For years, younger artists have spent countless hours looking through Broadway blogs, vlogs, and podcasts for advice on how they can get on Broadway and connect with all of the talented artists who contribute worldwide to the success of musical theatre. Starting during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Real Talk has gathered 50+ interviews with theatre professionals to get information on the many different ways to break into the industry, to connect you to theatre professionals everywhere, and most of all; to bring us together as peers and friends to talk about our love for the arts. Part of the Broadway Podcast Network.

episode 66: Meg Masseron, Playbill Reporter
Playbill Night-time Report, Meg Masseron, sits down to discuss her career in Theatre reporting as well as the importance of criticism and journalism.
Meg is a recent graduate of Marymount Manhattan College and joined to discuss her position as the night-time/weekend reporter at Playbill! Before that, she has been independently published in various theatre journalism hubs: TheatreMania, Theatrely, American Theatre, etc.
She is one of my best friends on Twitter and has brought to light so many issues revolving around the inclusivity and accessibility of Broadway.
Join the conversation as we discuss:
- The learned importance of networking and presentation of yourself as an artist
- An impactful divide between theatre criticism and journalism in modern years
- A comparison in print media as opposed to digital media – and the importance of each
- The overlap between marketing Broadway productions and writing articles centering around those same productions
- And much more!
