So in anticipation of this year\u2019s awards ceremony, we\u2019re spotlighting a few of the performers, collaborators, and creative forces behind nominated productions. Beth Callen follows her curiosity wherever the music leads. A multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and educator, she has traveled from indie folk stages and an all-female Guns N\u2019 Roses tribute band to some of Broadway\u2019s most acclaimed productions, including Head Over Heels, A Strange Loop, Suffs, and now The Lost Boys.  In this episode, Beth discusses the realities of building a career as a working musician; why mentorship matters for the next generation of artists; and how greater visibility for pit musicians can deepen our appreciation for the live magic that happens eight times a week on Broadway.   Links Beth Callen: https:\/\/bethcallen.com\/ The Lost Boys: https:\/\/www.lostboysmusical.com\/ Maestra: https:\/\/maestramusic.org\/ ","author_name":"Arts Unscripted with Monica Holt","author_url":"http:\/\/www.capacityinteractive.com","html":"
