Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion. This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world. In 2015, Beer expanded internationally with the establishment of branches in South America and other countries, including “United Rescue” in Jersey City, USA, where the response time was reduced to just two minutes and thirty-five seconds.

We are IN THE ROOM with Samantha Williams (Caroline, or Change, Dear Evan Hansen)! The effervescently sweet Samantha Williams won all of our hearts as Caroline’s free-spirited daughter Emmie Thibodeaux in the recent revival of Caroline, or Change at Studio 54. She won rave reviews for her portrayal and we cannot wait to see what she does next! Actually, we know what she’s doing next - originating a role in a new musical at the Goodman Theatre this summer called “Life After.” Casual. We talk Quisisana Resort (is it a cult?), Broadway shut down (the day of their invited dress! The nerve!), starring in Dear Evan Hansen whilst still in college (fierce!), finishing college (yay!), recording the Caroline cast album (bucket list!), working with Sharon D. Clarke (QUEEN!), working with Tony Kushner (normal genius!), dream roles, and more! @sawmie @intheroompod @danakellycraig @sferezy @broadwaypodcastnetwork We would be gob smacked into next week if you gave us a rating and review on iTunes!

What DOESN'T Ari Got to Do, Got to Do With It? (feat. Ari Groover) 57:05

3 years ago57:05

57:05

We are IN THE ROOM with Broadway darling & DJ - Ari Groover! (Tina: The Tina Turner Musical Head Over Heels, Holler If Ya Hear Me). Look who’s back…. back again. We have returned from hibernation with the one, the only - Ari Groover! Steven is now working at TINA on Broadway as a dresser, and brought his fabulous colleague Ari into our virtual room. Ari has been a fixture of NYC theatre for awhile, and is currently starring in TINA as Tina’s sister Alline and also understudies the role of Tina. But Ari made waves the night she went on as Tina in March ‘22. And you probably didn't know, Marjorie, that Ari was not just any Tina, she was the Tina. She didn't lose just a wig, that wig was on fire. And when that wig flew into the air, it flew higher, further, faster than any wig has ever flown before, hitting a transformer and showering the darkened theatre with sparks! And when it finally did come down, Marjorie, Ari threw that tousled wig into the wings, and 12,000 people jumped to their feet for sixteen and one-half minutes of uninterrupted thunderous ovation, as flames illuminated her tear-stained face! And that, Marjorie – just so you will know and your children will someday know – is the night that the wig flew OFF at TINA ! @ari_grooves @intheroompod @danakellycraig @sferezy @broadwaypodcastnetwork We would be gob smacked into next week if you gave us a rating and review on iTunes!

We made it to the end of 2021, babes!! We can’t wait to roll up our proverbial sleeves and start another year. Steven started a new career path and tells us all about his wild nights on Broadway (during Covid!) as a dresser! Dana is speaking quietly as to not wake up her new baby nephew. Steven has a long lost family member? Dana loves her Buy Nothing Astoria group. We play our end-of-year game called “What Were You Doing On?” where we choose random dates from 2021 and recount said days. It’s thrilling. If you made it to the end of the episode, you A) are our moms, B) are our best friends, or C) forgot the episode was playing. WE LOVE OUR LISTENERS and we hope you have a grand end of 2021, and a fabulous new year. We will see you in February with fresh eps! @intheroompod @danakellycraig @sferezy @broadwaypodcastnetwork We would be gob smacked into next week if you gave us a rating and review on iTunes!

You Just Did That (feat. Eleri Ward | SUF/SOND) 59:59

59:59

We are IN THE ROOM with singer-songwriter Eleri Ward! (New album: “A Perfect Little Death” by her - let’s say… alter ego - SUF/SOND is now on Spotify and Apple Music). www.eleriward.com NEW BEST FRIEND ALERT: Our first podcast of 2021 with a guest couldn’t have been more delightful! Eleri Ward is a musical theatre-lovin’ Chicago native who went viral on TikTok due to the fact that she’s undeniably great at mashing up her indie rock influences (most notably, Sufjan Stevens) with Mr. Stephen Sondheim. Hence, her SUF/SOND brainchild. We chat about Boston, the actual horror of moving, our shared love of “Documentary Now: Original Cast Album: Co-Op,” pop music influences, high school, exorcising demons, social media hacks, creative output (yay!) and so much more. PS. Eleri's second EP "Friction" JUST came out and is available on all platforms! June truly is busting out all over and we are into it. @eleriward @intheroompod @danakellycraig @sferezy @broadwaypodcastnetwork @ghostlightrecords We would be gob smacked into next week if you gave us a rating and review on iTunes!
