What happens when your favorite book starts speaking back? We sat down with two cast members and the assistant director from Rossford Drama’s upcoming production of Between the Lines—the Broadway musical based on the novel by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer.

In this episode, they share what it’s like bringing this whimsical, heartfelt story to the stage and why Rossford Drama continues to be one of the most connected theatre communities around.

The musical follows Delilah, a high schooler who escapes into a fairytale world—only to discover the prince inside her book might be just as real as she is. With a contemporary pop score and a story full of humor, heart, and imagination, Between the Lines explores what it means to write your own story, even when life doesn’t follow the script.

Performances are July 11 & 12. Tickets available at the door—don’t miss your chance to step between the lines!
