominee Luke Bateman and book and lyrics by Conley. It’s New York, 1892: Kate Fox, the woman who inadvertently invented séances is holding her last one. A final audience gathers to watch as she conjures some ghosts to tell the story of her life and the religion she accidentally began. Loosely inspired by the loosely true story of Kate Fox, The Fabulist Fox Sister is a silly, scathing and sardonic one-person musical inspired by our own era of approximate truth. Conley is a writer and performer based in the UK. In New York he hosted the award-winning Gay & Lesbian Comedy Fest and starred in Hello, Boys!, a revue of songs he wrote with Matthew Loren Cohen. Musicals include the Off West End hits Superhero (winner of the 2018 Off West End Award for “Best New Musical”), The Sorrows of Satan, The Little Beasts and Indecent Proposal. English adaptations include Matches and The Prince and The Pauper. Plays include The Cancellation of Crispin Cox, Baubo and the Queen of the Sea and A Gay Divorce.

In the US, there are over 400,000 kids in Foster Care. Over 22k of them age out of the system every year and are not adopted. Out of that 22k, 20% end up homeless at eighteen years old! We had no idea! That is where "You Gotta Believe" comes in! They take the challenge to find forever homes for teenage foster children to give them a chance to be a part of a family and community!

We had the chance to talk to:

Seth & James

Bellamy Young

Donna Murphy

Norm Lewis

Brenda Braxton

Matt Gould

Griffin Matthews

& More!

We even have a clip of the Surprise Guest of the night, Broadway's Original Annie, Andrea McArdle singing "Maybe" for Bellamy Young!

It was a night to remember!

A once-in-a-generation talent, she takes influence from Aretha and Whitney, bringing her audience back to an era of Hollywood movie glamour, but her style and presentation could be compared to Billie Eilish, a cool, confident, edgy tomboy. The innovative jazz vocalist, pop singer, and gifted songwriter has brought memorable performances to global audiences: Los Angeles, San Diego, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Boston, Washington D.C., New York , Miami and Atlanta stateside; internationally to countries including Amsterdam, and most uniquely Rwanda with the Christian humanitarian agency World Vision, whose mission is to provide clean water to every person everywhere they work by 2030. She’s performed at high-profile events, like The Trumpet Awards in 2018; at legendary venues like The New York Philharmonic; and she even played Young Ella in the Celebration of Ella Fitgerald. Singing since the tender age of 12, Wé Ani’s star-making turn during her show-stopping blind audition on the hit NBC TV show The Voice drew world-wide attention in 2016. People are continuously awed by the distinct difference between Wé’s speaking voice and singing voice during performances and appearances on social media. Wé Ani is, undeniably, a rising star.

]]> 1466 no Ep 12- Tom Sweitzer, Star & Writer of the Off Broadway Smash "20 Seconds" Bares All! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ This show and this conversation is one not to be missed! To a young Tom Sweitzer in 1970s blue-collar Pennsylvania, homemade meatballs were an Italian mom’s cure-all. Husky pants from Sears were a necessary evil. And dad’s schizophrenia and alcoholism were the fuel to a nightmarish fire. That is the life Tom knew and endured until one day, he ran out of the house and into the church across the street. There, he met a woman who gave him a gift that would alter the course of his life: music. Through song, Tom found a haven, a passion, a career, and a purpose. But above all, it gave him the language to accept loss, let in love, and forgive the demons of his past. 20 Seconds is an inspiring testimony to the uplifting power of music at all stages of life. Music provided companionship when Tom couldn’t find it in a destructive home. Years later, music shaped Tom’s career as a therapist, allowing him to augment his penchant for song with clinical, research-based practices. In his inviting solo performance, Tom weaves storytelling with original song and nearly a dozen colorful characters. Over 90 minutes, audiences meet the Sunday school savior, the compassionate but ailing mother, the tortured father, one foul-mouthed parrot, and many more. As you follow him through his journey, you’ll hear the music that shaped his healing, and, as the church bells chime across the street, experience the powerful 20 seconds that mended a scarred relationship between a father and son. "Tom Sweitzer is a composer and artist with vision, and he delivers an emotional and compelling autobiographical performance. He survived extraordinary challenges in his childhood and discovered a talent for music that, as a Music Therapist, enables him generously to give others what he never received. This is a portrait of resilience and forgiveness." - Renée Fleming Grab tickets to "20 Seconds" at www.20SecondsPlay.com Tune in to find out only on “The Roundtable with Robert Bannon!” LIKE.

Following a sold-out, award-winning Hollywood production of Tripping on Life, legendary, Emmy-winning actress Lin Shaye is bringing her solo show to New York City. Directed by Robert Galinsky, Tripping on Life runs through October 8, 2023 at Theatre Row.

