So informative and fun

Mallory and Hailey do a great job interviewing people in various roles to help us gain a glimpse of what it’s like to work in the theater industry. I’m leaning it takes so much more behind the scenes to make the magic we see on stage. Anxious for the next episodes!

I’m obsessed

This podcast is so brilliant. Haley and Mallory have such great chemistry and are so much fun to listen to. As someone who has worked in both film and theater it’s so refreshing to have a podcast give a much deserved spotlight to the people who work so hard behind the scenes to make a production work. It sheds light on just how many people and how much really goes on behind the shows and productions we all know and love. I’m a huge fan and can’t wait to hear more!
