In this episode, we sit down with Tony Galde, a seasoned Broadway performer who has appeared in multiple Broadway shows, including eight years in the much beloved show "Wicked." We get to dig into personal grit and determination, his training, Broadway auditions, and his favorite role. Tony also talks with us about the value of ensemble work, as well as the mindset needed to have a successful career. You'll also hear about his transition to a teaching role at Orbit Arts Academy, which he co-founded with Chris Hall. This is an episode you'll want your own Broadway hopeful to hear!
