Onstage: Casting Call – Live from the Foyer | Passport to Broadway – Parent Perspectives

Recorded live in the foyer during CentreStage’s Passport to Broadway, this special episode of Onstage: Casting Call focuses on the parent experience behind the scenes. Hosted by Brian Coppock and David Greenwood, the conversation is joined by guest parent Ryan Keogh, who shares honest insights into supporting a young performer through training, rehearsals, performances, and professional opportunities. Together, we explore growing up in theatre from a family perspective, the role of education alongside creative commitments, child safety and wellbeing, and how parents can best support their children to develop confidence, resilience, and a healthy relationship with the industry. Recorded in front of a live audience, this episode captures the spirit of Passport to Broadway and highlights the importance of strong partnerships between families, educators, and creative professionals in creating safe, supportive pathways for young people in the performing arts.
