  • Blake Ross, Burnt
    Dec 3 2021
    Ollie Southgate talks all things Broadway publicity, REBECCA, and "Burnt" with reporter and fellow BPN host Blake Ross. “Rebecca” the musical was supposed to be the next “Phantom of the Opera”, Broadway’s multi-billion dollar hit. Instead, “Rebecca” turned into one of the wildest, most bizarre, true-crime scandals the stage has ever seen. When a multi-millionaire stranger suddenly dies, a fire is lit that ends up consuming everyone involved in the show. In Burnt, the story of “Rebecca” winds its way through secret stings, many courtrooms, prison and freedom — and when the smoke finally clears, we’re left to wonder: who is really to blame and how in the hell did this happen?

    As the pandemic continues to keep hundreds of thousand of arts jobs around the world hanging in the balance, now for over a year in many cases, we discuss a serious but often undiscussed issue faced by the live entertainment industry around the world. On today’s show I’m talking to arts industry survivor Meg Massey, the woman behind burnout coach Maggie Supernova, about the highs and lows of working in the commercial theater business and the warning signs to watch out for to avoid letting a high speed career meet a brick wall. We discuss how her passion and personality helped her thrive in the arts but ultimately reach a boiling point, the traits that leave both employees and employers more susceptible to the perils of burnout, and how she’s now using her experience to help others avoid it.
