    Don’t Think, Act!

    Don’t Think, Act!

    by

    Since Aug 21, 2023 23:41 UTC

    Don’t Think, Act! is a new podcast for actors by actors where they can have free exposure talking about their craft, inspirations and acting goals! Let’s get the business to know you better.

    Inspired by Inside The Actor’s Studio & Actors on Actors I’m keen to create a resource for performers of all levels, to learn from actors of all levels.

    The business changes all the time and I think it would be great to have peers talking about their feelings; methods; offer inspiration on coping in a competitive field, and how they prepare for their craft.

    I’m fascinated as to why we do what we do, and how we can help each other on our journeys.

    I also love a cringe worthy audition story!

    If you’re an actor, and love talking creativity, I’d be honoured to have you take part:

    Contact dontthinkactpodcast @gmail.com with a little about you and your acting profiles/links.

    Finn, Again, The Later Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

    Finn, Again, The Later Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

    Since Nov 6, 2009 00:32 UTC

    Still a rascal and a wanderer, Huck Finn, now nearing thirty, narrowly escapes a shotgun wedding, outwits a crafty Treasury Agent bent on connecting him with the killing of President Lincoln, meets up with Tom Sawyer and his old river pal Jim, executes a clever con in saloons across Nebraska, and explores the American Frontier with a traveling band of Shakespearean actors. Along the way our free-spirited hero falls head-over-heels for an English heiress, gets involved in a series of brawls, survives a gun battle, has a run-in with a poisonous snake, builds a raft, almost drowns, survives a San Francisco earthquake, and is forced to disguise himself as a woman. All this in an effort to catch a boat to Australia to prospect for opals “as big as your thumb.”

    Free Shakespeare on the Radio: Richard II

    Free Shakespeare on the Radio: Richard II

    by

    Since Jul 8, 2020 16:00 UTC

    FROM OPEN AIR TO ON THE AIR! Join WNYC and The Public Theater as we bring Free Shakespeare in the Park to the airwaves with William Shakespeare’s RICHARD II. Brought to you in a serialized radio broadcast over four nights, listen as the last of the divinely anointed monarchs descends and loses it all. When King Richard banishes his cousin Henry Bolingbroke and deprives him of his inheritance, he unwittingly creates an enemy who will ultimately force him from the throne. One of the Bard’s only dramas entirely in verse, this epic and intimate play presents the rise of the house of Lancaster through a riveting tale of lost sovereignty, political intrigue, and psychological complexity. Directed by Saheem Ali, experience this beautiful and cutting play in an exciting serialized radio format from wherever you are. “A fractured society. A man wrongfully murdered. The palpable threat of violence and revenge against a broken system. Revolution and regime change. This was Shakespeare’s backdrop for Richard II. I’m exceptionally proud of this production, recorded for public radio with a predominantly BIPOC ensemble, led by the extraordinary André Holland,” said director Saheem Ali. “It’s my hope that listening to Shakespeare’s words, broadcast in the midst of a pandemic and an uprising, will have powerful resonance in our world.” In support of the fight against racism and inequality and in recognition of the unspeakable violence against Black communities, The Public Theater and the artists of RICHARD II dedicate this production to the Black Lives Matter Movement.
