Theater Talk: Top Casting Directors Explain It All

Описание: We are joined by Broadway casting directors James Calleri, Tara Rubin and Bernie Telsey, who discuss their important profession as gatekeepers for actors to get parts in theater, television and films. They talk about working with directors and performers to populate the worlds of the varied productions that they represent, and share uplifting casting success stories. They also offer encouragement for aspiring performers, and reveal the number one secret to eventually becoming a working actor.

Theater Talk is a series devoted to the world of the stage. It began on New York television in 1993 and is co-hosted by Michael Riedel (Broadway columnist for the New York Post) and series producer Susan Haskins.

The program is one of the few independent productions on PBS and now airs weekly on Thirteen/WNET in New York and WGBH in Boston. Now, CUNY TV offers New York City viewers additional opportunities to catch each week's show. (Of course, Theater Talk is no stranger to CUNY TV, since the show is taped here each week before its first airing on Thirteen/WNET.)

The series is produced by Theater Talk Productions, a not-for-profit corporation and is funded by contributions from private foundations and individuals, as well as The New York State Council on the Arts.
