Watching a Broadway musical can be an overwhelming experience \u2014 to say nothing of the actors performing in it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you die onstage, or your character\u2019s screamed at, your body believes that\u2019s really happening to you every night,\u201d said Hannah Cruz, who made her Broadway debut this spring in the women\u2019s suffrage musical \u201cSuffs<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

For decades, the industry fostered a \u201csuck it up\u201d culture of steely toughness. But one focus of this year\u2019s BroadwayCon<\/a>, which will draw thousands of theater lovers to the New York Hilton Midtown from Friday through Sunday, is to facilitate conversations about how performers deal with mental health, both on and offstage.<\/p>\n

The planned discussions and events address a variety of topics, including the challenges of staying sober while working in the business and increasing accessibility for autistic audiences. <\/span>Here are six events you\u2019ll want to catch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
