À propos de cet audio

 The actor’s journey is one of occasional highs and frequent lows. It is a path riddled with self-doubt and frustration as we question our career choices, wondering if we’ll ever really ”make it.” But it is those few moments of glory on stage or screen that can sustain us through all the setbacks and challenges. On this award-winning podcast, New York actor Patrick Oliver Jones invites fellow creatives to share three stories that offer a behind-the-scenes look at the creative life rarely seen in the glitz and glam of this industry. These conversations remind us we’re not alone in this often bumpy and winding journey of the performing arts.©2024, WINMI Media Art Divertissement et arts de la scène Musique

    Apologizing for My Own "Why I’ll Never Make It" Moment...
    Nov 14 2025
    In this brief update, I open up about the last several weeks—Broadway opening week, getting sick, and a recent injury—and how all of it pulled me away from releasing new episodes. I share what’s been going on, why the silence stretched longer than I wanted, and how grateful I am for the patience and support of this community as I get things back on track.

  • FINAL FIVE: Abbie Goldberg & Mason McDowell, Musical Theater Writers

    FINAL FIVE: Abbie Goldberg & Mason McDowell, Musical Theater Writers
    Nov 14 2025
    In the previous episode, Abbie Goldberg and Mason McDowell dove into their new musical 504 as well as the obstacles they’ve faced trying to produce their own works, and it was such an insightful conversation. But there’s still so much more to explore! That’s why I’m thrilled to have Abbie and Mason back here with me for the Final Five Questions—where we get a little more personal by uncovering lessons learned, hopes for the industry, and a deeper look at what drives them as artists. --- Why I’ll Never Make It is an independent production of WINMI Media and Patrick Oliver Jones.

  • Abbie Goldberg and Mason McDowell Turn a Movement Into a Musical

    Abbie Goldberg and Mason McDowell Turn a Movement Into a Musical
    Oct 31 2025
    Writers Abbie Goldberg and Mason McDowell are the creative team behind 504: The Musical — a new show inspired by the real-life 1977 sit-in that ignited the disability rights movement. What started as a 25-day protest in San Francisco became a landmark moment in history, paving the way for the Americans with Disabilities Act. Abbie and Mason share what drew them to musicalize this event and how they balance storytelling and activism in telling such an important story. We also talk about the ongoing challenges of accessibility within theater itself — from a festival that couldn’t accommodate their actors to the irony of competing for a grant against their own mentor. Through it all, their journey reflects the very message of their show: that change takes persistence, collaboration, and a little bit of creative rebellion. --- Why I’ll Never Make It is an independent production of WINMI Media and Patrick Oliver Jones.
