Why I‘ll Never Make It

Corrie Legge Shares How Choices Have Shaped Her Acting Career


Listen Later

Previous guest Michael Kushner loves to use the term multi-hyphenate to illustrate the many ways we can express our creative selves. Well, Corrie Legge describes herself as a multi-passionate actor, having performed in television, film, theater, commercials, video games, audiobooks, and more. She's also a filmmaker and a coach, helping others to build thriving creative careers without having to sacrifice a fulfilling personal life in the process.

Corrie and I spoke earlier this year about a particular struggle she faced that actually led her into work as a voiceover artist, which she now balances with her other role of being a mother. But we start off talking about back-to-back experiences that made her question even pursuing a career in theater altogether. 

  • STORY #1 - Back-to-back negative experiences in theater & not taking those experiences personally
  • EXTRAS - Letting go of fear in performance and auditions
  • STORY #2 - How an adopted dog led her into voiceover work
  • STORY #3 - Balancing motherhood and a career as an artist & how parenthood has made her a better actor
