With just two weeks away until election day, there is no day but today to make sure you don’t throw away your shot at utilizing your right to vote.

The jukebox musical phenomenon has exploded in the 21st Century. From Mamma Mia to Rock of Ages, generations of theatregoers have seen their favorite songs take the stage to tell unique narratives.

Halloween is quickly approaching, which means it's time to blast all of your favorite spooky broadway tunes. There are many spine-chilling musicals out there, and I have compiled them into one fantastic playlist. 

Considering how condensed this past Broadway season turned out to be, the question of whether or not there would be a Tony Awards ceremony this year was up in the air for some time, at least until recently.

As a self-proclaimed theater kid and someone who has performed in musicals for years, continues to attend live shows and listen to soundtracks, it has broken my heart each time to see Broadway close yet again.

It’s week seven here in college, friends, and it’s time for celebration! Hang the streamers, bake a  cake, and break out the noisemakers: I’m rehearsing again! Shout it to the rooftops!

Let’s face it. Because of the pandemic, there’s a lot of things we miss. As a theatre kid, one of those things is live shows.

MTV’s special of Legally Blonde: The Musical just celebrated its 13th birthday this past week. When I saw this all over BWW, I was filled with nostalgia. I have something to confess. I’ve watched this MTV special over 300 times. 

Cast members suddenly, and stealthily, claim the stage. The energy zaps you. Each cast member dances, acts, and sings directly to you. The theatre shakes and rattles your bones. I knew in the Overture that my dad and I were watching a special piece of theatre. Jagged Little Pill.

Earlier this summer, when a friend and I were talking on the phone and lamenting the loss of theatre, we started talking about Broadway songs that have taught us important life lessons.

We’re in the middle of one of the scariest and most stressful events our generation has  had to face. We have not known a crisis like this. And – somehow – we're expected to continue  living and learning as though the world is not upside-down.  

Hello folks! Sorry that it’s been a while, but I’ve been very busy! Namely, tonight we open my University’s production of The Women by Clare Boothe Luce. I’m playing a bunch of roles in an ensemble track, and the whole process has been an exciting, Zoom-filled blast. 

In this modern day, some of us have been forced to grow up faster than we should have. Much like Hamilton, it's in the hands of our youth to become creative revolutionaries and make do with what we have.

We tend to think of Greek tragedy as the earliest form of drama – the exact opposite of the oddly futuristic theatre world we inhabit now, in which actors and audiences around the world connect through screens for Zoom readings and YouTube cabarets.

A few days ago, Broadway officially extended its shutdown until at least June 2021. I haven’t been taking the news well, to say the least. I miss everything. Singing. Dancing. Stage-Managing. Advertising.

Helloooooo BroadwayWorld! My name is Marissa Tomeo (she/her/hers) and I’m a new student blogger here to share all things about being a theatre major and college student during this global pandemic!

Hey BroadwayWorld! My name is Michael Scuotto, and I’m new to this whole blogging thing. I’m currently a sophomore studying theatre, music, and literature at Sarah Lawrence College.

Today I am going to be live reacting to the 2020 Tony nominations.

There have been many ups and downs for me while being home. 

Hello BroadwayWorld! My name is Kyle Morales, I am 22-years-old, and I am a current senior at Baruch College. I am majoring in Communications with a minor in Digital Media and Culture, and not only am I a student, but I am an actor as well.

Ephemeral. Innovative. Transportive. These are just a few words that have been used to describe Samford Theatre Underground’s Travel Theatre

When I was a little girl, I, like many other five-year-old dancers, flounced around my parent’s living room  in a tutu like it was my job.

Per the lengthy title, I’m sure if you’re reading this that you’ve already buckled in for quite the wild ride.

UWSP has developed a concept to continue performances within the prodigious theatre and dance program. To adapt to the time of our country, the department of theatre and dance thought of a new idea that would include new works written, directed, and designed by students in the overall performance called, In This Moment.

“I just don’t get it—how a mediocre actor from a measly little town is suddenly  the brightest jewel in England’s royal crown.” Barely ten minutes into the show,  Something Rotten manages to sum up exactly how most students feel about William  Shakespeare—ambivalent at best and loathful at worst.
