Major Attaway | Broadway & Voice Actor
from Dream Job with Marc Istook · host Marc Istook
From a church play to the longest-running Genie on Broadway, Major Attaway's journey has taken him from Forth Worth, Texas to Broadway in New York City, and beyond. Major talks about the exact moment at a performance of the Lion King that made him tell his mom, "I'm doing this" - no question mark. He opens up about learning his craft, learning patience, and learning to make it in a business that's notoriously tricky. And he shares the complicated experience of being one of the only Black performers in the rooms he grew up in, and why everything people like about him, he learned in Texas.
