Madeline Smith, who recently conducted this summer’s epic Ragtime on Ellis Island concert in New York Harbor, makes her Broadway debut October 14 conducting the Broadway production of Waitress.
At age 24 she is believed to be the youngest woman to conduct in a Broadway pit. Smith has served as rehearsal pianist, music assistant, and copyist on the production.
”I am over the moon to take the stage with the wonderful cast and band of Waitress tonight,” she told Playbill.com. ”I’m so grateful to the mentors and colleagues who have been in my corner and shown me such generous support as a newcomer to this community.”
