We're very excited to drop a bonus episode this week from our friends at Next Chapter Podcasts, who have done so much to bring actors, and especially Shakespeare, into the podcast space.

This episode features a conversation between Michael Goodfriend, Executive Producer of the Play On Podcasts, and the legendary Estelle Parsons of films like "Love, American Style," "Rachel, Rachel," "Bonnie and Clyde," for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, and so much more, both on screen and on stage.

The tortured early days of the Moscow Art Theatre, a sprawling behemoth that would come to employ hundreds of actors, directors, designers and technical staff, tour continents, survive wars and revolutions, and transform the world of the theatre forever.

In the Season One finale, we take a look inside one of the top training programs for actors in the country, the Drama Division at Juilliard, created in 1968 by John Houseman and Michel Saint-Denis. It features conversations with Michael Kahn (the first person to take charge of acting at Juilliard), Evan Yionoulis (current Head of the Drama Division), and Mary Lou Rosato (graduate of the legendary Group 1), along with an archived raw and unedited interview from an American Masters series with highly influential mask teacher Pierre Lefevre.
