The position of a standby in a Broadway show takes a special type of person. It takes great mental aptitude and talent, not to mention the ability to go on with a moments notice, for one or many roles, oftentimes in a lead role where much is expected of you. Add onto that the juggle and brain power that the “mom life” requires. You may start your day (VERY early with your toddler) not knowing what part you may play on Broadway later that night. Will you have to belt those Eb’s or will you be able to catch up on your to do list? Jennifer Dinoia (Standy by for Elphaba in Wicked) and Pearl Sun (Standby for 5 roles at Come From Away), join us for an in depth chat at exactly what it means to be a standby (and a mom) on Broadway.

Fresh off the “Come From Away” national tour, Becky Gulsvig and Megan McGinnis talk about what it really means to tour once you have a child. When going out on the road with that “dream show” means everything from taking your baby to every city on the map, to traveling home every day off to see your 8 year old, or driving your car around the country with a toddler and the family pet-these mamas have the kind of parent travel advice that only comes from experience... lots and lots of experience.

2019 Tony Award Winner, Celia Keenan-Bolger, opens up about her motherhood experience; how bringing Scout Finch to life eight times a week has been as fulfilling as it has been depleting, and how she navigates that, all while raising her son with the same call to action that her parents instilled in her.
