[musings] The beauty of an ensemble cast is the culmination of their strengths orchestrated with precision and timing. On Broadway, the grid iron, or a college campus, each team member understands the importance of their role, but more importantly, they understand how their talents and acumen add heft to that position. Dr. Elizabeth Garrett use to say, “Relentless preparation is the key to success.” A team is best when it works as a system and not a machine. Understand the value of each position you hold through your career. It matters. Be well. #leadershipcoaching #playyourposition

Have you ever encountered someone so committed to their life's purpose that they turn down opportunities to try new things? While it's important to make choices that align with our values, it's equally important to have a sense of adventure and experiment with new experiences. Sometimes we worry too much about what others will think of us if we step out of our comfort zone. However, we are all just actors playing different roles in the grand theatre of life, and when the curtains fall, our time here will be over. So, let's make the most of our limited time and embrace new experiences. 😊🧿 #corporatetheatre #roadies #managementdevelopment #stageshow #opportunities #experiences

Actors are the ultimate sales people!!! I was recently asked, “What’s one thing people that aren’t perfomers would be surprised to know about them?” My immediate answer: “Actors are the ultimate sales people” When an actor steps into an audition room (that maybe they’ve been waiting ~7 hours to enter) they have all of about 1 minute to prove to the creative team and casting directors that they are the right fit for the show/role. 1 minute that could possibly give them their next paycheck or some much needed extra income. Alot rides on that one minute, no interview, no application, just you. Someone who can remain calm and collected under that type of pressure? That’s someone I want on my team. Someone who is so passionate about something that they are willing to make the short term sacrifices for long term gain? That’s someone I want on my team. This is only scratching the surface of the immense amount of transferable skills a theatre degree has provided for me that I now bring to a corporate role. Let people study what they love and see how they will use it at your company. #studentvoices #theatre #youthleadership #artseducation

This past weekend, I wrapped up stage managing a local theatre production. While people think that community theatre is "just for fun," here's three ways I use stage managing skills in my work as a career consultant: -Stage managers are event planners. A theatre production is a full-scale event which requires the ability to keep organized all the elements to make a cohesive event. I plan events (large and small scale) where understanding the big picture and the impact on the audience is essential. -Stage managers are problem solvers. Even a step further, they have to predict what will go wrong before it can ever go wrong and prep ahead to avoid issues. While this can seem like a negative view, it actually helps to know alternatives when developing workshops or when to pivot. -Stage managers are detail-oriented. They need to know the who/what/when/where/why for every scene, every cue, every prop, etc. and then lay it all out so everyone is on the same page. This is why I can ask such specific questions in career consulting and get to the heart of my students' needs. Today, I want to give love to other community theatre stage managers, as well as those on cast and crew for the dedication and skills that they bring to other facets of their work and life. #stagemanagers #yinzercareercoach #wednesdaywisdom #theatre

Check out my latest blog interview for Central Florida Vocal Arts & Opera del Sol featuring the topic of taking lessons from performing arts experiences and applying them to other aspects of your life. Give it a read!

Challenging Perceptions: Inclusivity in the Performing Arts When you encounter someone who is visually impaired, what’s your initial reaction? Do you approach them with empathy or optimism? Do you see their potential, or do you fall into the trap of viewing them through the lens of limitation? Have you ever considered collaborating with visually impaired actors or theatre professionals in your artistic projects? Or do you, like many, operate within the framework of the medical model of disability, focusing on limitations rather than embracing the social model that highlights accessibility and inclusivity? Perhaps inclusivity and accessibility haven't been central to your practice yet. Now is the time to reflect on these questions and explore how disabled talents, especially artists living with sight loss, can enrich the performing arts and beyond. For a deeper dive into this important conversation, I invite you to listen to the recent episode of BBC Radio 4’s In Touch (October 8). I had the honour of being featured alongside Amy Leach, Deputy Artistic Director of Leeds Playhouse, and the incredible talents from Extant, a visually impaired-led theatre company. We discussed the TPT’s Get Set Progress Internship at Leeds Playhouse, and Unseen, a powerful new production that showcases the creativity and resilience of disabled artists.
