Luisa Tascone: Australian Actor & Singer | Episode 087

Actorcast

For episode 087 of Actorcast we are joined by my friend, actor and singer, Luisa Tascone! Luisa is such a wonderful person. I had the opportunity to meet her through my time at the Neighborhood Playhouse and was excited to have her on the show to share her story of training and working in the industry. We talk about what inspired her to pursue this career, why she enjoyed her training at the Neighborhood Playhouse so much, as well as her experience working in the United States as an Australian.

To keep up with all of Luisa's work, be sure to follow her @luisatascone and visit her website at www.luisatascone.com.
