Cinco Paul is the writer behind Despicable Me, The Secret Life of Pets, and Schmigadoon! on Apple TV+. Today, he sits down with Katharine Quinn to talk about what it actually feels like when the thing you've been carrying for three decades finally lands on a Broadway stage. We get into the songs he cut, the ones he wrote in a panic, the director who changed everything, and the couple he watched kiss each other in the front row during previews.

And That's Showbiz is Broadway for the digital age: fan-first, industry-honest, and always in the room where it happens. Subscribe.
