043 Benjamin Wheelwright on Broadway (Part 2): How to leverage school, agents & auditions.

Feeling lucky? Despite all the right training and preparation since childhood, Benjamin Wheelwright was in the wrong place at the right time (twice), but still persevered to get the Broadway gig.In this New York interview, Benjamin explains how perseverance is a quality that pays off for all creative people from actors to musicians and everyone in between. That’s because coincidence, circumstance and cooperation conspire in strange ways to make history as stakeholders seek the absolutely “right” person for each particular assignment from cast to crew.  It applies to stage and screen, the music industry, gaming, publishing … you name it! For every performance you view, hundreds and often thousands of individuals have had to survive a demanding series of escalating auditions, callbacks, and a variety of tests of endurance, patience and flexibility. As the number of rivals diminishes, the stakes grow ever higher. This is a young actor’s story, but it applies to you, whatever your discipline. It ends well, but the type of incredible steps along the way to his Broadway debut happen more often than you might think. All the training in the world did not prepare this 21 year old actor for the serendipity and rigorously-tiered levels of auditions prior to sharing the lead role of the Tony Award winning Broadway play: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Lucky? Of course, but …"Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." - Seneca, Roman philosopher www.curiousonbroadway.comSubscribe to the free Monetizing Your Creativity podcast:https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/monetizing-your-creativity/id1082894462?mt=2While you're there, please leave comments and suggestions for future episodes.
