Ep 109-Marisha Wallace: Focusing on MY dream - a podcast by Ayana Major Bey

On this episode I am joined by Broadway & West End actress and now recording artist Marisha Wallace. She is from North Carolina, lived in New York City for sometime, and moved to London when the opportunity presented itself. She was in the Original Broadway casts of Aladdin and Something Rotten. Appeared as Effie White in Dreamgirls on the West End and also originated the role of Becky in Waitress on the West End. She is signed to Universal Decca Records and is now set to release her new album entitled TOMORROW on Nov 27th. We discuss how her first pivot of having vocal surgery before college actually set her on the path she was supposed to be on; how redirection may come in the costume of failure but you have to trust your journey; and how once diversity becomes common place and not a trend, black artist especially black women artists will be seen for all they really are.
