Host Derrick Porter sits down with Craig Butler and Nathan K. Wright, members of the teleprompter support team for the Tabernacle Choir and Music & the Spoken Word. They pull back the curtain on what it takes to keep a live broadcast running smoothly — from cueing lyrics and scripts to working in lockstep with the production team each week. It's a behind-the-scenes role most people never see, but one that's essential to every broadcast.
For nearly a century, Music & the Spoken Word has broadcast messages of hope and inspiration alongside the beautiful music of the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square. The show offers uplifting messages each week, and will occasionally include the stories of those behind the scenes who contribute to the overall beauty of the whole.
