What does a Casting Director do? with Bernie Telsey

We loved listening to Bernie Telsey talk about the role of a Casting Director this season.

We also discussed:
🎙️His first job as a casting assistant and building his rolodex of actors
🎙️Casting RENT as an off-broadway musical and why it was a difficult year long process
🎙️Putting an ad in the Village Voice for a rock musician for RENT
🎙️That ideally, he would like to be part of the early development process of a project
🎙️Giving Casting their credit and how that has evolved and how he hopes Tonys will offer a category to acknowledge casting
🎙️How is the office doing post-pandemic
🎙️What he sees in actors who shine with 4 lines or for a lead role, like in the case of Analeigh Ashford
🎙️How actors can get on their radar and what projects Telsey is working on now
