Live With Rye and Friends on Broadway

Live With Rye and Friends on Broadway

When darkness falls and the work day is done, New York City's shimmering facade glows like never before! 

Every Thursday Evening at Bar 9!

 

 

There is energy pulsating through the city, the likes of which we haven't seen in quite some time.

And speaking of lights; nowhere do they shine so brightly as on the Great

White Way.

Once again packed with revelers and theater-goers, the neighborhood

around Times Square and Hell's Kitchen is bustling and then some. Restaurants are open

for business, actors have once again taken to the stage, wowing native New Yorkers and tourists alike, while clubs and hotels, at long last, feel oh-so alive!

No matter the time of day, you are sure to find the electronic billboards

that adorn Times Square lighting the way to one option after another to find good times and a much-needed respite from the travails of the past eighteen months.

Now, instead of attempting to come up with yet another hobby, we can learn within the confines of our apartment, we can thankfully exhale and make plans to go out, be footloose, put on our dancing shoes and have one blast of a time.

If you are seeking something fresh, different and fun to do then look no further than the fabulous evening that awaits you at Hell's Kitchen famed Bar 9, courtesy of talk show host and all-around entertainment maven Rye Myers.

Young, talented and on-the-rise, Rye Myers has already achieved success as the personable host of Live With Rye, an electrifying weekly digital talk show that features a diverse array of guests from Broadway and all across the spectrum of the entertainment industry.

You can catch the latest episode on YOUTUBE and Facebook, each and every Tuesday at 6 PM. Do NOT miss it!

Prior to the launch of his digital series, in the Fall of 2020, Rye was the founder of Ryethenewsguy.com, a platform whose focus is on the fun, light-hearted and positive aspects of the theater and pop culture in general.

Over the years, Rye has had the distinct privilege of interviewing luminaries such as Nathan Lane, George Takei, Laura Benanti, David Hyde Pierce and Matthew Broderick.

As the old-time vaudeville saying goes; That's Entertainment!

When Rye chats with his guests, whether it's outside a Broadway theater, in the studio, or on the red carpet; he always keeps true to his message of positivity and warmth, creating a safe space where the people who he is interviewing can be themselves without any fear of judgment.

Folks just seem to feel comfortable with Rye. He is naturally charming and keeps things real.

Broadway has been a passion of Rye's ever since he can remember. So, naturally, Aplez.com was curious as to his all-time favorite shows.

"Wow! This is a tough one." replied the young talk show host. "I love sooooo many shows. But, if I HAD to choose, I'd say the following......."

"The Inheritance is one of my fave shows ever. Had it not closed because of Covid, I would have seen both parts three times. The story is just beautiful, touching and meaningful. I see a lot of myself in the story and I see a lot of the gay community in it too.

Matthew Lopez's writing is unlike anything I've ever read. When I got the script, I couldn't put it down."

Rye went on to say that Come From Away is one of his favorite musicals of recent times.

"I have seen the show four times and I was even at the recent re-opening night. For me, the show is a perfect example of what a Broadway show should be. The message of love and human kindness is something we all need. I also like the fact that the show's score isn't your typical "big brassy musical".

One show that holds a special place in Rye's heart, (and this is going back a bit in time ), is Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

"The Donny Osmond film version of the play is what got me into the musical theater when I was in first grade. That was my inspiration."

If doing a weekly talk show and live appearances wasn't enough, Rye has recently embarked on a career as a coach for creatives of all types.

Whether you are a producer, composer, actor, singer, dancer, media personality, or writer, YOU can most definitely benefit from a session with Rye. Take your project, concept, idea or social media presence to the next level with Rye Myers.

"Sometimes people hit a wall creatively speaking or just need another voice to look at whatever it is they're working on. That's where I come in."

Many critics have started to compare Rye to long-established personalities such as Ryan Seacrest. That's a nice compliment and, as far as looks, talent and charisma go, the pundits are not off base at all.

But, when all is said and done, Rye Myers is very much his own guy. Rye has a certain something going for him that is both refreshing and unique.
