This week, we talk with the incredibly grounded and talented Cady Mariano. Cady provides invaluable insight into what it truly takes to stay resilient, hopeful, and energized as an actor in an unpredictable industry.

We unpack the power of rehearsals, how actors contribute to a collective creative vision, and the  different directing styles that shape the on-set experience. This conversation is both eye-opening and encouraging, touching on how to keep your mental health in check, bring playfulness to your performance, and approach feedback with grace and grit. Cady is a frequent collaborator of multiple 50/50 alumni, and we're so excited to welcome her to the fam!
