    The stage
    Such moving stories. Listening here feels like you have entered the mind of the professionals in this field. It’s so inspiring to feel the heart and connectedness these artists have to their work and all the intricacies and stories surrounding art and choices they have made in their creative lives! My only feedback is that this podcast seems to overlap with the film and TV podcast quite a bit and it would be interesting to shape the theater podcast with more interviews from those working on the stage in live productions.

    Engaging & Informative
    As someone who isn’t involved in performing arts & theatre, it’s great to listen to those who are passionate about it and exploring it to the highest degree.

    Inspiring look into creative minds!
    This podcast is always a great listen, the hosts never fail to deliver in-depth interviews that feel like natural conversations between passionate, creative people. The John Patrick Shanley episode is a personal favorite.

  • S. Classen
    Excellent listen!
    This podcast is a wonderful exploration of theatre and the writers who compose these works. There is a lot to be said about their processes, the meanings intended, and how their work comes to life on the stage. It is an interesting artistic discussion that doesn’t require one to have much theatrical knowledge or expertise. Instead it provides a refreshing medium to learn more about Theatre and Drama.

    A good listen!
    I love how this covers all aspects of the theatre and the artistic motivations behind experts in the industry. Episodes are consistantly creative and fresh, and worth the listen! There is rarely any information on the field of theatre, so I appreciate how The Creative Process has given a platform for artists in the perfoming arts.

    Excellent!
    It’s wonderful to get to hear authors, actors, and theater directors talking about how they approach their work. I particularly enjoyed the episode with François Clemmons

    Inspiring and thought-provoking!
    The Creative Process never disappoints! Intriguing conversations with talented, award-winning theater artists who have performed on Broadway and the West End, in touring companies and beyond. Lovers of the dramatic arts will deeply appreciate this behind-the-scenes look at theatrical production.

    An Insider View
    I appreciate being able to listen to the perspectives of the many speakers featured, and saw how that influenced their creative approach. Broadcasting and publicizing insight from the artists themselves helps us as the audience understand the meaning behind their work, and The Creative Process does a wonderful job with this!

  • Lyssyjordan
    Such Variety!
    I love how this podcast highlights the various creative mediums presented through the performative arts!
  • Skylard2
    Informative and engaging.
    Wow! So engaging. This series focuses on the process of creating theatre from all different angles. From directors to actors to the behind the scenes of the industry, there wasnt a role in the art of theatre making that was left untouched. I appreciated the detail in finding people from all different backgrounds and experiences. My favorite episode was Kate Mueths episode where she talks about her theatre company the Neo-political Cowgirls. It is a theatre dance company that tells stories of women in traditional theatre. I could listen to this podcast all day.

    WOW!!
    I absolutely love listening to podcasts from The Creative Process. They are so informative and I love how I get to learn a lot along the way. It was a great way to see other perspectives.
  • Andrew blue man
    An Appreciated Nuance
    The podcast takes on both fresh and veteran interviews with thought provoking discussion. The podcast market is saturated with a over abundance of a similar “type” of interview or meaningless discussion. This is where The Creative Process distinguishes itself regarding arts, culture, the environment, politics, and science.
  • Lyn G. G.
    Amazing and important work!
    So inspiring, I learn so much every time I listen! I highly recommend this podcast to everyone. You are doing great work here for the world and I think everyone deserves to know about it. The same goes for all of your podcasts!
