In the eighth episode in the “Conversations From Away” series, Aaron welcomes two very special guests from the Come From Away North American Tour family to talk about microagressions and other problematic phenomena in the rehearsal process and throughout a show’s run. Jane Bunting (Dance Captain, Standby) and Shawn Pennington (Production Stage Manager) are here to discuss past experiences as well as brainstorm ways in which we can create safer spaces going forward.
