Episode Description from the Publisher

In this open and restorative episode, Alexa is joined by award-winning screen director Matt and acclaimed acting teacher and coach Steph Upsall for a conversation designed to support, re-ground and re-energise actors navigating an increasingly challenging industry. Together, they explore what actors should be focussing on beyond industry noise, career pressure and unhelpful expectations. Matt offers a behind-the-scenes perspective on performance through a director's lens, while Steph reflects on why her approach has a profound impact on both actors and the work itself. Tune in to hear three people who deeply care about actors share what they discovered while leading a collaborative training retreat and why the essence of that experience, rooted in play, safety and process, is something actors everywhere can benefit from and take into their own careers.
