Description

✨ Episode 7: You can’t make a great show without a great cast but how do you actually find them when you don’t have a studio, a casting director, or endless budget? In this episode, Michael and Imeldha break down how they cast an entire ensemble from scratch: thousands of self-tapes, no gatekeepers, and a whole lot of belief.
