Growing up, seeing theater wasn’t a big part of actor John McGinty’s life due to lack of access. When his grandmother took him to see Phantom of the Opera on the West End, it was a life-changing moment that called him to be a part of it. With deaf representation slim to none on stage growing up, and the commercial theater world being heavily auditory, John had to push through roadblocks with courage and persistence. He had to “knock that door down and keep on doing that.”
John made his Broadway debut in 2018 in Children of a Lesser God, an opportunity that challenged him in new ways as he portrayed a deaf character that also had to speak. In this episode, he shares what this experience was like, an idea he pitched that reshaped an entire production, and the connection he has with music. He also discusses the younger generation’s role in the future of theater, and his hopes for a committed investment in EDIA in the industry.

How I Got On Broadway is a podcast that explores the real journeys of theater professionals and how they landed their first Broadway jobs. Our aim is to pull back the curtain on stories that are rarely told and offer transparent conversation about what it truly takes to make it to Broadway in any capacity. Figuring out how to break into the theater industry can feel confusing and intimidating. We want to make the path a little clearer.
