    #39: Revolting Children with Michael Perrie Jr.

    Michael Perrie Jr. was that kid in youth theatre: The one who lived for a laugh and always had to learn the hard way. Fast-forward 18ish years, and his comedic daring has made him not only a successful performer but a gifted composer/lyricist/librettist as well. Join us for this trip down memory lane in which both Perrie and host Sally Fuller revisit some of their summer theatre camp days, favorite interviews, and more. Check out our show notes with some photos from these shows we're talking about on TheBroadwayGinger.com!

    #36: My Favorite Podcast with Michael Perrie, Jr.

    This might be the first ever podcast episode about a musical about a podcast. Between various engagements playing Buddy Holly/everyone in Million Dollar Quartet, multi-talented performer and writer Michael Perrie, Jr. found a way to blend his love of both podcasts and musicals in his show My Favorite Podcast, a musical based on My Favorite Murder. For our fourth installment of the New Works Series, host Sally Fuller gets a new theatre BFF as she and Perrie discuss the art of writing comedy, the inexplicable magic of seeing your favorite musical for the first time, and much more. Listen to "Little Georgia Jewish Murder Girl," an exclusive track from the musical, at the end! Photos and videos on TheBroadwayGinger.com.

    #35: Wait for the Morn with Spencer Williams

    As this episode coincides with the USA's Independence Day observance, it seems fitting to feature a musical about the quintessential American experience of traveling across the world to make a new life. Spencer Williams' musical For Tonight is getting a concept recording at the end of the month, and this milestone holds significance for not only him but his ancestors as well. Host Sally Fuller sits down with Williams to discuss the fascinating backstory that turned a few paragraphs of a journal into a large-scale musical. After the conversation, stick around to hear an exclusive release of the song, "Wait for the Morn" from For Tonight, sung in authentic Welsh accents by West End actors Dale Evans and Simon Gordon! And be sure to check out our show notes for some bonus photos and videos on TheBroadwayGinger.com.

    #32: The Impossible Dream with Terron Brooks

    This might be my first Broadway interview that hardly centers around Broadway- or even entertainment- at all. Terron Brooks is known for his starring role in NBC's miniseries The Temptations where he played Eddie Kendricks, as well as star turns in The Lion King and Hairspray, but he's also in the business of inspiration. With a passion for living authentically and a contagiously hopeful spirit, Terron is always dreaming impossible dreams no matter what his circumstances are. Come be inspired with us today! {And watch performances from Terron in our show notes on TheBroadwayGinger.com} Mentions: Paul Milliken, Honest Answers with Terron Brooks, The Lion King, Hairspray, "The Soul of Broadway," The Man of La Mancha, The Phantom of the Opera, Annie, The Pantages Theatre, The Temptations

Today you'll get to hear a deeper dive into the concept musical from Laura, some free acting coaching from Terry Burrell, an honest look at the difficulty of being on Broadway from Paige Faure, and more.
