On our last Art Unmasked of season one, we close out with a conversation with actor and Tik Tok star Gwynne Laurel Wood! She rose to popularity during the pandemic for her rendition of Penelope Featherington's song for Bridgerton: The Musical. We chat with her about the industry and the change we need to see to move forward now that Broadway is officially coming back.
We dive into what it takes to be a modern day actor in the business. From education and training, to special skills and body image. Is it ever too much to handle?
On this Art Unmasked we talk to New York City creatives Patrick and Aaron. After the city shut down, they found a way to stay creative, show off their city, and help those all over the world not feel so alone.

We talked about it so much last week we decided to just do an episode on it! We discuss Beetlejuice: The Musical. Its cast, its music, its set design, its plot line...*spoilers.* How do you make a movie turned musical work on stage? Beetlejuice is how.
In this episode, we discuss the popular trend in musical theatre of the movie turned musical, and of course, the musicals they bring to the big screen. Is the commercial popularity of well known stories and plot lines, eclipsing creativity? We discuss all this and more!
