Minor Wisdom 2.0

This week, Chapter Director for Texas Thespians, Amy Jordan, is on the podcast. Although this alienates a lot of listeners outside of Texas, the reality is that the majority of Minor Wisdom's listeners are Texas based. 

Please consider purchasing a Minor Wisdom shirt to help support this podcast.

This week I had lunch with Chuck Harris (and his wife) at Royer's Round Top Cafe. Chuck has been there and done that from teaching elementary school all the way to high school. And, with his background in band, he brings a unique perspective to the world of theatre.

Please consider purchasing a shirt to support the adventurous interview setting. A teacher's salary can only make so many trips across the state for quality interviews. Thank you!!!

Matt Ludlam joined me via Skype this week. Check-out some of his swag at https://ludlamdramatics.com/ Make sure to stop by and see him at TETA, Thespians, and TTEC. This week's What Fine Arts Means to Me is from Mr. Erich Lane of Dear White People fame.

Help out Minor Wisdom by purchasing a shirt so that these interviews can take place face-to-face rather than via Skype or cell phone. The quality of the interviews doubles when there is a face-to-face connection with some of the amazing educators that have agreed to come on the pod.

This week I sat down with Steward Savage. (If you read these, you know that this is version 2.0 of the episode.) 

Mandy Conner spent some time on her way from Waco to Houston to give me an interview that focused on her own writing, craftiness, and some of her ways of managing all that she accomplishes. Please consider sending a 60 second clip of what fine arts education means to you.

H. Russ Brown is not just a huge fan of Captain America but he can also teach you how to fight Captain America and talk to him with funny voices! I had a great time getting to know H while endulging in some BBQ. Check him out at www.hrussbrown.com as well as his combat choreo company www.a2dtstagecombat.com.

Miranda Richter is a dance teacher, district facilitator, and department chair that has been teaching for over a decade. With a very theatrical upbringing and a good grasp on what makes a great production, I decided to veer off the path this week and get a bit of a perspective and history from another side of the fine arts.

Here is the second part to a conversation with a rather cool individual, Amy Wernig. If you did not listen to part 1, do so. There are a couple of references in part 2 that might not make sense.

I will get back to part 2 of Amy Wernig's interview, but I felt it was an appropriate time to post the interview from The Destyne Miller!  I was able to have a chat with her during our summer theatre camp, even though we were interrupted by one of her former students, Avery Ford. This is great interview with someone doing some amazing work with a newly successful theatre program.
