Inclusive STAGES: Building Healthy Arts Spaces Burnout Is Breaking Us — Here’s the Pivot Arts Leaders Need
What if the greatest threat to theater right now isn’t empty seats, but burnout in the arts?
In this solo episode, I open up about the strain so many artists and leaders are facing, and why creative leadership strategies and even AI might hold part of the answer. From admin overload to outdated business models, I share a vision for tools and systems that center care, equity, and sustainability.
This one’s candid, urgent, and full of hope.
Enjoy the episode, friends!
