A special digital series featuring US national touring theatrical productions launches today, titled Broadway Profiles Show Spotlight Series, with the first episode focusing on award-winning musical, Hadestown.

This series is a sister arm to Broadway Profiles with Tamsen Fadal, the first nationally syndicated Broadway entertainment program.

The first episode on Tony Award-winning Best Musical, Hadestown, hears from Tony Award winning creatives AnaÏs Mitchell, Rachel Chavkin, and André De Sheilds; stars Reeve Carney and Eva Noblezada; and Tony Award-winning producers Mara Isaacs and Dale Franzen, as they discuss building and creating this production.

Fadal said, “I’m so excited the Broadway Profiles Show Spotlight Series, will be giving theater audiences across the country a behind-the-scenes look at the shows that will be touring to their city when Broadway gets back on the road.  Bringing theater back into people’s lives is a huge honor during this time and audiences really have something to look forward to with this spotlight on one of my favorite musicals, Hadestown.”

Lead producer of Hadestown, Mara Isaacs, said: “We miss our audiences – on Broadway and on tour. This new series will give audiences a taste of the outstanding productions in store for them as soon as performances are able to safely resume. We are grateful to Tamsen and the Broadway Profiles team for shining a light on the industry and those who make it run.”
