Guest: Lindsay Barenz

Lindsay is the founder and CEO of Maxamoo, a startup company in New York City that makes recommendations to theater beyond Broadway. She’s not an actor, director, or producer, she’s just an independent lover of theater who wants to make it easier for people to find diverse arts and culture in the City.

 

Guest: Tim Federle

Tim Federle grew up in San Francisco and Pittsburgh before moving to New York to dance on Broadway, where he appeared in the original casts of THE LITTLE MERMAID and GYPSY before coaching the child stars of BILLY ELLIOT. Tim’s debut novel for kids, BETTER NATE THAN EVER – described as “Judy Blume as seen through a Stephen Sondheim lens” by Huffington Post—was named a New York Times Book Review Notable Children’s Book of 2013, a Slate.com Favorite Book of 2013, and made Amazon and Publishers Weekly’s Best Books of the Year lists. The sequel, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, NATE!, follows Nate Foster’s further adventures onstage and off, and was named an Amazon Best Book of the Month.
