Behind the Curtain: A Look at Broadway's Elite with Ken Davenport, Scott Pask, & Marc J. Franklin

Off the Matt Wall Podcast

This week alone, Broadway grossed almost $32 million dollars in ticket sales. This podcast will take you behind the scenes of some of the most infamous figures on Broadway. One of Broadway's most influential businessmen, Tony Award-winning Producer Ken Davenport shares the time he challenged the Backstreet Boys, the meaning of producing a show, and his emotions of winning the Tony Award for Once On This Island. Long thought to be a creative genius, Tony Award-winning Scenic Designer Scott Pask explains his thought process of how he designs a show (Book of Mormon, Mean Girls, Something Rotten, Waitress), the time he dropped his Tony Award on the floor, and a story involving Sarah Jessica Parker. Playbill Staff Photographer Marc J. Franklin talks about photographing his idols on Broadway, following Hamilton stage manager Amber White around, and watching the first woman of color play the lead role in the musical Waitress. Welcome to the wild world of Broadway.
