In Episode 3 of Game Changers Katharine sits down with Cody Renard Richard, the stage manager behind Hamilton, Ragtime, and 24 Broadway shows. From fighting to keep his first Broadway gig to launching a scholarship that's given $500K to emerging stage managers, Cody's journey proves that asking for what you want changes everything. This conversation gets real about navigating a "dying" Broadway, leading with joy under pressure, and why the theater industry is finally embracing multi-hyphenates. Plus: the moment he knew he'd made it, and why his friends are his biggest inspiration.
And That's Showbiz: where Broadway meets the digital age. Fan-forward. Industry-smart. Always authentic.
