The second day of my Sacramento trip with Broadway San Jose was so amazing! If you missed day one, you can read it here.

We woke up and enjoyed breakfast, then headed straight to the SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center. The cast and crew were already buzzing around the venue preparing for the second evening’s performance of “Some Like it Hot.” A few members took some time out of their busy schedule to meet with us and fill us in on some inside info from the traveling Broadway show!

It was really fun to learn about the ins and outs of a traveling show and how much work it actually is! I am starting to think the cast and crew never sleep! They are either performing or preparing for the show all day long, six days per week. On the seventh day, they are busy traveling to the next show as well as packing and unpacking the show! They work hard!

I had the honor of interviewing the Star Dresser and Jerry/Daphne actor Tavis Kordell. It was interesting to learn about the handmade costumes, the work it takes to keep up the costumes on an almost daily basis, and how they are specially made for each actor. The costumes are couture, and each piece is truly special. I wish you could see them up close!

Of course, you can see them on stage this upcoming October when “Some Like it Hot” is on stage in San Jose! You can find tickets to the show at BroadwaySanJose.com. My family and I will be attending, I hope you go too! It will be amazing!

This was such a fun trip and I am grateful that Broadway San Jose included me so I could learn about the costumes and see everything up close. I have a deeper appreciation for Broadway now and can’t wait to see the show!

Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to visit BroadwaySanJose.com for details and ticket info!

XOXO

We are in Sacramento! Earlier this month I joined Broadway San Jose and additional content creators for a quick trip to Broadway Sacramento. We enjoyed a performance of “Some Like it Hot!” and had the opportunity to interview both cast and crew members. Stay tuned for details!

We traveled to Sacramento by Amtrak; which I have to say, was much more relaxing than driving up there! After our train adventure, we settled into our hotel and enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Cafeteria 15L. The tater tots were delicious and my entree, Rigatoni Bolognese, was divine. Yum! If you are ever in the Sacramento area, be sure to stop in for a meal, it’s so good!

After dinner, we headed over to the Safe Credit Union Performing Arts Center. The venue was built a few years ago and has the modern technology needed to ensure ideal acoustics. Love that!

“Some Like it Hot!” was absolutely amazing, and slightly different than the movie. That being said, I will not give out any spoilers because I want you to pick up tickets and see the show when it arrives here in San Jose in October. You will love it!

Well, since I can’t give out any spoilers, please stay tuned for more details and the interviews! They will post later this week on Instagram and here on the blog.

Thanks for stopping by and visit BroadwaySanJose.com for show details and ticket information. I hope you pick up tickets for the show! It’s a must-see!
