Does anyone remember when Joy Dewing Casting would have me come to their Pop/Rock auditions, and teach everyone in the holding room how to communicate " "feel "to a piano player (as opposed to tempo), so you could come in and have a better audition? If you do, you'll know Joy and I have been "Auntie Allies" in the theatre community together since the dawn of time. We're here to break down what ally-ship is, what it means to the bigger picture, and the many thrilling ways to mobilize our friends in the Black community.
