Fourth Wall: the podcast

Alaina Newell

Arts

Fréquence : 1 épisode/63j. Total Éps: 30

Theatre claims to be for everyone, but is it really? From elitist training programs to gatekeeping on Broadway, the industry thrives on exclusivity. Fourth Wall pulls back the curtain on who gets opportunities—onstage, backstage, and beyond. Join Alaina Newell for deep dives, hot takes, and unfiltered conversations on accessibility, casting, and industry bias. If you've ever felt like theatre wasn’t built for you, you’re not alone. 🎧 It’s time to break the fourth wall—because theatre should belong to everyone.

005: Breaking the Mold w/ Hillary Fisher

Saison 2 · Épisode 5

mercredi 25 juin 2025 • Durée 32:41

You’ve seen her make her Broadway debut in The Notebook, and now she’s swimming into history as Ariel in The Little Mermaid at Paper Mill Playhouse — but Hillary Fisher is doing so much more than just singing under the sea.

In this episode, we dive deep with Hillary about what it means to break the mold as a Black woman in theatre, how to hold your ground when the industry pushes back, and why playing an iconic role is both powerful and political. We also talk about wellness, movement, and making space for joy — from Pilates to tennis to the quiet power of rest.
