The winning aspiring artist also will walk away with a monetary prize of up to $10,000 plus the opportunity for financial advice from a Prudential Advisor \u2013 something that Johnson says is almost as important as landing that first major role.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI was so proud of myself for accomplishing my dream to make it on Broadway, and I wanted to live in the moment, but I also knew it was important to plan for my financial future,\u201d notes Johnson. \u201cAnd I\u2019m glad I did because it saved me during the COVID pandemic. That\u2019s why I\u2019m excited to team up with Prudential again and give these aspiring artists not only the opportunity to perform on stage in New York but also think about financial planning early in their theatre careers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe four finalists were selected from a large pool of entries from across the country. Singers submitted a 3-minute audition video, including a 60-second performance of one of five pre-selected Broadway songs. The top auditions were then reviewed and reduced to 10 semi-finalists by 2023 Tony nominee and Shucked star Kevin Cahoon; Into the Woods star Cole Thompson; Kimberly Akimbo star Alli Mauzey; current Broadway Elphaba Alyssa Fox; and Some Like It Hot star Adrianna Hicks. Contest judges Johnson, Rubin and Ren\u00e9 Louis then selected the top four.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThis was a really difficult decision!\u201d said casting director Rubin, who is best known for her work on The Producers. \u201cWe saw such talented people \u2013 all of whom had great stories to tell. I\u2019m excited to work with the finalists when they come to New York.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe submissions from around the country were incredibly inspiring \u2013 the future of our industry is definitely exciting!\u201d said renowned composer and arranger Ren\u00e9 Louis, who is known for his work on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Ben Platt Live from Radio City Music Hall. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to meeting the finalists and experiencing their talent live on stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe four finalists will be flown round-trip to NYC where they will get a studio session with Johnson to rehearse their contest submission at Boulevard Carroll Studio. The four finalists also will be Prudential\u2019s guests for a pre-show dinner followed by an evening at the theatre and post-performance talk-back with select cast members. The winning artist will be selected real-time after the performances on Sept. 9.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Prudential Stages on Broadway Brought to You by Playbill contest is part of the 2023 <i>Curtain Up<\/i>: A Broadway Festival, which takes place in Times Square Sept. 8-10.
