Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster are two of the biggest names in Broadway history, currently starring in one of the most beloved musicals ever, \u201cThe Music Man.\u201d For the Tony nominated duo, keeping each performance fresh means ignoring their own icon status and focusing on the present. \u201cSometimes, it's easier to fall back on things you know work,\u201d Jackman says. \u201cIt's a fine balance. At times you're like, 'ah, I don't know what's happening with this scene.' Then you find it, then you lose it. It's excruciatingly beautiful, and I love that about the process.\u201d \n \nIn this episode of \u201cIn the Envelope,\u201d Jackman and Foster break down their secrets to Broadway success, from finding small character moments to building a community backstage. \u201cThat's the gift of doing a show for an extended period of time\u2014you get this opportunity to grow with it,\u201d says Foster. \n \nBrought to you by UCLA's Professional Programs at the School of Theater, Film & Television.\n---\nBackstage has been the #1 resource for actors and talent-seekers for 60 years.
