BAN Beyond Facebook RAW ep.06 with Guest: John Byrne

This is the first series of The British Actors Network RAW podcasts. This is episode 5. BAN’s Champion in Chief, Helen Raw has invited 3 more guests to ask the questions they think might just persuade you to become a foundering member….  Helens 5th guest is Sally Hyde Lomax - Theatre, Screen & Voice Actor @sallylomax  SHOW NOTES Sally's questions  The BAN model: Do you see The British Actors Network working alongside existing casting sites such as Spotlight, or as an exclusive one-stop-shop for actors. Spotlight has been around for over a hundred years and there is an element of achievement as an actor in getting your professional training or getting your three recognised credits to qualify there, and most agents expect Spotlight as a requirement for your representation. How does BAN see itself vis a vis Spotlight? Glass Ceilings: As an older jobbing actor I have for years been trying to break through that glass ceiling. Two years ago went back to drama school and did a full-time MA in acting, so effectively I could re-start by being a recent graduate, and I think it has helped. But for instance, I’d actually love to be considered to be a new older nun on Call the Midwife, but it seems that only “known” older actors are used for those parts. Do you think that BAN will be useful to us older jobbing actors trying to break through that glass ceiling? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/britishactorsnetwork/message
