Creativity Will Find a Way with Dan AmboyerActor Dan Amboyer joins us today to talk about being a parent to a toddler (creativity in action!), getting back into work after the pandemic shut down, and the challenges and discoveries during his first time directing. We also talk about how putting boundaries around creative projects can increase the creative problem solving, and support self-care as well. Join us as we discuss:- Dan's background and current projects [00:58]- What it was like directing his first theatre production, Whirlwind [4:37]- A story about scenic challenges with Whirlwind , and what Dan discovered as an artist [6:17]- How adding boundaries to creative projects, especially time constraints, increases creativity and problem solving and helps support self-care [13:07]- Ways to reach Dan and a more about his current work on the Netflix series Uncoupled [16:22]Guest Bio: Dan was raised just outside Detroit, Michigan. He grew up loving all things animals, art and nature. He spent his high school years attending arts boarding school Interlochen Arts Academy in the majestic woods of Northern Michigan, and then headed to steely Pittsburgh to attend Carnegie Mellon University's renown School of Drama. Dan graduated with honors and dual degrees in Acting & Music Theatre.Dan has performed with esteemed theatre companies both in NYC and around the US, including The Old Globe, The Shakespeare Theater, Utah Shakespeare Festival and many Off-Broadway companies. His film & TV experiences have afforded him the opportunity to experience adventures around the world.Fun career highlights include performing Shakespeare's The Tempest opposite Christopher Walken as his scene partner, living a royal fantasy as HRH Prince William while filming William & Catherine in an actual European palace, and as a young actor, surviving several memorable evenings whilst thrown onstage last minute to perform as an understudy without a lick of rehearsal—and he'll tell you the tales, if you bring the whiskey.Dan just recently made his directorial debut with the new play Whirlwind at The Wild Project, which The New Yorker's Elisabeth Vincentelli called a “quick witted” and “delightful 80 minutes.” He is currently developing several projects as both a writer and director.He resides in Brooklyn, NY along with his menagerie of animals, plants, loving spouse and newborn son, Theodore.Connect with Dan:Website: https://www.danamboyer.com/Linktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/danamboyerInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/danamboyer/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/damboyerTwitter: https://twitter.com/danamboyerConnect with Story and HorseFacebook: @storyandhorseInstagram: @storyandhorse Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/storyandhorse)
