On the latest episode of ”Authenticated,” Kate invites on Tony Award®-nominated Broadway actress, director, playwright and artist L Morgan Lee for a creative conversation on fear, and what lives on the journey to getting to the other side of it.
L Morgan spent two decades of her artist's journey proving that a role is never the whole story. She made Tony history as the first openly transgender actor nominated for the award, for a performance in A Strange Loop that also carried her an Obie, a Lucille Lortel nod, and a Drama League nomination. This heartfelt conversation is about the life lived years before the artist resume and awards, the life lived outside of it even now, the rooms that prescribe what you're allowed to be, and the courage it takes to stop believing them.
L Morgan talks about what the recent friction of stepping into a new teaching role illuminated in retrospect for her younger student self, the trap of always feeling the need to do things ”right”, and the artistic practice of intentionally leaving room for your version of mess. Kate and L Morgan share their perspectives of rejecting the industry's dated narrative of typecasting, the differences between sharing softness and perceiving it as weakness, and why the industry's default of primary focus on one dramatic arc leaves so many rich supporting characters stories unexamined. Kate and L Morgan question the industry standard practices of today, in a thought-provoking manner to uncover what iterations of standard practice could be next.
The warm, experience driven and vulnerable conversation offered by Kate and L Morgan moves through academia past, present and future; Broadway auditions, the particular fear of ”what then?” that sets in after getting exactly what you asked for, and gorgeously closes on L Morgan Lee's definition of authenticity: daring to be.
