I Wish I Knew: Being a Sound Engineer and I.A.T.S.E. Leader with Amanda Sager

I Wish I knew is back this month, brought to you from my couch and social distancing! I’m here to inspire you with the incredible Amanda Sager (she/her/hers), a sound engineer and the President of I.A.T.S.E. Local 154. If you are interested in technical theater, this one is for you! Amanda talks about how she got into sound, the difference between a sound designer and a sound engineer, what it’s like being female-identified in a male dominated field, and when is it right to join the union. Amanda is so inspiring, please read and share her story!

Joining Actor’s Equity: When Is the Right Time?

Every actor’s (or stage manager’s) journey is unique and joining the Actors’ Equity Association (AEA) is a personal decision that only you can make. I suppose it’s appropriate that I weigh in on this topic as it’s a decision I am in the middle of making myself. My life and career have presented an opportunity which begs the question, are you ready? Your path will be different, or perhaps similar! In either case, here I am, an actor teetering on the edge of Equity. What about you?
