Ms. Greenberg said: “BroadwayBlogspot.com was conceived to garner more appreciation for the people who work behind-the-scenes in the theatre. We’d also like to inspire and inform theatre-lovers about the other career opportunities available to them besides acting.”
Mr. Childers said: “The Glamorous Life Series was created to bring a better understanding of what it takes to be a working actor in New York City, and to receive advice from professionals in the field to help make that dream become a reality.
