Jordan also talks about her two vocal cord injuries including how she came back stronger than ever, and why vocal health should be taught in schools all over the world. Plus, Jordan takes questions from the Patreon Peeps and tells us the causes she's passionate about, the things she's hyperfocusing on at the moment, the importance of humility on stage, the difference between loving and living love, and why she wants everyone to have their own vine and fig tree.

One of Broadway's leading ladies, Mandy Gonzalez played Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton, originated the role of Nina in In the Heights and played Elphaba in Wicked (and that's not even everything!). Now she can add author to her resume with her new book Fearless! Mandy discusses being both Mexican-American and Jewish and how she did not fit neatly into a box for other people. She talks about her identity and the journey she went on to clarify it, despite many in the industry telling her she had to change in some way to succeed. We hear how it affected her move to New York to pursue a career on Broadway and the fearless pursuit of her dream. She was never afraid of failing because she didn't worry what people would think if something did not work out (and it totally worked out!). Mandy also opens up about her journey with breast cancer and how her Fearless Squad offered her support she did not know she would need. As we wrap up the conversation, we talk about the importance of self-care for us women and why we should not feel selfish for taking time to look after ourselves.

Montego Glover is an actor, singer and voiceover artist who made her Broadway debut in the original Broadway production of The Color Purple as Celie and Nettie. She went on to create the role of Felicia Farrell in the Broadway musical Memphis, for which she received a Tony Award Nomination, and won both the Outer Critics’ Circle Award and the Drama Desk Award. Montego also received acclaim for her performances in The Royale at Lincoln Center Theater, and All The Natalie Portmans produced by MCC Theater. She starred in the 2016 Broadway revival of Les Miserables as Fantine, and most recently, Montego completed a run as Angelica Schuyler in the Chicago Company of Hamilton. On television she can be seen in Bull, Black Box, The Following, Hostages, Smash, Golden Boy, The Good Wife, White Collar, NYC 22, Law & Order, and Memphis on Broadway for PBS. Montego has lent her voice to many video gaming projects which include: Battlefront, Renegade Squadron & The Old Republic all for the Star Wars franchise. And in the world of animation she can be heard voicing characters for Dora the Explorer, Go Diego Go. We will soon see Montego in a new show called Inventing Anna on Netflix. After moving to New York City to pursue her career, Montego gave herself a month to learn her new home - to get acquainted with the city, the subway, and catch up with old friends. During this month, she told herself she wouldn’t worry about auditions. However, two weeks after her move, she received a phone call from a fellow FSU alumni who was in a show downtown, and they’d just lost their leading lady. She auditioned and landed the job on the spot. Montego began working steadily in theater, but soon added commercials, television, voice-over projects, and guest spots with symphony orchestras to her repertoire. In her own words, the current pandemic has “changed the game”, and Montego shares with us how she is continuing to take care of her heart and her spirit, allowing her to keep showing up for herself, her career, her family, and her chosen family. In this episode, we talk about: How she is staying busy and sane during quarantine One of the things she loves most about Theater Her “toolbox” Playing a woman with “a darkness” inside in All the Natalie Portman’s How she recovers after a deeply emotional performance Stumbling upon her first acting class in school when she was young Her BFA program at Florida State University Her views on abundance Connect with Montego: On the web IG: @montegoglover Twitter: @montegoglover Connect with The Theatre Podcast: Support us on Patreon: Patreon.com/TheTheatrePodcast Twitter & Instagram: @theatre_podcast Facebook.com/OfficialTheatrePodcast TheTheatrePodcast.com Alan's personal Instagram: @alanseales Email me at feedback@thetheatrepodcast.com.

You’re about to listen to the second half of what I hope will be a very entertaining and informative series called STUPID, but trying... My therapist hates that title, but it’s easy to feel stupid when you experience something new. I’m just your average white gay actor/director last seen in Beetlejuice on Broadway and after a conversation about race and theatre with my cast-mate Gilbert L. Bailey II on Instagram LIVE, I thought it might be a good idea to continue these difficult and layered conversations with other members of the broadway community. I’m prepared to ask those questions that you’re too scared to ask. I don’t mind looking stupid, cause I’m trying my best. What’s really stupid is being scared to get to know someone. Maybe the next series will be called, informed and still trying. My guest on IGTV LIVE this week is someone I went to school with, I’ve directed her, we’ve performed together, we lived together for 5 years, she made her Broadway debut as Sarah in the revival of RAGTIME, she made history as an emergency understudy when she went on with a script in hand as Trina in FALSETTOS, she is currently the all-time quintessential Angelica Schuyler, please try to imagine how beautiful she is when you hear me scream when I see her face, broadway’s darling, Stephanie Umoh.

