Dylan and Connor are joined by Avery Wilson (The Wiz, The Voice). We’re easing on down, y’all! This week we’re chatting with the Scarecrow himself: Avery Wilson. This superstar, making his Broadway debut in The Wiz, welcomes us to the merry old land of Oz in this high energy convo. Recorded on the heels of the twins’ spring show binge, Connor and Dylan kick off the chat with an ode to Sleep No More at the McKittrick Hotel. Then Avery shares his musical journey to Broadway, with childhood visits to the Big Apple with his brothers (only causing minimal trouble). He speaks about breaking the mold of expectations and going from the music industry to the theatre world, and his countless auditions before landing Scarecrow. He gushes over his talented castmates including Nichelle Lewis, Kyle Ramar Freeman, and Phillip Johnson Richardson, and the unique stamp they’re all putting on their iconic roles. Keep listening for stories about his experience on The Voice, coming out as bisexual, and bringing positive representation to the world. We hear all about The Wiz’s opening night, Cowboy Carter thoughts, and so much more in this fun chat with Avery!
