Description

We bring our lived experience into everything we do. ?

This conversation with Stephanie Lexis is super eye-opening to the inequalities that people with different body sizes have in our beloved industry. ?

She created the Broadway Body Positivity Project to start change, and she has been working with the people that will lead the future of our industry: young thespians from high schools and universities. Also, shout out to the amazing production of Beauty and the Beast from the Olney Theatre Center in Maryland, and the beautiful Sis (@ucancallmesis on IG) who recently played Ado Annie in the Oklahoma! National Tour, you are rocking it and are so inspiring to SO many! ??

TW: we chat about body image and eating disorders.

Backstage Talk, hosted by Colombian performing artist Martín Acuña, features the voices of those entertainment professionals who are backstage, not under the spotlight. We amplify those who create the shows we love: ensemble and company performers, producers, teachers, writers, stage managers, directors, and more, while also trying to bridge the gap between Colombia’s Musical Theatre Industry and Broadway. Made by someone who lives and breathes Musical Theatre, this podcast untangles what someone needs and what it takes to get to Broadway. Instagram: @backstagetalkpod
