In Euphoria season 3, episode 5, we primarily focus on Cassie, as she continues to ascend into the world of Only Fans, gaining traction, money and subscribers along the way. Maddy is right by her side, benefiting from her friend’s success, as she continues to collect a commission for managing her career. Rue’s criminal involvement has put her smack in the middle, between two battling drug lords and Nate… well, he’s in deep shit.

In episode 4, Sam Levinson draws our attention to the introduction of a new character: Kitty, the Silver Stripper’s newest dancer, who is brought in to replace Angel… and to do a lot more than what she bargained for. Her storyline is juxtaposed alongside Cassie’s, as both of these characters begin to navigate new settings, in an ambitious attempt to get ahead (even if it means at the expense of someone else’s control).

This episode largely centers around Cassie and Nate’s wedding and the stormy road that lies for them ahead (as they already begin to face marital problems). When the truth comes out surrounding Nate’s financial troubles, Cassie retaliates and all hell breaks loose (yes, at the wedding).

In season 3, episode 2 of Euphoria, Sam Levinson leans into the backstories of different characters, both new and returning. We get a better sense of why these characters landed where they are, how they find their way back to each other and what drives them to reconnect in the first place.

Season 3 of Euphoria, created by Sam Levinson, picks up with a cinematically stylized rearview mirror shot of Rue (Zendaya) in the desert, somewhere along the Mexican/ U.S border (Chihuahua, to be exact). We quickly learn that, while she’s not actively on drugs, she’s also she’s also not up to “anything good,” as she directly tells us in her iconic voiceovers. The series of events that unfold in season 3 take place about five years after the end of season 2, where a collection of new and returning characters are seen navigating the beginning stages of their young adult lives.

After pleading guilty and spending five years in prison for the vehicular accident that took her boyfriends life, Kenna Rowan finds herself back in Wyoming with one mission in mind: to meet the child she bore in prison, but never got a chance to raise.

An acting career, like anything else we decide to pursue in life is always worth it. With that said, it’s important to understand when its time to pull the plug and pivot in in another direction (IF we decide to do so). At the end of the day, as long as something makes YOU happy, it’ll always be worth it. It only stops being worth it when it’s no longer fulfilling your needs or your overall state of joy.

In a world full of stereotypes and premeditated assumptions, Pretty Lethal, challenges our thoughts and asks us to re-consider what we believe to know about ballet dancers…  and people as a whole.

On the surface, acting seems like a pretty simple task: you say some lines… and you go home. But beneath its simple façade, its glamourous stereotypes and its (oftentimes) misunderstood artform, acting requires a skill that simply put: not everyone has.

As auditioning actors, it’s important to understand the different types of acting roles that exist in the entertainment industry. For one, you want to familiarize yourself with the type of work you might be going out for, for the simple fact that each role will require a different skill set and the ability to adjust the way in which you perform it.

In the span of a long weekend, Josh stumbles upon unprecedented challenges surrounding the technological malfunctions of Iris… his companion robot.

At first sight, Josh and Iris seem like a normal couple. We are left to believe that they met under (somewhat) normal circumstances: at a grocery store, where they flirt (a little too much) by the produce section. Josh is so taken aback by Iris’s charm, that he’s left in a clumsy state as he stumbles to grab an orange from the fruit department, causing the whole crate of citrus to fall on the ground. How romantic. A true love story. Or is it?

A self-tape audition, like the name suggests, is a self-recorded video that an actor films on their own time. These virtual-style auditions took off during the pandemic, offering actors, casting directors and entertainment professionals an alternative, one that limited physical interactions during a time where social distancing was highly encouraged in order to lower our risks of contagion.

As actors, we are in constant competition with other actors. Let’s face it, for every casting notice you submit to, there was probably hundreds of other applications alongside yours. For every audition, there is likely thirty-some other actors who got called in to audition too. For every petite, brunette, youthful looking Latina role, there are other actresses in the room who will look EXACTLY like me.

 A Bachelor of Arts (BA) is a traditional four-year college program that culminates in a general arts degree, oftentimes maintaining a relatively broad arts curriculum. BA’s are a great option for students who enjoy a specific art form, but want to keep an open mind and take other classes relating to that generalized niche.

Resilience and the art of perseverance is instrumental in an industry where so much is out of our control. As actors, resilience teaches us to bounce back, despite the rejection we face on a daily basis. As an actor, this is fundamental. Without resilience, your acting career will inevitably fall short.

When we think of theater, we might not necessarily think about all of the intricacies and jobs that go on behind the scenes. This is OKAY. It’s part of the magic of theater. However, if you’re looking for work in the theatre industry, please know that it DOES exist… and it exists in abundance.  

On her 18^th birthday, Elliot decides to celebrate by getting high on mushrooms with her two best friends, Ro (Kerrice Brooks) and Ruthie (Maddie Ziegler). They camp out somewhere in the woods and ingest a concoction of herbal mushroom tea. Their hallucinogen trip takes an unexpected turn when Elliot encounters her future self: a 39-year-old jaded and outwardly cynical version of who she used to be.

On the surface, Connecticut might seem like a small state with not much to offer for creatives and artists alike but beneath its suburban towns and beautiful state parks, CT holds some other treasures, especially for young actors looking to further their craft!
