S2E6 - Telling authentic stories in theatre (Amy Andrews and Hayley Goldenberg)

  • Summary

  • Theatre writers, Women and Theatre Cofounders, intersectional feminists.

    To say that gender, race, and identity are touchy subjects in today’s world is a vast understatement - so much so that many of us just avoid them altogether. How can we put our work into the world if it’s not really representative of us or of others, or if we’re afraid to talk about it?

    That’s why it was such a breath of fresh air to do this episode with Hayley Goldenberg and Amy Andrews, the cofounders of Women and Theatre, writers and creators in theatrical spaces, explorers and champions of intersectional feminism, and two very good role models for having a constructive conversation. I asked them both some tough questions that many of us are wondering about, like how to authentically write, cast, and portray characters like ourselves and like those of marginalized groups in the theatre industry.

    This was a hugely important conversation for anyone in the theatre world, but particularly those in community theatre. Buckle up, because you might just learn something.
