Today's edition of On The Road features my beautiful friend Samantha Pollino! Sam hails from Baltimore, Maryland and earned a BFA in Musical Theatre from the University of Cincinnati. In 2006 she made her Broadway debut in the musical Hot Feet. Since then she was an original member of the 2016 Hamilton Chicago cast (ensemble), in 2018 came back to Broadway in Head Over Heels (ensemble and Philoclea understudy), and has been a member of the touring Hamilton Philip company since 2019. Sam recently took a leave of absence from tour so she could originate an ensemble role in the new musical Bliss, which just finished a successful run in Seattle! I am so proud of this dynamic beauty and am excited for you to get to know her better!

As Black History Month comes to a close, I wanted to finally feature the gorgeous and mega talented Darilyn Castillo! She is a New York native and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre at The City College of New York. Darilyn is best known for playing Peggy Schulyer/Maria Reynolds in the touring company of Hamilton.

I am super excited to introduce you to my dear friend, Tia Altinay, in the newest edition of On The Road! Tia has performed on Broadway in Aladdin, Mary Poppins and A Christmas Story. Prior to her Broadway debut, she toured with Mama Mia!, High School Musical and Bombay Dreams. Tia is currently touring the country with Hamilton as a member of the female ensemble. She also understudies Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds! I hope you enjoy this interview with my wonderful friend, and if the Hamilton Philip tour passes through your city, please bring her a treat for me!

Today’s edition of On The Road features the incredibly talented Austin Scott! Austin grew up in Benicia, California, and is a San Francisco State University alum. You might recognize him from his time on the Hamilton national tour in which he played the title role of Alexander Hamilton. While Austin was in Washington, D.C., with the tour back in August, he met up with my friend Karl Magnuson, and they got some epic shots of him around the Capital! I’m so excited for you to meet my new friend. Make sure to check him out on Instagram AND on Broadway where he is currently starring as Hamilton!

This edition of On The Road features the handsome and talented Chaundre Hall-Broomfield! Dre is a Newburgh, NY, native and earned a BFA in acting from Purchase College. He’s currently traveling around the country with Hamilton's Angelica tour! Dre plays the roles of Hercules Mulligan and James Madison, so when his company was in Washington, D.C., I absolutely had to get a picture of him next to the Madison statue in the Library of Congress! I love how Dre's personality shines through all of these images. I hope you enjoy getting to know my new friend as much as I have!
