🎬 The REEL deal! Looking back over these clips, what hits me most are all of the extraordinary people I’ve had a chance to work with. I’m so grateful to the actors, writers, designers, musicians, executives, stage managers, musicians, teamsters, technicians, GMs, CM’s, producers, animators, editors, crews, and the numerous artists I’ve had the opportunity to tell stories with. Whether directing a show on stage or producing a tv special, it’s the collaborations I treasure most.

I’ve learned that opportunities are rare, but possibilities are endless. So thank you to everyone involved with all of these spectacular projects. Let’s keep on creating!

Kenneth Ferrone knows that at the heart of every production is community. From large scale live shows like #Rent to blockbuster tv like #Smash to more intimate stage plays, the Broadway Director-Producer shares how listening is key to building that community and creating art that matters. 🫶🎙️ Kenneth ferrone Broadway quotes taken in New York, New York by @kennethferrone

Sometimes a kind act isn’t an act at all — it’s simply listening.

Emmy-nominated producer and Broadway director Kenneth Ferrone (#Smash, #GreaseLive!) joins @robpeterpaul on The Art of Kindness this week to talk about leading with empathy, building trust in creative rooms, and why listening may be the ultimate act of kindness.

Tune in now wherever you listen to podcasts, friend 🎙️

GONNA MAKE IT ALONE from THE WANDERER is now playing nationwide on SiriusXM’s Underground Garage & On Broadway, and streaming on all music platforms.

Originally recorded by Dion in the early 1960s, we resurrected the song for the musical, then headed into Stevie Van Zandt’s studio to record this cover with @mikewartella , @_diegorodz_ , & @natalienicolegallo

The song isn’t about being alone at all. It’s about holding on. Surviving long enough to find your way back. That’s something I’m sure we all can relate to.

And that’s the heart of The Wanderer.

I’m endlessly grateful to create alongside these artists and excited to continue sharing this story with you all.
More to come. 🎙️🎶✨
