A couple weeks ago, we introduced you to Kimberly Faye Greenberg, the Executive Producer/Creator of BroadwayBlogspot.com. In addition to maintaining this terrific website with her BroadwayBlogspot partners, Kimberly works simultaneously both onstage as an actor (currently in the Off-Broadway Hit Musical "Danny & Sylvia, the Danny Kaye Musical"), and behind-the-scenes as a wardrobe dresser on Broadway!
Dressing the stars is no easy feat, even for the most experienced professional, but Kimberly's dual life in the theater has certainly prepared her to dress for success. A recent article in Backstage Magazine, had this to say about the multi-talented artist, "For Kimberly Faye Greenberg, being a Broadway dresser while pursuing her onstage career is a perfect fit.... Greenberg has worked as a dresser for seven years on a host of shows, including The Lion King and currently Billy Elliot. At the same time, she has performed in musical theater across the country." It's a fascinating piece on what it takes to make it in the theatre business. Click here to read the full article.
