Being on a National Tour is likely a pretty exciting experience for many performers, especially those who may be just starting out. For one, it’s a great step in a career, and it’s also a very respectable way to earn a living as an actor. Many performers may live and audition in New York City, but chances are a lot of them are originally from other cities around the country. And these cities couldn’t be more proud when one of their own gets cast in a National Tour. Below are a few links to articles from media outlets around the country that shine a spotlight on the performers whose names YOU may not know (at least not yet) but who are, and likely always will be, big stars in their hometowns.
