Description

In the previous episode you learned bumpy road to Broadway for Nick & Nora, one of Broadway's biggest flops. And in this bonus interview episode, you'll hear from Mark Hoebee, the swing and dance captain for the show who actually worked with the creatives as actors were fired and the show kept changing up until opening night. He gives behind the scenes insights into the rehearsal process and some of the challenges this show faced just getting onstage.
You can also get an extra conversation with the show's lyricist on Why I’ll Never Make It. As one of Nick & Nora's creators, Richard Maltby, Jr gives even more backstory to how this musical failed and couldn't overcome all its obstacles. You can find that episode here.
