Ian Benjamin

<p>Friends, we are not meant to carry the heavy burdens of life alone. Which is why I'm so glad to be chatting with an old friend today. Ian Benjamin is a very talented pianist, music director, performer and most recently a Cruise Director! In this episode we talk a lot about the importance of effective change within this business. Ian puts it beautifully: "We think of ourselves in the theatre as artists who have an inclination towards empathy, understanding, openness and inclusiveness. And even in this community, who considers itself to be progressive and on the forefront of positive change...it's writhe with problems that fly in the face of those ideals that we hold for ourselves." Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast! </p>
