Ep. 47: The Entertainment Industry from a Queer Perspective with Kalyn Hardman
In this episode Alison and guest Kalyn Hardman discuss common issues faced by LGBTQ+ actors in the entertainment industry, from class to auditions to on set. While Alison and Kalyn don't claim to speak for every member of our beautiful entertainment community, they discuss helpful tips for non-queer actors to be better allies for their LGBTQ+ peers. The two also share tips for recognizing and moving through our own innate prejudices, and navigating queer scenes on set. This is an episode relevant to everyone, and we're excited to hear your thoughts!

It can feel isolating in this digital age (anyone else trapped in a self-tape bubble?), but we don't have to go it alone. Alison invites you to join her circle of friends new and old as we tackle the industry together. Alison Haselden grew up as a child actor and singer (her first time on set was age 6!) performing in commercials, print ads, film, TV, professional theatre, and recorded music between Orlando, FL, Nashville, TN, and Los Angeles, CA. She's now Atlanta, GA based pursuing film and TV as well as screenwriting. Let's be friends!
