This is my favorite podcast!

Kerry Butler has created something truly special with the Breaking Broadway podcast. This is such a great place to find tangible, actionable information about what it takes to be a performer in this industry today. She has incredible guests on the show, and she is so knowledgeable herself! I’ve been training and performing for a long time, and I’ve continued to learn new things and be reminded of lessons I’ve forgotten through listening to Breaking Broadway. This is the number one podcast I recommend to actors and performers, and I’m excited for more episodes!

Fun and Full of Info!

The majority of the podcasts I listen to involve people in the performing arts world talking to others about their lives and careers. This podcast is exactly that, and absolutely top-notch! Kerry Butler is not only a font of interesting information, she is a great host who draws out the best in her equally interesting guests. Listening to this podcast is not only informative but it is fun, as I highly recommend for both entertainment and educational purposes. I feel inspired!

Advice for Breaking onto Broadway!

I love how informative and helpful these podcasts are for anyone wanting to make a great first impression at their audition, or fine tuning their skills while waiting for that first big break! The advice here is priceless and exactly what my daughter has been learning at her Broadway Training Workshops, so take notes and do what they tell you and you’ll have a better chance of Breaking onto Broadway!! Thank you Kerry Butler for your amazing interviews and please keep going!!
Super duper cool!

This podcast is a GEM for young performers looking to understand this industry!

We are LOVING Kerry’s Broadway podcast! Our 16-year-old daughter is getting ready to pursue a BFA in MT- will be a crazy process coming up soon and all of the content that Kerry addresses so positively and genuinely in her podcast is extremely helpful. Young performers (and those already in the industry) can gain helpful advice, lessons learned, and relevant tips and tricks as they navigate this MT world and pursue their dreams! Thanks for putting together such an incredible podcast for young performers and for those who want to be on Broadway. The guests Kerry chooses to interview are fantastic. We appreciate all of the work Kerry puts into her performing and her podcast!!!

This podcast is everything colleges should be teaching young actors...

What a gift this podcast is! People who truly love what they do can’t help it but shine a light that others are drawn to and guided by. Kerry is a light, plain and simple (though she is neither plain nor simple).
