“Bring the Mask Home” with Austin Colby

Connor and Dylan are joined by Austin Colby (Masquerade, The Great Gatsby). He’s here… the Phantom of Masquerade in NYC! Before welcoming this sweet man into the conversation, the twins chat about Love Island USA ahead of its finale. Connor roots for #Brinity and Dylan crushes on Caleb of course! Austin, also known as Mr. Caroline Bowman, brings his charm, wit, and authenticity to the pod. Currently starring in Masquerade, the immersive Phantom of the Opera experience in New York City, Austin pulls the curtain back on this unbelievable production. He speaks on seeing the show for the first time, auditioning for it, and making the Phantom his own. Austin reflects on his journey from studying music education to musical theatre, his performing roots at the Signature Theatre as Tony in West Side Story, and more. We get into The Great Gatsby, y’all! Austin spills on the true drama of nearly being released from his Gatsby contract, being shirtless onstage, and social media antics with Jeremy Jordan. Stick around as we cover Caroline’s Norma Desmond debut, ideas on the future of immersive theatre, and beyond. Don’t miss Austin in Masquerade this summer in NYC!
