Hey y’all! Welcome to the Theatre Artist Podcast | Diving Into the Craft and Business for Theatre Artists. 

Today’s conversation is with Niani Feelings who was a senior at Boston Conservatory when I was a freshman and is currently in the ensemble in the national tour of Mean Girls. Niani is currently at home in South Carolina, waiting to go back on tour, but before she was cast in Mean Girls, she was Oklahoma! And Love’s Labour’s Lost at Oregon Shakespeare Festival as well as assistant choreographing their production of Hairspray. Before that, she was the assistant choreographer for The Scottsboro Boys at SpeakEasy Stage Company in Boston.

I’m so happy that I could catch up with Niani and soak up all of her nuggets of wisdom, and discuss how to talk about representation, where and when we can voice our thoughts as actors in the room, and the musical theatre and non-musical theatre worlds. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did and I’ll check back in for a fact check and recap and reinforce later. But for now, here’s my conversation with Niani Feelings.
