CenterStage is a podcast for those interested in how the mind of an artist works. We sit down with actors, directors, writers, and artists of all kinds to figure out just what gets their creative juices flowing.Hosted and produced by Sergio De La Espriella, CenterStage is intended for artists to speak freely about whatever comes to mind. We explore different creative techniques, how personal experiences affect art, and even tackles some heavier topics, such as race and gender equality within the theatre.
On this episode of CenterStage, Sergio is joined by Actor/Director/Producer Nick Bublitz.
They talk about how Nick got into the theatre, his journey from a small college in Illinois to LA to the University of Florida to where he is today, the importance of elevating the voices of underrepresented artists, the most impactful piece of art he has consumed, and much more.