We watched Hamilton on Disney + and we know you did too. But it left us wanting to know more about the real women portrayed in the musical. In this first episode of a two part series, we cover America's founding sisters, Eliza and Angelica Schuyler. Listen in as we discuss all things 18th century and try and work out what exactly is science. Lets dive in to the true story of the sister act behind your new favourite musical.
The hit Broadway show 'Hamilton' begins streaming on Disney+ tomorrow (July 3rd) and we got the chance to catch up with one of the stars of the show, Renée Elise Goldsberry.
A toast to the groom! To the bride! To knowing you'll always regret the sacrifice you made for your sister! In this updated 2019 episode, Kirk takes a dive into Lin-Manuel Miranda's epic Broadway musical Hamilton, focusing on Renée Elise Goldsberry's first act showstopper, "Satisfied." Regret tinges an otherwise joyous day as Angelica Schuyler remembers the night she met Alexander Hamilton, fell in love with him, and quickly realized they could never be together. It's a heady mix of complex rhyme schemes, powerhouse vocals, and musical character motifs so densely interwoven that it's hard to keep track of them all. (Note: This is an updated version of an episode that originally ran on May 1, 2019. It includes a new intro and outro, a couple of small editing tweaks, the show's current theme music, a new aside about Angelica's introduction to Alexander, and some added mentions of Alex Lacamoire, Hamilton's fabulous musical director.)

She’s defied gravity as an Elphaba standby, “werked!” as Angelica Schuyler, and controlled minds as Allison Hargreeves on Netflix’s The Umbrella Academy. But before taking on these roles, Emmy Raver-Lampman had the unique experience of performing in the ensemble of the 2010 national tour of Hair, which ending up playing a Broadway theatre the following summer. Emmy joined me in the studio to chat all about making her Broadway debut and how her experiences as an ensemblist shaped her later work as a principal. Here’s our conversation...

This week on the Geektown Radio podcast Bex from TristaBytes returns to the show (with all her limbs intact for once!) to discuss the latest films, games, all the UK TV premiere date info, and US TV news. We also report on our weekend at MCM Birmingham Comic Con, plus we have an interview with Tom Hopper & Emmy Raver-Lampman, aka Luther & Allison from Netflix's 'The Umbrella Academy'.On the same day in 1989, forty-three infants are inexplicably born to random, unconnected women who showed no signs of pregnancy the day before. Seven are adopted by Sir Reginald Hargreeves, a billionaire industrialist, who creates The Umbrella Academy and prepares his "children" to save the world. But not everything went according to plan. In their teenage years, the family fractured and the team disbanded. Now, the six surviving thirty-something members reunite upon the news of Hargreeve’s passing. Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Vanya and Number Five work together to solve a mystery surrounding their father's death. But the estranged family once again begins to come apart due to their divergent personalities and abilities, not to mention the imminent threat of a global apocalypse.Tom Hopper you will know from shows such as 'Black Sails' where he played Billy Bones, 'Merlin' when he donned the armour of Sir Percival, 'Game of Thrones' which saw him star as Dickon Tarly, and, of course, 'The Umbrella Academy' where he plays Luther/Spaceboy.Allison in 'Umbrella Academy' is Emmy Raver-Lampman's first major tv series role, however, she is also an accomplished musical theatre actress.

We don't usually play favorites here at the Theater People Podcast, but for us, Renee's turn at Angelica Schuyler in the mega-hit "Hamilton" is the performance of the season. And her performance of the song "Satisfied" is one of the most genuinely riveting pieces of storytelling to hit the stage in years. For this episode, we talk about how she won the role, the experience of starring in one of the most popular and groundbreaking shows in recent memory, and how she balances her work and family life.
