Created by the North American touring company of the Broadway musical COME FROM AWAY, ‘Conversations from Away” shares perspectives from the road as we navigate re-emerging into public spaces after our 18-month shut down, share stories and re-focused objectives surrounding our ongoing journey with advocating for intentional compassion, kindness, radically inclusive storytelling, and social justice, and find ways to uplift our community.

episode 4: The Kettle's Always On: Touring with a Long-Running Show
Over 750 Shows in 65 different cities across North America. We opened our tour in October of 2018 and, save for that pesky pandemic-related shutdown, we are still going strong! In addition to getting the job done eight times per week and keeping the show running, we have to stay in optimal health while keeping performances fresh and our spirits high, no matter what curve balls might come our way. How does it all work? Listen in as Christine chats with two other original company members who have been here since day one! Shawn Pennington (Production Stage Manager) and Kiana Weber (Fiddle) discuss what it's like to work on a long-running show.
