BROADWAY BESTIES
Picture it: the glittering lights of Broadway, the excitement in the air, and two theater-loving besties ready to take center stage. Welcome, theater aficionados, to "The Broadway Besties Show"!
Meet Amy and Mark, the dynamic duo here to bring you all the drama, humor, and showbiz magic of the Great White Way. Amy, with a love for Broadway as big as her collection of playbills, and Mark, whose passion for the stage rivals his ability to find the best post-show snacks (spoiler alert: it's always pizza).
Together, they're like the perfect musical number—Amy hitting the high notes of theater trivia while Mark provides the comedic harmony (and occasionally forgets the lyrics). From backstage secrets to star-studded interviews, they've got the inside scoop on everything you need to know to navigate the dazzling world of musical theater. So grab your top hat, your tap shoes, and maybe a bag of theater snacks (no judgment here—popcorn is practically a food group), because it's time to take center stage and let the show begin!
