LISTEN ON:

We’re not just telling stories—we’re getting into what it actually takes to run a show. From Broadway to concert tours to large-scale, out-of-the-box spectacles, each episode dives into the real leadership, resilience, and artistry behind live entertainment.

We talk about the unglamorous, high-stakes, problem-solving work that stage managers do to keep the wheels turning. From managing diverse teams to building safer, more inclusive backstage spaces, we dig into the evolving role of stage management at the intersection of technology, creativity, and culture.

The Half-Hour Podcast is about the people who make live entertainment possible—and how we’re shaping its future one show, one cue, and one conversation at a time.

If you’re a working professional, an up-and-comer, or just curious about the magic that happens before the lights come up, you’re in the right place. This is where the real work of live entertainment gets its due.
