    From Tony-Winning Stage to Must-See TV: Ruben Santiago-Hudson Is Back Where He Belongs!

    When you say legacy, craft, and real storytelling, you’re talking about Ruben Santiago-Hudson. A Tony Award winner for Seven Guitars, Ruben has built a career that seamlessly moves between Broadway, film, and television—bringing depth and authenticity to every space he enters. Now, he’s back on Broadway in August Wilson’s Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, stepping into the role of Bynum Walker—a character rooted in history, spirit, and identity. But what makes Ruben so special is how effortlessly he carries that same gravitas onto the screen. TV audiences know him from standout roles on series like Billions, Castle, The Good Wife, and East New York, along with his powerful work in the HBO film Lackawanna Blues—which he also wrote. Whether he’s commanding a stage or anchoring a scene on screen, he brings truth to every moment. From directing the Tony-winning revival of Jitney to shaping August Wilson’s legacy for a new generation, Ruben continues to define what it means to be a complete artist. Now, he joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon to talk Broadway, television, legacy, and the stories that still need to be told. 🎧 Listen now on Broadway Podcast Network, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more!

    Chalk It Up to the Unknown: Inside Chalk Outline Portal!

    Tony Bordonaro and Ingrid Kapteyn are not just performing—they’re inviting audiences into a living, breathing experiment. Their latest work, Chalk Outline Portal, is an immersive “danceplay” that fuses movement, storytelling, and technology into something completely unpredictable. Built through their company Welcome to Campfire, the piece dives into grief, identity, and the shifting nature of self, all while blurring the line between performer and audience. With live sound mixing, real-time video, and even interactive gaming elements, no two performances are the same—this is theatre that reacts, evolves, and dares you to step inside it. Joined by Emmy-winning visual storyteller Roberto Araujo, who captures and enhances the experience through live video and documentary work, the team creates something that feels raw, intimate, and wildly innovative. At its core, Chalk Outline Portal is about vulnerability—about showing up as yourself, in real time, and letting the unknown lead. It’s messy, it’s human, and it’s exactly the kind of bold, genre-defying work that reminds us why live performance still matters. ✨ Listen to our full conversation with Tony, Ingrid & Roberto now on The Roundtable with Robert Bannon—streaming on Broadway Podcast Network, iHeart, Spotify, Apple, and more! #TheRoundtable #ChalkOutlinePortal #TonyBordonaro #IngridKapteyn #RobertoAraujo #OffBroadway #ImmersiveTheatre #NYCTheatre #DanceTheatre #BroadwayWorld #BPN #iHeartRadio Learn more about your ad choices.
