Creating a life as a performer is no easy task. In this session, we will hear insights from a woman who has spent four decades on Broadway playing iconic roles from Effie in Dreamgirls, Mama Morton in Chicago, to Grizabella in Cats, and her Tony Award winning performance in The Life. Through her extensive Broadway, concert, television, and film career (including the muse Calliope in Disney’s Hercules), she has remained authentic to herself and her craft. In this exclusive interview, we will investigate the lessons from the life and legacy of an Obie, Tony, and Drama Desk winner, Lillias White, from the 1980s to today, and how she brings her renowned voice and authenticity to all her work.
