In this episode, Adam and Budi chat with Joshua Morgan, the founder of Artist Strategy, to talk about the business side of an acting career. From financial planning to networking, they explore how artists can build sustainable careers while navigating the transition from training to the industry.

Joshua Morgan is a versatile actor, director, and educator who has performed at prominent theatres across the U.S., including Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, Arena Stage, Theatre Under the Stars, Folger Theatre, Signature Theatre, and many more. He originated the role of legendary manager Shelly Berger in Ain’t Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations on Broaday and stayed with the production for four years.

Before moving to New York to join the last revival of Les Misérables, Joshua co-founded No Rules Theatre Company, the first dual-city theatre based in Washington, D.C., and Winston-Salem, NC. During his tenure, he produced award-winning premieres, directed acclaimed productions, and developed outreach programs for underrepresented communities, including the Deaf/Hard of Hearing.

As a director, his credits include In Love and Warcraft (Helen Hayes Nomination), Hedwig and the Angry Inch, The Last Five Years, and more. He has taught at esteemed institutions such as American University, Gallaudet University, and the University of North Carolina School of the Arts.

Joshua is also the founder of Artist's Strategy, an organization dedicated to helping freelance artists build sustainable careers and co-host of Creative Risk, a podcast exploring all things art, entrepreneurialism and everything in-between.
