We believe that there's so much more to being a successful dancer, actor or performing artist than where you trained and how good your technique is. Tea and a Chat is a podcast designed to inspire the next generation of performers to break free of outdated beliefs and head into the industry knowing that who they are and what they offer the industry is important - and being authentically you its what is going to elevate you to that next level in your career.
