About this listen

This week on Broadway Buzz, we’re talking major returns, historic casting, vampire solo acts, and Tony Award robberies that still sting.


Jeremy Jordan is stepping back into that white suit as Jay Gatsby this fall, and fan hype is real. Plus, we’re celebrating Aisha Jackson joining The Great Gatsby as Daisy.


Across the pond, Cynthia Erivo is taking on Dracula — as everyone. 23 characters. One actress. One wild night in London theatre. We’ll break down Kip Williams’ “cine-theatre” style and why this production could redefine live performance.


And finally, let’s get into the Broadway heartbreaks that still haunt us — from Wicked losing to Avenue Q to Old Friends being completely shut out of the 2025 Tony noms.


Plus: our Quote of the Episode comes straight from Cynthia Erivo:

“I don’t need to be a star. I want to be a light.”


Me too Cynthia, me too.


Hit play and let’s get into the drama — both onstage and off.
