Soon to be a Pod Cast: where we interview artists one on one to hear how they got to where they are.
Bullpen Sessions were a monthly meeting where theater professionals are invited to talk about their experience on a specific topic of interest for pre-professional and emerging artists in an intimate setting. Attendees are encouraged to ask questions, engage in open discussion, and share their experience on the topic. Bullpen Sessions will address basic questions about the industry, share best practices, and build community. Launching March 28th - also Opening Day of Baseball Season. Play Ball!
