Brian Anthony Moreland joins Chrystal Genesis to discuss what it means to produce theatre at the highest level. As Broadway's only Black lead producer, Brian has become one of the industry's most influential creative forces, bringing productions including The Piano Lesson, Othello and Joe Turner's Come and Gone to the stage.

In this wide-ranging conversation, they discuss the producer's role, working with actors including Denzel Washington, Jake Gyllenhaal, Samuel L. Jackson, Taraji P. Henson and Cedric "The Entertainer", the enduring importance of August Wilson's work and why theatre remains one of the most powerful spaces for storytelling.

Together, they chat about representation, creative leadership and the challenge of balancing artistic ambition with commercial risk in one of the world's most competitive creative industries.
