BYOL Episode 57 - Rebecca Yarsin

BYOL GOES INSIDE THE AUDITION ROOM! 

This week Dave explores the world of casting with Rebecca Yarsin (Casting Director, House Productions)! 

Rebecca is one of the most popular and respected CDs in the business, and this interview shows why she's considered a true advocate for actors.  She tells Dave about getting started in theater in Fairfield, CT, going to high school with John Mayer, working alongside Justin Long, how she learned the craft of Stage Managing at SUNY Purchase, her transition to casting, how House Productions has remained stable in a volatile business, and how she helps guide actors through her coaching career.  Rebecca also takes Dave step-by-step through the entire process of how commercials are cast.  It's a can't-miss for actors of all levels! 

Plus, Dave gives career updates on some past BYOL guests!
