In the latest iampro podcast episode, Charlie chats to fellow 'Ocean at the End of the Lane' co-star Millie Hikasa.  Millie stared alongside Charlie for the year long touring production, and over that time have become very close; one of the great things about these long term projects being the friends you make.

Millie and Charlie share about the hustle to stay sharp between acting jobs, and the unexpected perks found in "muggle jobs" that can keep both the body and the actor's instrument finely tuned.  They dive deep into how drama school during a pandemic shaped Millie's craft, and instilled a confidence that goes beyond the stage. The episode is peppered with anecdotes on how overheard dialogues can spring into full-blown narratives, and why a notepad is an artist's trusty sidekick. They peer into the shadowy doubts that can haunt even the most experienced performers and reveal how to navigate the path to self-belief, and the importance of celebrating hard-earned accomplishments.

They discuss how resilience, more than talent, can be a true north in navigating the choppy waters of the acting industry, where rejection is as common as curtain calls.   This is a lovely episode that showcases the reality of working in theater and all the highs and lows that come with that.
