'The Connector,' A New Musical About Competing Journalists

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Feb 14, 2024

In the new original musical "The Connector," an aspiring new journalist named Ethan Dobson (Ben Levi Ross) joins the staff of the beloved magazine, The Connector, quickly rising through the ranks. His rise comes much to the dismay of his new friend Robin, who has been working at the magazine for much longer. But is Ethan really everything he seems? We speak with composer Jason Robert Brown, director Daisy Prince, and star Ben Levi Ross about their new show, which is running at the MCC theater through March 17.
