S1E12 Ashley Wells


Listen Later

Before Ashley Wells became the executive producer of Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma, she had an exciting ride to get to Broadway where she appeared in "Hello Dolly" with Carol Channing for several years. You'll be amazed at the differences between a first-run tour and a bus-and-truck one. But the fluke that landed her that job is the stuff of legends! And speaking of jobs, how did she survive in NYC when not on stage? She tells the story of a particularly interesting one. She also provides a behind-the-scenes look at the Hollywood casting process. Life and love took her to Orlando and then finally back home where she and her husband never thought they return. She now directs shows at Lyric in addition to keeping track of everything.  

Post-production by Fred O. Bishop
