Description

On this very special episode of “DANCIN’ Man: A Fabulous Invalid Podcast”, Jamie and Rob talk with Broadway legend Wayne Cilento, the director and musical stager of DANCIN’. 2023 marks Wayne’s 50th anniversary of working on Broadway, first as a performer in the original companies of shows like “Seesaw” and “A Chorus Line”, and later as a choreographer and director on such hits as “Wicked”, “Aida”, and “The Who’s Tommy”. Wayne talks about his experience working with Bob Fosse on the original production of DANCIN’ in 1978 and Fosse’s final show, the 1986 production of “Big Deal”. He also chats about his varied career as a choreographer and director, and his vision and process for putting DANCIN’ back on stage in 2023.

The Fabulous Invalid is a theatrical production company founded in 2018 by Jamie DuMont and Rob Russo with the mission to illuminate untold stories and fascinating personalities on air and on stage with a reverence for the past, a bold outlook for the future, and a dash of panache.  The company takes its name from the title of a 1938 backstage play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart that has since become a loving nickname for Broadway itself—always deemed on the verge of decline, yet always bouncing back: the fabulous invalid! “The Fabulous Invalid Podcast” presents essential conversations with a curated roster of the best, most important, and innovative theatre-makers working today.  Hosts Jamie DuMont and Rob Russo released 100 episodes from 2018 to 2021, and continue to release bonus episodes. As co-producers of Bob Fosse’s DANCIN’ on Broadway, Jamie and Rob are now hosting “DANCIN’ Man: A Fabulous Invalid Podcast” —a limited podcast series featuring exclusive, behind-the-scenes interviews with members of the cast and creative team of this much-anticipated Broadway revival.
