What Broadway Teaches Business About Working Under Pressure, From a Dresser With 25 Years Backstage

Teri Pruitt is a Broadway professional, speaker, and founder of Open the Aperture, where she brings Theatrical Solutions for Business Problems to organizations and leaders.

With more than 30 years as a working theatrical professional—including 25+ years on Broadway—Teri offers a rare perspective on what it actually takes to build trust, collaborate under pressure, adapt when things go wrong, and deliver consistently at a high level.

Her work draws from the theatrical process and from her Journeywoman’s View: the perspective of someone who has spent a career leading, influencing, problem-solving, and helping complex systems succeed from the middle rather than the top.

Through Open the Aperture, Teri translates lessons from professional theatre into practical conversations about leadership, teamwork, rehearsal, resilience, communication, and sustainable performance. Her central premise is simple: Broadway is the setting. The theatrical process is the framework. The human beings doing the work are the story.
