  • Thanks A Million🎭

    I have audition for Rose and her calm and inviting demeanor was so welcoming, that I settled into the comfort and delivered. However, having had a “seat at the Table” during Casting Confidential sessions has been priceless. I always pick up golden nuggets to add to my toolbox. I am ever so grateful for each opportunity to learn and to grow. Carol B. #thankful #grateful #actor #performer
