Welcome to another Edition of The Roundtable on BroadwayWorld. This week we welcome Broadway’s own Jason Robert Brown to talk about his big Carnegie Hall concert coming October 25th with guests Heather Headley, Ben Platt, Shoshana Bean, J. Harrison Ghee, and more!

Jason Robert Brown is the ultimate multi-hyphenate – an equally skilled composer, lyricist,conductor, arranger, orchestrator, director and performer – best known for his dazzling scores to several of the most renowned musicals of our time, including the generation-defining The LastFive Years, his debut song cycle Songs for a New World, and the seminal Parade, winner of the1999 Tony Award for Best Score and the 2023 Tony for Best Revival of a Musical.

This year has seen the premieres of two new JRB musicals: The Connector, created with Jonathan Marc Sherman and Daisy Prince, which completed a triumphant run at New York’s MCC Theater in April; and Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, written with Taylor Mac based on John Berendt’s book and directed by Rob Ashford, currently running at Chicago’s Goodman Theatre and just announced coming to Broadway!

We talk his music, the state of Broadway, his Carnegie Hall Concert, & so much more!
