Living a Life Without Permission with Brian Wallace
Join stage actor and film producer Brian Wallace as we talk about green-lighting yourself as an empowering, creative action that is part of living a life without permission. We discuss comedy, laughter as a disruptive act and the challenge of manufacturing inspiration. Brian shares a fun story about (mostly) surviving a musical theatre dance callback, and he offers a powerful suggestion for getting into the creative flow that was inspired by his "playing guitar badly." Also, Brian generously offers to read scripts, so, if you are a writer who is looking for potential collaborators, drop him a note!

Guest Bio:
Brian Wallace began his career as a stage actor in NYC and moved to Los Angeles in 2015. Once shortlisted for a Juilliard Playwriting Fellowship; produced the "play without a play" Kinsherf's Coat (Hollywood Fringe Producer's Award); wrote the pilots for "M.A.R.S." (Finalist- Inroads Screenwriting Fellowship & Oaxaca Film Fest) and "#TiredOfWinning" (Finalist- Seoul International Film Festival).Â
"Stay Green" was the first in the "mundane documentary" series that Wallace wrote and directed for Fancy Movies, and the film was selected at ten festivals worldwide, winning best in its category at Los Angeles CineFest and the Ealing Film Festival in London, UK. The prize money from Ealing financed the next mundane documentary installment, "Play On."
Wallace played a small but pivotal role in the pioneering transgender film "Relish," which won Best Feature at the Madrid and Burbank International Film Festivals in 2019, and he can currently be seen as the steady but depraved Dr. Richter in Denim Richards' latest film, "The Zoo." His play ‘The Martians’ has been accepted into the Valdez Theatre Conference this June.
