For this final episode of this pilot season, Myles and Stefanie have a remarkable conversation with accomplished actor, writer, director and educator Alex Bulmer. The conversation is particularly focussed on two topics: in the first half we hear and discuss the game-changing secret (listen to the episode and it won't be a secret!) that enabled Alex to build the successful and wide-ranging career in the UK, a dynamic conversation about training opportunities, for actors with disabilities: both obstacles and possibilities for students and instructors alike.
Learn more about Alex and her work at her website: https://www.alexbulmer.co.uk/
And this is an article she wrote that we particularly like:
