Colleen Rush is a casting director who works via her own company, as well as in collaboration with Larissa Mair Casting & Associates. She—in addition to being smart, kind, and hard working—is one of the most exciting voices in casting today. Colleen’s deeply invested in actors and is fascinated by the symbiotic nature of the relationship between casting and performer. In this episode, as we set about demystifying the casting process for our listeners, Colleen shows just how much she cares about actors, respects their processes, and how she is constantly rooting for them. Straight up, I learned a lot from speaking with her, things that will make me both a better actor and coach, and I can’t wait for you to take the deep dive with us. A thousand thank you’s to Colleen for being the first casting director we’ve had on the show! What an honor!