LIN SHAYE is known for her roles in such iconic films as Insidious, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Dumb & Dumber, Kingpin, and There's Something About Mary, Shaye aims to mesmerize audiences with her unflinching portrayal of a woman's life forever changed by a tumultuous event in 1968. Tripping on Life is a solo exploration of personal growth set against the backdrop of the vibrant and transformative 1960s. Known for its political outrage, artistic expression, and unconventional love, the era set the stage for a life-altering experience that shaped Lin’s journey up to the present day. Shaye shares her intimate story through her powerful performance, delving into the depths of emotion and resilience.

"Bringing this show to NYC is a dream come true! As an actress and writer, this new chapter allows me to step into the spotlight of my own creation. My goal is to take the audience ‘on a trip’ into the heart of the hippie world of love and hope that we all longed for then and still long for today. Over the past few years, we have all gone through a traumatic experience. I hope that by opening up and telling this story now, it will resonate with each person, reminding them of the strength that lies within us all."  - Lin Shaye, writer and star of Tripping on Life.

With a career spanning decades, Lin Shaye is renowned as an icon of the absurd and the macabre. Her dynamic performances have captivated audiences worldwide.

Out artist Stewart Taylor is ending this summer of love with a song about the one that got away. “Favorite Ex,” available now on Spotify. In his latest single release, “Favorite Ex,” out artist Stewart Taylor sings about an old flame he regretfully had to extinguish. “We ended things when I left New York to pursue my career in Los Angeles,” he explains. “We both knew life would eventually take me out West and that our time together was limited, but I often wonder what would’ve been had I stayed.” The song merges eighties vibes with today’s pop and R&B and is the second ballad Stewart Taylor has written about his former lover.

Stewart says that years later, on a phone call, he thanked his ex for being so wonderful and told him that he was in fact, his favorite ex. “I look back and smile about what we had.” Produced by Romanian hitmaker MADS (David Guetta, Imagine Dragons), Stewart Taylor’s “Favorite Ex” is being distributed independently and is available on Apple Music, Spotify, and all digital platforms.

The evening features songs from “Queen of the Universe,” including “Get the Party Started,” “The Rose,” and “River Deep, Mountain High,” in addition to tributes to Shirley Bassey and Liza Minnelli. TrAshley will lift the curtain on what really happens when you travel halfway across the world to shoot a reality television programme when you’re a control freak with absolutely no control. Featuring music director Brian Nash, expect a night of laughs, gay anthems and powerhouse vocals, as Trevor brings his trademark wit and self-deprecation back to New York. Following this show, Ashley will perform at the Lyric Theatre in London’s West End in October, before returning home to Australia for concerts in Perth and Melbourne. Trevor Ashley is one of Australia’s most sought-after and successful performers. He has built a career and following as an actor, writer, director and international queen of cabaret – but not necessarily in that order.

(is broken), both of which toured to Vienna, Hong Kong and London’s West End, and in I’m Every Woman for which he won the Sydney Theatre Award. On TV, Trevor was commissioned to write and star in “The Very Trevor Ashley Show” for SBS, Australia’s public television network. He recently completed a national symphony tour of “Diamonds Are for Trevor,” a tribute to Shirley Bassey which was also recorded as a TV special for Foxtel Arts. He has also appeared in “Les Norton” (ABC), “Drunk History” (Network 10), “Get Krackin’” (ABC) and “Dance Academy” (ABC) and the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras broadcast as a special guest star. This year he returns to the regular role of Dolly in “RFDS: Royal Flying Doctor Service” for the 7 Network.

"Pay The Writer" Starring Marcia Cross, Bryan Batt, Ron Canada, & More! https://broadwaypodcastnetwork.com/podcast/the-roundtable-with-robert-bannon/ The Roundtable comes to you from the red carpet of "Pay The Writer!" Could there be a more timely title for a show! This show packs a punch! You need to check it out! We had the chance to chat with stars Marcia Cross, Ron Canada, Bryan Batt, Writer Tawni O'Dell, Director Karen Carpenter, and the rest of the cast! Plus the stars were out- Noah J. Ricketts, Seth Rudetsky, James Wesley, Sharon Catherine Brown, and more! Show Info: Pay The Writer is a new comedy-drama from New York Times Best Selling Author Tawni O’Dell. Focusing on the complicated relationship between a legendary literary agent and his best friend-turned-most-successful client, this dynamic and socially intuitive play explores how an artist’s life is controlled by their calling and talent. Bruston Fischer is a young gay man trying to make it in publishing while suffering from social persecution when he first meets Cyrus Holt some 40 years ago. Cyrus is a gifted Black writer trying to get his talent noticed in a world that wants to ignore his existence. Through their unique friendship, the pair find literary success and the most stable relationship either will ever have. Yet, when talent, business, and love intertwine, missteps occur and inevitably, regrets often follow. Triumph and loss become blurred as we sort through the challenges of the human condition.
