Today we are joined by Katherine J Espin, a fellow classmate of mine from my time at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Join us as we discuss the complications around DACA in the industry navigating an industry as a filmmaker in a field dominated by men, and the pursuit of writing forgotten stories of historical figures.

Join us for the 6th episode of Will Act for Change where we are joined by the immensely talented Caisey Cole. We discuss the relevance of social issues in theatre today, why we are continually fascinated and inspired by classic authors and storytellers, and of course- where advocacy fits into the realm of performing arts.

Today I am joined by Good Trouble's Maisie Klompus. Listen in as we discuss TV's role in advocacy, how comedy and drama differ in their relationship to discussing current events, and how we use stories to work towards a better future.

Melanie MacQueen has had an impressive career in theatre and film spanning decades. Join us as she shares with us how things have changed and progressed in the industry. Melanie shares her experience and view on why a voice is needed and the challenges that theatre and film face in the current sociopolitical climate.

In today's episode, we speak to award-winning playwright, Mikaela Duffy!

Mikaela strives to show hope in the face of darkness, something we all need to hold onto these days. Join us as we discuss her award-winning plays For Love, Sir and Starsweeper!

Join me for a discussion with satirical playwright and novelist Bill Fitzhugh as we discuss his current in-development musical - The Altruist. The Altruist tackles themes of organ donations, body autonomy, physician assisted suicide and medical ethics when a terminally ill patient decides to become the ultimate altruist by choosing to die on his own terms by way of donating all of his vital organs. As morbid as it sounds, Bill finds a way to inject humor and heart (pun intended) into this darkly amusing story. Where does comedy land when tackling such a heavy subject and how can it be used to ask questions and bring awareness?

In the inaugural episode of the brand new podcast Will Act for Change, I discuss the tentative deal following the SAG strike with actor Miles Berman and how that has impacted his relationship with activism and acting.
