Ep 25: Disabled Actors


Listen Later

Today’s episode features a conversation with two disabled actors working in New York City: Shannon Devido (@shannondevido) and Ryan Haddad (@RyanJHaddad). Both are triple threats-- actors, writers, and performers. You’ll hear them talk about why they love acting and how they broke into the entertainment industry. We also discuss disability representation in media and why actually disabled actors should play disabled characters. Disability Visibility is a production of the Disability Visibility Project, an online community dedicated to recording, amplifying, and sharing disability media and culture.
