Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we chat with Chris Mitchell, a kid who grew up obsessed with movies and somehow ended up building a theatre that’s changing the creative scene in his city. Chris gets real about the messy, confusing, and unexpected moments that shaped him, the times he didn’t know which path to take, the pull of creativity that wouldn’t let go, and the experiences that pushed him toward something he never saw coming. What starts as a personal journey of figuring things out turns into a story about creating something bigger than himself, a space for artists, storytellers, and audiences to come together.
 
Chris shares the highs, the funny missteps, and the lessons that only theatre life can teach,  all with honesty and heart. It’s the kind of conversation that will make anyone in the arts nod, laugh, and maybe even tear up a little, remembering why they fell in love with this crazy, creative world.
 
Whether you’re an actor, director, designer, writer, or just chasing your own creative dream, Chris’s story is a reminder that following your passion isn’t always easy, but it can lead to something truly extraordinary, a place, a purpose, and a community that makes it all worth it.
