EP #21 | The Actor's Showcase, Does It Help or Hinder?

Creative Risk

May 17 2024 • 2 hrs 5 mins

It’s showcase tiiiiiiime! Yay? The question the boys ask in this episode is “do senior actor showcases really prepare graduates for the business or inadvertently work against them”? There are guests galore, including members of the 2024 UNCSA class and fellow alum, Robyne Parrish (’98) all sharing their experiences, opinions, wins and disappointments. Any post-grad working artist understands the full list of demands put on them as they build sustainable careers and while most programs make clear that there will be challenges, rarely do they subsequently equip them with the tools to brave the inevitable choppy waters ahead. Instead, the journey of most programs culminates in the senior showcase that will either propel the burgeoning actor or leave them empty handed, dazed and confused. Tune in to not only hear all considered sides but also walk away with some tangible tools as to how you could make the most of a showcase.
