Broadway Bound and Beyond

Broadway Bound and Beyond bridges what music students learn in school and what professional theater work asks of them. Working Broadway and touring musicians share how careers in musical theater are built: preparing for auditions, subbing in a Broadway pit, earning a chair, touring, and running the business side of a music career.

I'm Clayton Craddock. I've spent 26 years in musical theater on and off Broadway, including Memphis, Ain't Too Proud and Cats: The Jellicle Ball.

If you play, start with the free newsletter at broadwayboundandbeyond.com/subscribe, then the book and the Broadway Sub Playbook.

Parents and teachers of young musicians: you'll find videos here on college auditions, music school and what a theater career really looks like.
