If you’re still mourning the (temporary!) closure of your fave Broadway show, this podcast might help tide you over until we can return to the Great White Way. “The Ensemblist” shines the spotlight on some of the hardest working performers on Broadway—the ensemble. (Side note: We’re still waiting on a Tony Award for Best Ensemble!) Each episode features interviews with ensemble performers talking about anything and everything—from their toughest auditions to the teachers that inspired them.
