Stevie (2025) is back for Season 24, and she’s proof that the right summer job can change everything. In this episode, she joins Aggie and Big Mac to talk about balancing an intense New York conservatory schedule, performing in “Pippin” off‑Broadway and Shakespeare’s “Pericles,” and even the chaotic morning making oatmeal.

Stevie shares why she chose to return to The Music Man: the “summer camp for grown‑ups” feeling, real connections with guests, and a cast that feels like family. She also reveals how the “welcome host” role evolved from cheerful greeter to on‑the‑floor showrunner.
