How did Broadway help Gabriella Pizzolo easily mingle with her Stranger Things co-stars?
Although Pizzolo joined the cast of Strangers Things in season 3, she quickly settled with her co-star with ease. During her interview with Cheatsheet, Pizzolo revealed that she had known most of her co-stars way before working with them in Stranger Things due to Broadway. When asked how it was joining the cast of the famous series who she knew beforehand, Pizzolo said, “I had met Caleb a few times. We would all meet up at this Broadway playground, that’s what we liked to call it. It was on Eighth Avenue, and we would all play there in between our shows on Broadway. I had met Caleb and Gaten there, and I’d seen Gaten in his first Broadway show ever. That was one of the first shows that I ever saw. And Sadie, I had known really, really well because her brother Mitchell was in Matilda with me. Matilda was my first show. So we were family friends.”
“It definitely helped, and it made me feel a lot more comfortable. And I think that being comfortable while you’re on set is one of the most important things that can happen. You know, talking through scenes, which even though Gaetan and I knew each other, we still went through everything that we were going to have to do. We worked on the song together, and he came to my trailer before and was like, ‘Are you sure this is okay? Do you want to try this?’ It was just a super comfortable experience because we’d all already known each other,” Pizzolo added on how her co-stars made her journey on the show more comfortable.
