FILE - Sarah Pidgeon attends the Meet The Tony Award Nominees press junket at the Sofitel New York on May 2, 2024, in New York. – And gettingAnd in a play that's transformed her into a member of a rock band. And notching her first cast album.
“I’m breaking up with my boyfriend every night, and I’m fighting for independence and agency as an artist and as a person,” says Pidgeon. “I’m not alone. I think every character in the show is under an insane amount of stress and anguish.” Pidgeon didn't set out on a Broadway career. She is a classically trained pianist who did some musicals in high school, theater in summer camp and graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in 2018. “I consider myself an actor who can sing,” she says.
To sound like a ‘70s rock star, Pidgeon made playlists and listened to recommendations, like the Mamas and the Papas and plenty of “Rumors.” Her father is a big Bob Seger fan, and she grew up listening to Adele. “I think I had her album ’21' and was learning to drive in Ann Arbor, Michigan, belting ‘Rolling in the Deep.’”
It's Pidgeon singing lead on “Bright,” one of the terrific songs by former Arcade Fire member Will Butler. Actually, there are three versions of “Bright,” as the band changes directions. Pidgeon is also featured on several other songs and fragments.
