North Texan Will Mann, a cast member of Hadestown, is looking forward to walking his dog through the Dallas Arts District when the national tour of Tony Award-winning musical stops in Dallas.
When the pandemic shut down Broadway and national tours, Mann remained in Brooklyn. While doing a play in St. Louis, he was cast in“Being able to do what I love is paramount,” Mann said. “I don’t believe our gifts are for ourselves. Our gifts are to be given so to be able to utilize my gifts is very fulfilling to me. It means the world to me that we can do what we can even though we’re not 100% where were before the pandemic.
Mann started a TikTok account to promote the talent of understudies and swings. Mann’s efforts come at a time when Charlotte St. Martin, the President of The Broadway League, blamed understudies and swings for Broadway cancellations during the recent Omicron surge. “Understudies and swings have always been the backbone of Broadway and they get the least amount of recognition. The talent it takes to do eight shows a week and to flip and to be someone else at a moment’s notice is huge,” Mann said.
