side jobs, tour life, audition stories + performance anxiety with Gerianne Perez (In Transit)

Gerianne Pérez made her Broadway debut as Kathy in Broadway's first a cappella musical, In Transit, at the Circle in the Square Theatre. With a book, music and lyrics by Academy Award winner Kristen Anderson-Lopez (Frozen), James-Allen Ford, Russ Kaplan and Sara Wordsworth, and vocal arrangements by Deke Sharon (Pitch Perfect), In Transit was directed and choreographed by three-time Tony Award winner, Kathleen Marshall. Gerianne has also been seen performing roles in Guys and Dolls, Grease, In the Heights, and Newsies. She also opened and closed the First National Tour of the critically acclaimed musical Waitress, with music by Grammy nominee, Sara Bareilles, and direction by Tony Award winner, Diane Paulus.  Gerianne has been praised by critics for her sultry vocals and was hailed by the New York Times as "an impressive singer...seemingly effortless." Her voice can be heard on the tracks of "Fever," "Locked out of Heaven," and "Hallelujah" on the Vocalosity cast album, as well as the entirety of the Original Broadway Cast album of In Transit. She has appeared on stages from New York City to Shanghai, and venues including 54 Below, Joe's Pub, Town Hall, the Beacon Theater, Lincoln Center, and Carnegie Hall. She is a proud graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts.

In this episode, Gerianne chats with host Maggie Bera about college, tour life, audition stories, side jobs, Actors' Equity, Broadway and performance anxiety.
