What if your passion could transform you from a hesitant newcomer to a shining star? Join us on this exciting premiere episode of "Steps to the Stage-Drama Department," where we spotlight the incredible journey of Giorgio Haddad, a 17-year-old actor who embarked on his theatrical path thanks to his mother's encouragement. Giorgio opens up about his initial doubts about becoming a "theater kid" and shares the thrilling experience of his first audition that led to his debut role in "The Plot, Like Gravy, Thickens." Through his story, we celebrate the vibrant drama departments in local schools and the importance of nurturing young talent.
Ever wondered how community theater differs from high school productions? Giorgio gives us an insider’s look into both worlds. After wrapping up his junior year, Giorgio took a leap into the community theater scene, landing multiple roles in "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief: The Musical." He reveals the supportive, family-like atmosphere at the 7th Street Theater, contrasting it with the sometimes more stressful environment of high school theater. Giorgio’s experiences highlight the unique dynamics and the sense of belonging that community theater can offer, even under pressure.
But that’s not all—proper theater etiquette and professionalism are crucial for aspiring actors. Giorgio and I discuss the journey of learning these principles, from high school drama departments to community theater and beyond. We touch on the impact of popular productions like Hamilton and Wicked in bringing theater to the mainstream, and how this podcast aims to spotlight the remarkable work of drama departments in the Inland Empire. Giorgio’s journey from high school plays to community productions, coupled with his ambitions in film, serves as a testament to the continuous growth and learning in the world of acting. Tune in to hear more about Giorgio’s inspiring story and the thriving theater communities that foster young talent.
