Broadwaysted Podcast Welcomes Caricature Artist and Actor Justin 'Squigs' Robertson

This week the Broadwaysted crew is painting the town all the colors with theatrical caricature artist and actor Justin "Squigs" Robertson. #EnemyoftheShow (and Kimberly's fiancé) Jay Schmidt again fills in for Kevin who's still in Chicago for the run of his musical "Daphne's Sunset" as the group pours out some beer and wine and lots of laughs. Squigs shares the origin of his nickname, his love of "High Spirits," and his process of immortalizing a show in a drawing.

The gang casts a dream version of "The Music Man" then gives a shout out to the Light Catchers before playing multiple epic Lights of Broadway Show Cards Games--including a take on "Heads Up" and our favorite "Show Cards Against Humanity." Everyone shares their favorite celebrity sighting while seeing a Broadway show (including when #MomOfTheShow @GailACooper high-fived Rosie O'Donnell) and Squigs let's Jay and Kimberly know how fashionable they were when they went to Indochine. Tune in to this picture-perfect episode and join us as we get Broadwaysted!
