Broadway+
The people of Broadway are truly talented in their abilities to sing, dance, and act. But their abilities don't end there! This page highlights the "extra-curricular" talents that the stars of Broadway use to bring even more magic into the world. The list will focus primarily on works that the actors who are in touring shows create, because they are who I meet, but I'm open to adding anything done by any Broadway person, onstage or behind the curtain! Let me know what I should add to the list.
​
This list will most likely be primarily books, but other works will be highlighted as well, as soon as I know about them. They can include music, videos, podcasts, YouTube channels, and so on. They are listed alphabetically by the artist's last name.

Mark Aldrich
An "Official" Newsie (Seitz) and cast member in countless productions, including the 2019-20 tour of My Fair Lady (which is how I met him), Mark has written this incredible series starring a group of Broadway actors who have wild and wonderful adventures up and down the Eastern Coast. I've read the first two more than once and couldn't put them down!​
kaitlyn hopkins
I saw Kaitlyn Hopkins in Disney's On The Record. It was an incredible show and she was amazing! I loved her voice, and when I saw she ​had a CD available, I bought it right away. It's no longer available from the site listed in the program, but you can get it from a variety of places online including Amazon and Spotify, among others. The image of the CD is from her website, kaitlynhopkins.net, where you can also see her other CDs. ​​
tiffany tatreau
Tiffany came through Greenville, SC, in the touring production of A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical. ​I don't think I actually met her in person, but her bio in the program mentioned this book that she co-authored, so I figured it should be listed here! It's titled Taylor Swift by the Book: The Literature Behind the Lyrics, and it provides insight and depth into the lyrics of many Taylor Swift songs.​
