Let's recap two seasons of Stage Combat with Dr. Hurwitz and get to know a little more about her in the process!

BONUS EPISODE! "One Episode/One Listener: Pamela"
We had an amazing idea for a podcast episode. What if you could overhear a raw, honest conversation between Sean and one listener. In one episode.
Meet Pamela Bob. She's a veteran of several Broadway shows who reached out to us once the podcast was released to let us know how much the podcast has meant to her. Pamela and Sean started talking, and then they just kept talking. About what's seriously wrong with our industry: Being denied a voice. Bullying. The imposition of "family" constructs. Being labeled "difficult." The lack of mental health support in our workspaces.
And it's quite a conversation!
Spoiler Warning: "Relatively" spoiler free for Seasons 1 and 2.

Pamela Bob is a multi-faceted actor, having appeared as an actor regionally and in multiple off-Broadway and Broadway shows. As an award-winning screenwriter and actor, her original series, "Livin' On a Prairie", is a witty, surprising, and earnest exploration of one woman’s obsession with Little House on the Prairie. The show was an official selection of the Tribeca TV Festival, HollyWeb Fest, and Lift-Off Fest, and won best TV series at the LA International Film Fest. Pamela’s trademark intensity and comedic timing won her the Best Actress award at the LA International Film Festival. Pamela is also a professional makeup and hair artist and photographer. She lives in NYC with her husband and 2 kids.
