There's No People Like Show People

Hello Friends…Again! Here's a little solo episode for you tonight, which was recorded in a bathroom after I took a bubble bath and had a glass of wine. Sensible. This is an episode that is filled with a lot of questions: How do you get through this messy life while being an artist? Where is the time and where is the money? How can you take more breaks so that you don't have so many breakdowns? How do you make it all work? There's No People Like Show People hasn't fallen off the face of the earth. We're still here. Just at a slower and healthier pace while taking more breaks. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support us. Look for more interviews coming in 2024! 

“Bringing the theatre community closer, one story at a time.”Tonight friends, we are celebrating our 3 Year Anniversary of There's No People Like Show People! Join Zach Smith and I for a walk down podcast memory lane. In this episode we talk about so much: graduating from college, teaching college, traveling on crazy road-trips, surviving summer theatre, embracing being in the messy middle of your life and learning to go with the flow. It's all about the journey not the destination, and we're here to take you along for the wild ride. One day at a time. One moment at a time. One story at a time. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast! 

Our guest today describes herself as a recovering singer, actor, mover…which I think is hilarious! Meet Melissa Rosenberg, the special events and development operations manager at Hubbard Street Dance in Chicago. In this episode we talk about reclaiming joy by taking back the thing you love most. She has her own one woman show coming up on Friday, September 8th at Davenport's Piano bar and cabaret called: “But You Can't Sing:” an Evening of Song. Be sure to get your tickets soon as it's almost sold out! Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast. 

“Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.” Who doesn't love a good Winston Churchill quote?Welcome back friends. The versatile and inspiring Clint Hromsco is here with us this evening and we so much to talk about! He's traveled the country as an actor, director, choreographer and puppeteer and has a lot of insight to share about what it means to be an artist, finding work/life balance, continuing to put yourself out there and not being afraid to fail. He also shares his process of creating environments where people feel comfortable to be open and vulnerable. It's all about effective communication. One of my favorite things that Clint says is this: “Enjoy the ride and focus on doing good work.” Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

We're calling this episode Christmas in July because our guest today is extra festive!

“When I think of home I think of a place where there's love overflowing.” Recently I've been listening to The Wiz and really thinking about the concept of home. And sometimes as artists when everywhere is home, no where is home and vice versa, when no where is home, everywhere is home. But at the end of the day I've always considered home to be less of a physical place and more about the community of people. The theatre community will always be home. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

Last week on the podcast I spoke about my college days and this week I'm honored to share with you a conversation with a dear old friend. Michael Crea was there when I was transitioning from college and going out into the world. Between navigating NYC and auditions, he always believed in me. In this episode we talk about growing up, choosing new life paths and moving on. I really admire his perspective. He says: “Theatre can be a part of my life. It doesn't have to be my entire life.” Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

“Anyone who decides to pursue a degree in an artistic field is very very brave.” Today friends we are really bringing you back to A TIME! Facebook had just been invented, I had a brand new flip phone and my headshots were in black and white. Ah, my years spent at University. I am so proud to have graduated with my BFA in Musical Theatre from Shenandoah Conservatory. In this solo episode, I reflect upon the beginnings of my professional career. Remember friends, it doesn't matter where you go to school, what matters most is what you make of it. And if you're not getting the opportunities that you want, start creating your own!

Awhile ago I had an idea to record an episode called: Struggling. And it was just going to be a solo episode talking about all the things that I'm currently struggling with. I chatted about this idea with one of my best friends and he said that he'd love to come back on the podcast, talk about all of the things that he's currently struggling with and we should change the title to: STRUGGLE BUS. Previously featured on Episode 22 & Episode 100, Michael Enright is here today and we are laying it all out on the table. It's very easy to hide behind social media and pretend that your life is perfect under the guise of an Instagram filter. In this episode, we don't. We talk about struggles with depression, anxiety, money, relationships, eating disorders, time management, burnout, jealousy, loneliness, self-care, parenting…the list goes on and on and on. At the end of the day, life is hard. Being an artist is hard. Trying to figure out what's next is hard. And you shouldn't have to go through it alone. If you or someone you know is currently struggling right now, please know that you are never alone and we are riding that struggle bus with you. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

It's scary to open up your heart to new love and trust again but I can honestly say that meeting Shane is one of the best things that's happened in a very long time. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast! 

“Everything I promised them is here. All of us the way we used to be. We will always have each other. They will always be the fire in my heart.” Recently I've been revisiting one of my absolute favorite musicals of all time: Little Women. Sometimes I think everyone gets so caught up in the song Astonishing that we forget about the brilliance behind The Fire Within Me. It's always been my favorite song from the show because it speaks so deeply to what is really important in life…family, community and love. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter where you've worked or what shows are on your resume. The most important thing is how well have you loved and how well have you served your community. All that matters is that we've got each other. Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

What makes a great director? Vision? Hard work? Creativity? Perhaps. But I 100% agree with our guest today when she says it all comes down to one word: Listening. As a director, choreographer, performer and a teaching artist, Danae DeShazer is such an inspiration! It's so nice to sit down and have a very honest conversation with a fellow female director.

“The greatest gift of all is the gift of time.” Jordan Arrasmith and I recorded this episode during rehearsals for Into the Woods and I am so grateful for the time that we shared together.

We leave you with these poignant Sondheim lyrics: “And you think of all of the things you've seen and you wish that you could live in-between. And you're back again only different than before. After the sky.” Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!

Everybody's on a journey. And today, I am so honored to share with you this very open and honest conversation. The multi-talented Jeremy Phillips is currently the Director of Production at the South Bend Civic Theatre. We both ask a lot of questions in this episode. What is the purpose of theatre? What stories are we hoping to tell? Are we educating or are we entertaining? Jeremy says: "We need to stop trying to pass off these trauma stories as entertainment. Are you trying to educate white people or are you trying to get more people of color in the audience? If we could focus more on JOY and stop creating more traumatic experiences in theatre and celebrate new works and stop trying to just insert people of color into traditionally white roles and calling that progress...we'd really be doing something great in American theatre." Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast.

As the old saying goes: "The greater the risk, the greater the reward." Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support us!

"This is my quest: to follow that star. No matter how hopeless. No matter how far." Recently I've been listening to The Impossible Dream from Man of La Mancha. Every time I feel exhausted or weary or like I just want to give up, this song always inspires me to try again. It's like the old proverb says: Fall off the horse 7 times, get up 8. But in reality it's more like: Fall off the horse 797 times, get up 798. Wherever you are in the world today, I hope these lyrics inspire you to keep fighting for your wildest dreams. "To try when your arms are too weary. Too reach the unreachable star." Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!
