High school playwright and rising theatre star Maddie Holdway joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon to talk about her incredible journey from student to viral sensation. Maddie is one of the creative forces behind FEDS Backyard Theatre, the grassroots company that captured hearts across social media for bringing bold, original musical theatre straight to their own backyard. With millions discovering their work online, Maddie and her collaborators are proving that big Broadway dreams can start anywhere — even right at home.
In this inspiring and joyful conversation, Maddie opens up about writing her original play “The Common Ground” while still in high school, what it’s like seeing your art go viral, and how storytelling helps young artists find their voice. Robert and Maddie also talk about creativity, courage, and what it means to create theatre for your generation — and your future.
