Welcome to stage door studios

Welcome to Stage Door Studios, where I sit down with theater performers for a mix of thoughtful conversations, fun questions and everything in between.

I want these interviews to feel like the kind of conversation you'd have with a performer if you actually had time to ask them the questions you have after the show.

We talk about their careers, the shows they're working on, their creative process and the things you might not hear in a traditional interview. Some questions are more personal, some are just for fun and the goal is always to get to know the person behind the performance.

Since starting the series, Stage Door Studios interviews have reached more than 97,000 views across platforms and I've had the chance to sit down with performers from some incredible productions.

And at the end of every interview, there's one thing I always make sure to do: have my guest sign my giant Playbill. It's become a tradition, and my Playbill is slowly but surely filling up.
