Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Lisa Renee Pitts, cast member of the hit Broadway national tour, A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical.
As the acclaimed production prepares for its Kansas City engagement at Starlight Theatre from July 7–12, 2026, Lisa shares her remarkable journey from her Brooklyn roots to performing in one of America’s most celebrated musical productions. Created in collaboration with Neil Diamond himself, A Beautiful Noise tells the inspiring true story of how a kid from Brooklyn became one of the biggest recording artists and performers in music history.
Packed with timeless classics including “Sweet Caroline,” “America,” “Cracklin’ Rosie,” “Song Sung Blue,” “I Am… I Said,” and many more, the production celebrates the life, music, and enduring Legacy of Neil Diamond through unforgettable performances and spectacular staging.
During our conversation, Lisa talks about joining the national touring cast, growing up in Brooklyn, meeting Neil Diamond after a performance, life on the road, performing for audiences across America, bringing the show to Kansas City, and what makes this musical resonate with fans of every generation.
Recorded while the tour was making a stop in Hershey, Pennsylvania, this interview offers an inside look at one of Broadway’s biggest touring productions before it arrives in Kansas City.
