“I was so excited to bring our Livestream series to our members and to actors all over the world. Now more than ever, we need to help actors who are feeling the strain of the global quarantine and every one of our interviews is a learning opportunity that’s going to help them build their careers and develop their craft. My message to any actor is spend just 60 minutes watching our Livestream and you will be hooked. The conversation is that valuable and that important.”
