Ashley Wool: Broadway. That Happened.
They say it takes ten years of pavement-pounding to make it on Broadway. As Ashley Wool began her tenth year, Broadway shut down entirely.
During lockdown, she tentatively began speaking publicly about the autism diagnosis she received in 2008 and had refused to acknowledge for over a decade out of fear it would derail her chance at a performing arts career. She quickly became one of the most highly sought-after voices for autistic representation in the entertainment industry...and as it turned out, there were bigger plans in store for her artistry and her advocacy once Broadway reopened...
In Broadway. That Happened, Ashley Wool shares the story of her unconventional journey to Broadway as one of the original cast members of the groundbreaking musical How to Dance in Ohio, and how that experience made her fall deeper in love with musical theatre and the Broadway community than she ever dreamed possible.
