Join me for a heartwarming exploration as my youngest, Jacqui Dwyer, pulls back the curtain on her vibrant journey in musical theatre. Experiencing an international childhood, Jacqui's anecdotes paint a picture of a life rich with creativity and the pursuit of purpose through the joy of the stage.
The seas of the performing arts are ever turbulent, with success post-university an unpredictable voyage. Jackie and I dissect the casting process intricacies, where the right fit can eclipse the highest skill, and share a candid look at the often hidden battles with imposter syndrome. We celebrate the thrill of mastering complex roles, exemplified by the task of being a swing in a show as spirited as Come From Away, and bask in the adrenaline that courses through a performer's veins.
We close our conversation on a high note, sharing the inspiring story of Ellery Ward, whose acoustic renditions of Stephen Sondheim classics have carved a distinctive path in musical theatre. Between the laughter and the candor on mentors' impact, life's juggling act, and the pursuit of authenticity, we find solace in the art of mindfulness. With personal rituals and a dash of 'rocket fuel' passion, we're reminded of the profound satisfaction found in a life attuned to the arts. My deepest gratitude to Jackie for this enlightening exchange, and to our listeners, an invitation to thread kindness into your lives.
