In the Spotlight Presented by Blumenthal Performing Arts
Behind the velvet rope and under the glow of the stage lights, there's a whole world of creativity and logistics that makes a live performance possible. In the Spotlight Presented by Blumenthal Performing Arts pulls back that curtain. Produced by the Queen City Podcast Network, each episode is a conversation that goes deeper than a standard program note. You'll hear from the artists themselves-both international stars and brilliant local creators-who bring the six Uptown Charlotte stages to life. But this podcast also focuses on the essential, often unseen work: the community initiatives, educational programs, and dedicated efforts to make the arts genuinely accessible to everyone. It’s about the stories behind the set designs, the passion in the rehearsal rooms, and the belief that a thriving city needs a vibrant cultural heart. Tune in for intimate discussions that explore not just what happens on stage, but why it matters.
