Family, both offstage and on, is at the heart of Broadway’s ‘Almost Famous’

Broadway News: The cast of Broadway’s new musical “Almost Famous” tends to refer to one another as “almost family.” That phrase was shared repeatedly on a recent Friday afternoon at the Jacobs Theatre where the production remains in previews ahead of a Nov. 3 opening night.

It is cool to read about theatre ensembles and /or companies being really close and where they get along with each other really well. I think it probably makes it a lot easier and a lot more fun to put on a show when everybody gets along with one another. It sounds like the cast and the creative team for ‘almost famous’ are relatively close too. I just think it is interesting to read about the dynamics in a theatre company. It is also interesting to read what the writer of the show says about his experience of the whole process and his thoughts about it, especially since it seems as though he has not had a lot of experience in the world of theatre. I just think it is really cool that they all seem to have a good bond with each other, because sometimes you hear the opposite or worse about shows.
