About this listen
Ever wonder how actors bring characters to life with such depth and emotion?
In this behind-the-scenes conversation, we dive into the character work of Megan, a gifted actress who played Maria in The Sound of Music. You’ll see exactly how she took lines off a script and turned them into a fully embodied human being—and what fiction writers can learn from that transformation process.
Inside this episode:
✔️ What theater taught her about building believable backstory
✔️ Why understanding your entire cast matters when shaping your main character
✔️ How rehearsals mirror the writing-and-revision process
✔️ Why letting your characters “play” in different scenes leads to stronger stories
✔️ The surprising ways secondary characters shape the protagonist’s arc.
