Broadway's Moulin Rouge is playing right now at Louisville's Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts, and you might see a familiar face on stage.

Lexington native Nathan Pfister is part of the ensemble in this traveling Broadway cast.

Our Kelsey Starks caught up with them backstage to talk about his homecoming for tonight's top Art tapestry segment that looks at arts and culture.

This is where all your dreams come true.

Nathan Forsters dream was to one day dance on Broadway.

The Moulin Rouge grew up in Lexington, Kentucky, went to Scapa, the school for the Performing Arts, fourth through 12th grade, which was truly like, very formative.

I'm very lucky to have gotten to go to an art school at fourth grade.

He went on to study dance at Western Kentucky University and moved to New York with a dream of making it to a Broadway stage.

But it was his time at Kentucky Governor's School for the Arts that truly made up his mind.

I think it was that moment where you do dance like a hobby and like middle school and high school, and then going to this program where it truly was like free college and being like, oh, wow, this is actually that I can do for a career making a career out of dance isn't easy, though.

After years of dancing in various productions and picking up side gigs to pay the bills, including a job selling merchandise in the lobby of Broadway's Moulin Rouge last August, Nathan got a call.

It is truly, like they say, that your life changes and they and your dreams come true.

And like my, my dreams came true.

And like one phone call.

The call was to be part of the traveling ensemble in Broadway's Moulin Rouge, now playing at the Kentucky Center with Nathan on the stage because you can't catch up to I got a job for a Kentucky kid like Nathan.

Every day on stage is a dream come true, but performing on this Kentucky stage is truly special.

It's really cool to come back to the place where the people fostered, like, believed in you and were like, you can do this.

And to come now to share that with other people, it's it's really cool cause I know there is going to be somebody in the audience watching who wants to be on a Broadway show, wants to do TV, dance, anything right, want to be nice, and we'll get em from Kentucky and we'll get to see me.

And like, that can happen.

I can, I can do that.

Arts and culture in Kentucky Louisville, Lexington is like booming.

And most people don't really put Kentucky on the map.

But it's we have a really great arts and culture here.

And so it's really cool to be a product of that and to get to represent the state.

When he's not performing in the traveling Broadway show, Nathan finds time to make his way back to his hometown.

To get to go back, and especially like Scott Bo, where I, you know, teach the fourth graders and I can say like I was if I walk these halls, these same halls that you all walk every day, I walk them and you can do it.

You know, hard work, determination really pays off.

Like I said, people believed in me.

And so to pay that forward, that is the biggest gift I can give.

For Kentucky Edition, I'm Kelsey Starks.

Thank you Kelsey.

Moulin Rouge is at the Kentucky Center through March 2nd.

The new season of PNC Broadway in Louisville was just announced yesterday, and it includes MJ, the Michael Jackson Musical, A Return of Hamilton and Book of Mormon, and last year's Tony winner, The Outsiders.
