About this listen

 In this bonus episode of Closing Night, we revisit a compelling conversation with Broadway star Lauren Kennedy. While exploring the tricky politics and pressures of theater careers, Lauren candidly shares her experiences after Sunset Boulevard and Side Show that led into Lone Star Love. You heard only a couple of quotes from her in the main episode, but here you’ll get the full discussion of the intriguing yet chaotic behind-the-scenes story of a production that was derailed by unexpected challenges and the whims of a high-profile star. Lauren gives an insider's view on how creative visions can clash and projects can unravel despite the promise of a Broadway opening. The episode also touches on her connection with composer Jason Robert Brown and The Last Five Years, and how it prompted her transition into directing and producing, leading to her current role as the Executive Director of Theatre Raleigh. Listen to Lauren's full episode (and bonus episode) on Why I’ll Never Make It.
