Dylan and Connor sat down with Broadway star Jewelle Blackman (Hadestown, The Lion King). As the spooky season reaches its peak, the twins kick off the chat with a post mortem (literally) on Halloween Ends and scary movies in general. Jewelle, the resident Lady of the Underground at Hadestown, joins in to get to know the guys, covering topics such as her Canadian roots, being an instrumentalist, transitioning from creating one of the Fates on Broadway to playing Persephone full-time, working with Lillias White, cutting her teeth as a Muse in the Hercules musical, and the ballsy moment of pursuing The Lion King in Toronto. They dive into the reality of performing on Broadway, being valued as an artist, and the importance of giving Black artists the opportunity to shine. Watch Jewelle slay in Hadestown eight times a week at the Walter Kerr Theatre!
