BRIEF INTERMISSION: It took Adam Hyndman ’12 five years to break into Broadway. In 2017, he landed a role in Aladdin but sustained a severe back injury while dancing. Physical therapy put his performances on hold, including a planned role in Moulin Rouge. After therapy, he was cast in Once On This Island, whose set appears here. When that production recently closed, Hyndman underwent surgery as a last option to return to dancing. He is now focused on making a full recovery.
