49. Everything's Coming Up Erin Dilly! Parenting & Performing

02/05/24 • 53 min

“That aspiration? Hell yes. Allow yourself to want all of it. Wake up every morning, take a deep breath, meditate, and see where you are that day, and where that day takes you. Then allow yourself to pursue it. As opposed to failing because not every single piece is in place yet."

Erin Dilly is a wife, mother, Broadway actor (with a Tony nomination!), TV/film actor, fierce friend, and dedicated teacher—she seemingly does have it all! And yet, there is always more to the story than the shiny parts we see on social media. On this podcast episode we talk all about the highs and lows of juggling intense ambition alongside the desire for relationships and a family. Erin has an openheartedness and honesty that will make you feel like you are wrapped in a warm blanket. For anyone who "wants it all", this conversation is for you!

50. How to Craft a "Moment Before"

In this solo episode, Cynthia dives into a topic familiar to actors but often overlooked: the "moment before". Despite its importance, Cynthia finds that many actors need constant reminders about this crucial aspect of performance. One of the main jobs of actors is to create a believable and compelling story and to clearly communicate that story. Musical theatre is defined by the storytelling! If you don't have a crystal clear moment before, your song is going to feel disconnected, unmotivated, or that it's just not necessary for you to sing right now. A really specific, powerful “moment before” will seriously transform your self-tapes and your in-person auditions! Cynthia provides practical tips and exercises to help actors understand and embody the "moment before".
