In this episode, Darion and Alana get personal about what it means to be the only one in your family pursuing a career in theater. From parents’ first reactions to the reality of navigating family gatherings where theater isn’t always understood, they share honest stories about support, confusion, and everything in between. Together, they reflect on how family members show up (or don’t) in theater spaces, and the balance of honoring your craft while still belonging to a family that lives outside the arts.
