RECORDED: 6/2/2020TheatreFirst is a theatre company and social justice organization that has fought for equitable representation in all aspects of theatre production and performance, as well as hourly wages for actors and payment for attending callbacks. Joel and Erin talk with TheatreFirst's casting director Stephanie Prentice about these "wacky" notions. Other topics include: what a casting director should expect from actors (and vice-versa); what will happen if theatre companies don't adjust their current behavior and practices; the challenges and rewards of new works; why actors deserve money; what "www" stands for; and the feeling of seeing yourself represented. Plus: Joel tries out a new catchphrase. And fails. Support the show (http://www.otherothertheatre.com/support)
