Jessica Vosk: Playing Elphaba in Wicked & Stanning Bette Midler
This week on Only Child: Broadway Edition, Bob the Drag Queen sits down with Broadway powerhouse Jessica Vosk: Elphaba alum, viral TikTok sensation, and the woman currently stepping into some very iconic shoes as C.C. Bloom in Beaches the Musical. They get into Jessica’s journey from finance to Broadway, the hustle behind sustaining a career, and what it really takes to survive eight-show weeks. She also talks about becoming a meme without trying and building a name in the industry on her own terms. Plus: backstage chaos and onstage pranks, Alicia Keys audition stories, Cher as the ultimate icon, and the little girl playing young Jessica who might already be coming for her job. And of course—very strong opinions on Tony Awards, sockless men, and why ranch dressing reigns supreme.

Cody Renard Richard: Broadway Secrets & Timothée Chalamet Ballet Drama
This week on Only Child: Broadway Edition, Bob the Drag Queen sits down with Tony-winning Broadway producer, stage manager, and multi-hyphenate creative Cody Renard Richard, the incredible force behind shows like A Strange Loop, Parade, and Othello starring Denzel Washington. They get into Cody’s Texas rodeo roots, from calf roping and growing up with horses to the unexpected path that led him from stage management to producing some of Broadway’s biggest shows. Cody also shares how he built his name (literally) and why being an “only child” might be the secret to success. The two also talk about the reality of Broadway life, grueling 8-show weeks, sudden closing notices, and what it actually takes to sustain a career behind the scenes. Plus: Chick-fil-A controversies in rehearsal rooms, Met Gala chaos (and a Rihanna encounter 👀), Cats: The Jellicle Ball, Black theater excellence, and Cody’s VERY strong opinions about who should’ve originated Elphaba.
