My Big Break on Broadway

The show begins with performer telling us they will be reading from their script “for neurodivergent reasons.” At first it felt like I could be listening to an audio book, but soon the story drew me in and I forgot all about the format. I watched and listened as they revealed their childhood dreams, their dramatic breakaway that prompted a nervous breakdown, and their journey from trauma to recovery. Poignant, funny, and life-affirming.

A commanding and beautifully raw look into where mental illness and childhood trauma can lead us and what it looks like to come out the other end stronger. I highly recommend everyone come to see this show, bring an open mind and open heart and you’ll get a powerful experience in return.

To be an audience member of this show, is to receive a gift. A gift of authenticity, strength, hope, and a soulful look into the lived experience of a creator who lives with impacts of trauma and a dream to star on Broadway.

A simple set creates an intimacy that supports you through the journey the writer takes you on. From British Columbia, to the bright lights of the Big Apple, and further you will be drawn along as the story unfolds.

My Big Break on Broadway is a must-see for anyone who lives with trauma, for those that seek hope, and for all who want to better understand facets of the human experience outside their own.

I highly recommend this experience.

A courageous and heartfelt performance that showed glimpses of her musical theatre chops. Careful sensitivity was shown for the subject matter and those who may be affected by some of the content. The three star review reflects that it was more like a live podcast or audiobook then theatre. But I enjoyed it and I commend the artist for her work and her survival.

Strong storytelling and acting. It's very healing for the artist to be performing again.

Beautiful , brave, honest and authentic

Brave performance. A trip to New York that doesn’t really fulfill her dreams. She gave a deadpan but warm performance with singing and dancing. Although she had other issue, the irony of the show is that she does have enough talent to be on Broadway. This performance stayed with me long after I left the theater.
