This week's episode features producer Julie Boardman, who talked about her Tony Award-winning career, The Museum of Broadway, and more!

"Broadway is such an integral part of New York City, it's the heartbeat of the city, and the fact that there isn't a museum dedicated to its history is, you would've thought it would've just been there always," Julie said regarding her idea to create the Museum of Broadway. "The idea that we're the ones creating this is kind of surreal, but we're really honored to be bringing the history to life and giving people an inside look at the community."
