Today, I’m thrilled to announce my interview with one of Broadway’s best young directors, Sammi Cannold. Tune in to this interview to hear stories and insights from her amazing career, including how a DM led to her Broadway debut, the ins and outs of being an assistant director, how she first contacted Diane Paulus, putting Ingrid Michaelson into NATASHA, PIERRE, AND THE GREAT COMET OF 1812, her inspiration for staging VIOLET on a bus, staging RAGTIME as a young director, her guideposts for casting the role of Eva Peron, the immersive production she’d still like to do, how she made everyone involved with HOW TO DANCE IN OHIO feel comfortable along the way, looking at Hal Prince’s notes on the show, how she uses her mathematical mind in her directing work, and so much more.
