In this episode I dive into the vault to pull out one of my favourite interviews that I ever did. Back in 2017, I sat down with Adam Perona-Wright and had a wonderfully candid chat about my childhood ambitions, the immense pressure I felt post-training and my definition for when I will consider my career a success. --- Thank you for listening to this episode.

Ever since people discovered that I was going to be a parent, my peers have asked me whether or not I am going to give up on my acting career. Here are my thoughts... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wayneingramactor/message

I've been questioning the value of social media when it comes to building an acting career a lot lately and openly did so in my interview with Bethany Fenton recently. In this episode I discuss why I've been going about it all wrong through over-thinking and why the real value of social media is in the old adage "it's not what you know but who you know". - Thank you for listening to this episode.

I'm delighted to bring to you this first "In the Green Room" episode with the lovely actress, Bethany Fenton. In this interview Bethany and I sat down to discuss all things "show-biz" and the realities of being an actor from her perspective as someone relatively new to the industry including (but not limited to) the part that social media has to play in one's career and the high levels of objectification that actors experience.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wayneingramactor/message

There is a misconception that because acting is an enjoyable job that many people enjoy just as a hobby, there is justification for low wages and a culture of taking the work that professional actors do for granted. In this episode I discuss where this illusion may have stemmed from and why actors shouldn't be willing to accept this as the norm simply through their desire to work. - Thank you for listening to this episode.

Many people believe that actors love attention and in this episode I explain why this is nothing more than a myth. I break down my perspective and experience of trying to "hide" on stage by using theatre as my sanctuary and also discuss a recent study that was conducted about an actor's brain activity. --- Thank you for listening to this episode.

In this episode I dip into the archives from past interviews and present you with a clip from an interview I did on ActorChat TV in late 2015. It was a conversation with actors Michael Bott and Katie Davies-Speak and we discussed whether or not it really is important for actors to now have an entrepreneurial mindset. --- Thank you for listening to this episode.

It’s quite a sad state of affairs these days in the acting industry – particularly when I look online. I see a lot actors touting their opinions as if they are fact (two very different things). On top of actors touting their opinions in this way, there are also a huge amount of snake oil salesmen out there trying to pitch their products and services under the guise of “this is going to make you a success!” In this episode, I discuss why it is you should be careful what advice you take seriously! --- Thank you for listening to this episode.

When I was in my first bout of professional training in 2008-2011, I was on somewhat of a crusade to remind my peers that once they left the safe bubble of drama school, the true hard work would really begin, and that the industry was going to be unbelievably tough. In this episode, I explain why this it's incredibly easy to underestimate the difficulty of working within the acting industry. --- Thank you for listening to this episode.
