Our panel of some of Broadway's brightest new performers -- Jennifer Damiano, Robin de Jesús, Tony Award winner John Gallagher Jr. (2007 for Spring Awakening), Jon Michael Hill and Krysta Rodriguez -- discuss the first professional show they ever saw; the moment they realized they wanted to perform and how their families responded to the news; how their very first jobs came about; the challenges of choosing between school and work; whether they like to go to other shows and what kind of audience member they are; and what they learn from their professional colleagues.
