Tour Survival Guide: 12 Tips for Life on the Road
Getting cast in an international tour is a huge thrill for any performer. You get to see the world and share your passion with foreign audiences. You'll enjoy many moments but also face challenges that come with continuous travel. While touring Japan, here are some tips I picked up along the way.
Looking Back at 2018: What I Learned At Women's Day on Broadway
On March 12th, 2018 I attended Women's Day On Broadway at the St. James Theater in midtown Manhattan. The four-hour event featured panel discussions on women’s greatest obstacles and accomplishment in the theater. Whether advocating for childcare, work life balance or representation on and off stage, the segments were moderated by Gayle King, Whoopi Goldberg, Juju Chang, and Meredith Vieira.
Let The Press Convene!
On Tuesday, my conductor, Brad, and I had a marathon day of four interviews at the Harmony Japan office. We met with E-Plus Ticket Agency, Tokorozawa Muse Ark Hall, Clara Ballet Magazine and Disney Fan Magazine. Brad reunited with journalists who have interviewed him for over a decade while I became acquainted with the different agencies.
My Second Week in Tokyo
As I settled into Shibuya, I was fascinated by Tokyo’s meticulous, color-coded transit system. Taxicab doors open automatically. Steering wheels are on the right side and people drive on the left. Pedestrians adhere to traffic rules and walk on the left on escalators and subway walkways.
My First Asian Adventure
It was a particularly busy day in midtown Manhattan. I completed three auditions, a Shakespeare coaching session, and saved the best appointment for last. I was called in for Disney On Classic, (DOC) a concert tour in Japan that features eight singers and a 60-piece symphonic orchestra.
